OMFG - This is Awful!
Wow..Can't believe this actually happened. A good reason to brew in a carboy.

Parental negligence at its finest. It's a shame that child was in that environment and our systems failed to protect them.

Not sure if the moderator or other members feel the same way but I find the above quote quite insensitive and offensive.<Post removed by author>

To each their own, however I still believe we have a freedom of speech and should be able to say what we want, feel and believe. It's what makes us the country we are.Joeg wrote:Not sure if the moderator or other members feel the same way but I find the above quote quite insensitive and offensive.<Post removed by author>
As for the hops comment I personally took it as a way to try and lift the tension to a horrible story.

Re: OMFG - This is Awful!
That's how I saw it also. The whole thing is very sensitive and tragic. I don't think the hop thing was an attempt to make light of it, but could have been construed that way, so I think it was the right thing to remove it and apologize when it offended someone. Well done for that, and cheers to you both, Joseph and Geoff.Keith wrote: As for the hops comment I personally took it as a way to try and lift the tension to a horrible story.

Re: OMFG - This is Awful!
I reflected over the past hour and commend Geoff for removing it and apologizing. I'd like contain my judgement to that statement and that Geoff is probably a decent chap. Maybe I should've pm'ed him first to tell him my feelings. Live and learn for me and Geoff, I'm sorry as well, I didn't mean to evoke feelings and I only thought about how I felt and what I thought you felt. Cheers everyone.
