130. We have differing definitions of the word courage

Yes, "safety" and "courage" are related concepts.

I've been ID'd by freeper conspiracists as an agent of George Soros, and was further ID'd in an article debunking birtherism.

Aside from a couple of odd phone calls, these keyboard commandoes don't concern me.

Absolutely, taking a public position and attaching your name to it involves a safety risk. That was my point. The OP's point is that anonymity allows people to be moral monsters, which is also true.
