I honestly do not know how IQ and the ability to judge the future outcomes of ones actions tie together.
I do know that confessing to crimes, and then saying that he’ll try to commit those same offences upon release is not a very sensible idea if he values his freedom from prison. On the otherhand perhaps the guy thinks his being a martyr for the cause and his openness will encourage others, time will tell.
It’s kinda rubbish that this is the only way to do this. Isn’t there some California law that says they haven’t to make unsubscribing easier? Can’t you just tell them you’ve moved to California?
