Just a Reminder to all Warpath Members

This is in no way an indictment on any posts in this thread, I just wanted to remind everyone that the flow of information during a developing crisis such as this is very often confusing, incomplete and misquoted, at best.

Every reporter, blogger and media-type is rushing to get the latest quote and lead and throw it up on the Internet. Typically in situations like this, several weeks later when the full story comes out you can look back over the initial reports and find truck loads of misinformation, misquotes and unchecked facts.

I'm confident that all of our thoughts and prayers are with Sean and his family at this time, so let's keep level heads and take the information we get with a grain of salt.
