I think it’s worth posting his actual statement at the other time, so others may learn from L4L’s noble outlook:

> Actually I’ve thought long and hard about this and have decided not to.  
> The man who got himself killed does have family and having him identified publicly as a cause of a pitting would be hurtful in the extreme to those mourning his death.
> 
> Its not THEIR fault.
> 
> Now you can take this as an act of moral cowardice on my part(though I believe that to do otherwise would be kicking people when they’re down) or you might share my opinion that I’m showing some sensitivity to those who are going through a pretty bad time at the moment.

> If you believe that I would lie on my mums soul then there is no further point in carrying on this discussion.
