   No, Denis, you CANNOT consider my saying that psychedelics aren't known for   
   causing cardiac arrest as implying that he might have given her some.    
      
   I said that I was aware of Wahid's writings on psychedelics,  and that I never   
   saw him use any,  nor did I see any in his house, nor did I observe him at any   
   time in a state that could be considered anywhere near what could fall under   
   the broad category    
   of 'stoned'.   
      
   I observed him in person almost constantly when not sleeping for a week, and   
   have known him for 7 years, and have had consistent correspondence, including   
   many a Skype chat. Never met Roya in person. While this might not seem like   
   all that much it's far    
   far more than you can claim.    
      
   Now, I know very little of how the German or Australian equivalents of CPS   
   work.  But living in these (predominantly white) US, and having been involved   
   quite a bit with Black power and Chicano power activists,  I have quite a good   
   understanding of the    
   biases and discriminatory practices of CPS here,  and how it's an agent of   
   cultural genocide.    
   So, no, I'm not surprised at the possibility of German social services doing   
   similar to a brown single father.    
      
   His daughter is a very strong-willed child.  Only two months into a grieving   
   period,  I seriously doubt any parent could have kept up a facade about their   
   parenting style for a full week in such circumstances.    
      
   Now, you sure seem to be insinuating the possibility of some moral though not   
   legal culpability for Roya's death on Wahid himself with your talk of   
   psychedelics.   
   Yet, when I point out to you if you were hypothetically correct in the   
   baseless appraisal of his psychological state,  that needling him in   
   cyberspace might not be a good idea to do to a single parent,  you say that   
   such wouldn't make you at all culpable.   
       
   You can't have it both ways,  motherfucker!!!   
      
   I'm someone who doesn't have a problem telling people to go fuck themselves,    
   and Wahid is far from the only friend I have of similar personality. Over the   
   years, we've all done or share of telling people off despite the repeated   
   platitudes of our more    
   restrained friends such as "you catch more flies with honey than with   
   vinegar". Well, I ain't much for flies,  and sweet-toothed as I am, anyone who   
   says that never had good balsamic vinegar. I've blocked plenty of people,  and   
   probably been blocked by    
   plenty of folks who consider me an asshole. No regrets!   
   Yet, I have never once thought of wasting so much fucking time as to create   
   fake pages lampooning people,  creating websites just to ridicule then,  and   
   certainly never resorted to jobs at their personal life.    
   So when you claim your cyberspace actions toward Wahid as mere tit for tat...   
   no, asshole,  it ain't,  not even close!!!   
      
   And if you consider my grading you with a D+/C- rather than an F in the   
   manipulative skills department as a compliment... well, if that's what you   
   wanna do to stroke your ego, it's no skin off my ass.
