    Deny delay defend is what insurance companies say, deny defend depose is what the killer wrote on the bullets. Depose doesn’t make sense if you’re the insurance, they defend as in lawyers.

      it was Deny, Defend, Depose.

      Depose and Delay are interchangeable in this phrase; I’ve seen it written both ways

        depose also means removing someone from their position, so that is more appropriate for the bullet.

        Yeah, that’s right. Edited.

        Deny, Delay, Defend is the title of a book about insurance company tactics written in 2010.

        Deny, Defend, Depose is what the shooter had written on the shell casings.

        It’s only the shitpost community, I always feel like a nerd correcting stuff if it’s here but I can’t help myself.
