3. I understand it can be uncomfortable to be accused, or even just scrutinized. But if you know something's very far from the truth? Would it hurt to be accused of having two heads?
To borrow a phrase, if someone is accused of being anti semitic, this could lead others to believe it. Having two heads is impossible.. but to be thought of as anti semitic, in my mind, is closer to be thought of as ignorant.
Would you allow it if someone "suggested" another was a peadophile? Both are illegal here in the UK (anti semitism falls under "inciting racial hatred" I believe)..Installing the "report it" button (Dinah's suggestion sounds perfect by the way) would remove all of this..
If you use outlook for your emails I might even be able to work out how you can just press a button to send the appropriate reply!Nikki
