Everything I said applies to this thread, him, you and anyone else. It addresses humanity as a whole. I said his life was not in the same position because he's there freely and can leave if he so chooses.
I do not hate him and I don't want to continue this type of discussion further.
If he wants to share more, that's fine.
Hey, it's his thread, not mine.
It just struck me in a bad way with how he worded his post, how the media have behaved and how people here in the Usa and Australia have behaved about this.
Plus I may possibly had lost an ex-gf in Sendai.
I know people in Japan which are safe and I go to them for information. Plus Japanese message boards.

Sounds like you should have made you're own thread about the problems with humanity and not badgered him about it.

Going out on a limb, and assuming you're human... next time maybe you should just say that it's you who is "full of crap" and "doesn't care about the Japanese" instead of condemning others based on mere speculation.
Originally posted by redmage It was fully apparent that your comments were directly aimed at Silent Thunder; so to come back now and attempt to paint them as broad sweeping generalizations on humanity seems highly disingenuous.

Again, learn the difference between how to state an opinion, and making direct accusations/claims. If a thread upsets you, walk away from the keyboard and approach it later with a level head.edit on 3/17/11 by redmage because: (no reason given)

You have no idea who I am, why I'm here, what I risk; what deeper feelings and experiences and motivations lie below surface attitudes. I'm guessing you have led a rather sheltered life.
I could go on to justify myself and explain further, but why bother? It's just a messageboard, right?
I wanted to keep a running commentary on ATS, including photos, but you know what? I don't have to take this kind of treatment from posters such as yourself on top of everything else I have to deal with right now.
