I am not blaming the guy.

I think it's a good thing if attention is paid to these things. However if I remember correctly it took quite a toll on the guy dealing with all the government BS.

(That's why it wasn't funny.)

Meta: Writing stuff online is quite something. When I wrote my comment I did not even consider that it could be interpreted as me blaming the guy for challenging bad government it systems. In a conversation this could easily be rectified with a quick exchange. ( I could have picked up the expression on the other persons face. ) All kinds of context clues are missing. Also I don't know if this will be actually read by all people who passed by and also understood it that way. I am glad that it wasn't something serious.
