5. No they cannot be ignored

yet I feel that people who care really won't be distracted or influenced by the discounters, deniers and people throwing in obfuscatory BS to muddy the waters. People who really care, think. And it doesn't take much thinking to detect the agenda of people like you mentioned. I will answer them to let them know their game is known, but I never take their bullshit personally, they are only fooling themselves and others that are looking to be fooled. Just my opinion. How to handle them? STICK TO YOUR PRINCIPLE AND THE TRUTH. It defeats them every time.

Are you sure they 'don't get it'? Erich Bloodaxe BSN Dec 2014 #1
