Java was suppose to be secure and cross-platform yet...

I wonder what percent of typical security flaws are caused by language-specific features versus poor design decisions and human error (such as passing the wrong variable). I suspect most are the latter.

All it takes is a few bad apples to mess it up for everybody.

Your company was covering their ass so that if someone does that in the future they can point to the training and say "you were warned".

Agreed on both counts. The thing that confuses the heck out of me is why anybody would think an hour long session like that is going to change anybody who's really got problems with different people. It seems a totally pointless waste of time and effort instead of just dealing with assholes directly and effectively. And that's why even though I agree with you, I still see the PC police as making things sucktastic. It's like paying a tax to fund a completely wasteful program.
