What I meant by 'afraid' was that we should be 'aware' and 'cautious'... but never, never give up! You are right on with your comment that we not act like victims - and keep on blogging.</p>
<p>To point, I am apalled at the lack of blog response to this - not that it happened. Sad to say, the world is full of miscreants. I tried NOT to give this one press, instead by merely linking to the story...but not going into a detailed account I hoped it would bring the right attention. </p>
