If you can't say it with your name attached then it is not worth saying. It is always more fun to talk shit about someone to their face than behind their back.

Either GP is up there with Madonna, Bono and McLovin or then just proving his/her point!

His name makes me think he has his pinky up to the side of his mouth and he is petting a kitten.
And i'm sure Rule 34 applies. :)

If you aren't afraid of saying it, it's probably not worth saying at all. And swearing at people isn't the only thing anonymity and freedom of speech is used for.

Then make an account with your full real name and address. Just because you are afraid of something does not mean you should not say anything.
I am a security guy, aside from principles I am a prime spear phishing target. No way am I going to risk giving anyone any information about me, even something as simple as my preferred sentence structure can be valuable. I know first hand just how clever people can leverage tiny snippets of someone's life into incredible disasters.

I think I'll pass. There's literally no reason to put your own personal information out there for the world to see.
Neither am I.
-I think you either misinterpreted my reply and thought I was against preserving anonymity on the Internet or replied to the wrong post.
As a long time user of anonymous image boards I can assure you I am not against anonymity at all.
I've seen first hand just how crafty people can be trying to figure out someone's personal information.
Did you know Skype embeds the account name in the video call screenshots when you use Skype's built-in screenshotting tool?

If you are a security guy, you should know well how to get a throw-away email address and use that to create an account on SoylentNews (over TOR if you are extra-paranoid). Note that apart from a (freely chosen) user name and an email address (which you don't need to show publicly), you are not forced to give any information.

So I guess no German person should have ever said "We shouldn't prosecute the Jews".
