Any celebration meal to which guests are invited, be they family or friends, should be an occasion for generous hospitality.

I remember on that occasion, Roz invited a group of friends to gather around a festive table for a meal, with flowers, wine bottle and a portrait of Edith as the centerpiece.

Being a good neighbour is about compassion, which is as warm-blooded as justice is cool-headed.

If you believe you are right, then you should believe that you can make the case that you're right. This requires you to deal with serious objections properly.

I do not see this as an occasion for celebration,

People should not expect the state to protect them from fraudsters. If we do, we get into the habit of neglecting our own powers of intellectual discernment.
