 But since he is unknown we don't know who he is or isn't. In short it looked
 like - "we don't know who you are - we don't like your attitude - all you're
 saying is wrong and false - we want you out of here." Where "we" includes
 several posters here. Just sad to see. But history repeats itself. It has
 happened before - all over the world - and will happen again.
