Educating The On-line Scammers About Our Agenda
Trying to raise a few dollars for SOS by selling something on craigslist. Don't know where this scammer is from, but I don't see why they should be treated any differently than anyone else I deal with these days:

Are you posting stuff on CraigsList representing SOS? Do you think that's a good idea?
I really think it is the worse kind of idea to discuss politics if you are out selling something. You should always assume that somebody showing interest in something you have to sell is legitimate until they try to run off without paying. When I sell stuff on line, I don't care who they are as long as they do honest business with me. I am in no position to quibble politics when trying to sell stuff, and my guess is, you aren't either. But, you do have the right and responsibility to avoid certain kinds of transactions, like checks of any kind on craigslist. But that's all you need to say. Since SOS is a bonafide charity (isn't it?), you might look into eBay as another place to sell. There might be a special status there for that kind of organization. And of course anyone who doesn't like SOS, can stay away.

Well, no...I wasn't placing an ad under the SOS name, but in any case, I was in no danger of selling this person anything. the other things you mentioned are kind of ingrained into my lifestyle. If I was concerned about how my politics are interpreted, I wouldn't be chairing this corporation. The whole point of this organization is educating people about the problems and supporting them in the face of it. wouldn't make much sense avoid the subject in light of that
