the reason why i altered my own avatar is because something like the paris attacks do not happen every day and i felt moved to do so. that doesn't mean i don't feel sympathy for other victims or fail to do my part for them. in fact, the two things don't necessarily have any relationship to each other.
suggestion to be careful what you post on FB.
As George Carlin used to say, leave symbols to the simple minds.
