I can cope - managed this far, I think the real point was that as Annie said she made it into an attack and used that to open the floodgates. It’s a polar opposite from what I would do, and whether It’s a weird foible of mine to not be seen to do something that I would feel would be egregious, I didn’t want even those cultists thinking I had done something like that for the reasons Wad made it out to be.
I am probably not making much sense.
Dynamo, you are making perfect sense. If anyone takes the time to track what and how you write here and on FB, they would see that you clearly have a sense of right and wrong. Yes, you can be provocative (I love that about you, btw, not that you asked! <g>), and you can handle blowback better than anyone else I've seen, but you absolutely (at least to me) have a moral compass, to which you are consistently truing yourself. I'd take your sense of ethics any day over most of HW's "fans" who sent junk mail to
@KRowland, posted photos of dead Bluejays, trolled your private FB page and did disgusting things with your family photos... I'd line up behind you in a heartbeat.
And I totally get why you'd want to clear your name, and imho that was the correct and appropriate thing to do... go to the authorities, don't sling around false speculations, get the facts, and put them out there.
Once again, kudos to you!
