This post has given me more pleasure than all the others put together!
I do not intend to waste my time repeating myself ad nauseam.
OK, so you accept no responsibility for your actions. I'm not surprised at that.
The whole idea of any danger in my post is a mere shadow in your mind. If it were not for the pandemic, I should suggest that you get out more.
Unfortunately I can't tell you who has endangered their life as a result of your opriginal post as I do not have a list of readers of this page. However, our exchange of comments should have alerted them to the flippant and irresponsible nature of your view.
Just whom are you seeking to protect? Who has come to grief as a result of my comment? Or has fallen into danger? Anyone at all? Or are they all in your mind?
Just admit it was a stupid post of yours.
"I thought you would post something more intelligent and responsible than this."
These are a personal remarks, not views on my opinion.
See below. I will repeat, "dangerous by giving people a false sense of security".
I have no need to comment on your character, only on your opinions.
