All I’m saying is, this is the Internet. You have no idea if this guy or guys is/are who they say they are. It has happened before (see DITHF). EVERY time there is a tragedy, people come out of the woodwork to prey on the victims and those expressing sympathy. I’m just saying be cautious.

"Be cautious"? With all due respect, SW6906, you're the one I'm feeling uneasy about right now.

"DITHF" So they're all fake Germans now, eh? For crying out loud, what in the world happened to you personally when the fake German was exposed as a fake German? Did you lose your computer? Did you lose your ability to write? Did the fake German steal your thoughts, plagiarize, do anything to hurt you or any of your loved ones? I sure hope you didn't send him a key to your house. That would be absurd, but hey, this whole paranoia your espousing is straight out of the theater of absurd.

Do you believe that any troll would suddenly be able to control thought or change anything about our freedom here?

There is a great deal lost when you close yourself off to learning something new from someone who very well might be who he/she says they are.

If you are in fact an American, have you ever considered how close-minded and repressive you sound worrying about someone writing on the Internet?

Besides, this is about a catastrophe in China where I am praying for all in China who were affected by this earthquake.

Ya wanna try and take away my right to feel compassion, and sadness over their loss? Ya gonna tell me I have no right to pray for those lost in this devastating catastrophe?

Get real.
