You should know you crossed into the territory of accusational confessions. You accuse others of not caring and sign-off with a hollow statement of sympathy for Hasan. It's an interesting juxtaposition that was probably not intentional.

It was not. But I suppose I sometimes can't help but mimic those I argue with.

I can see where it could be perceived as a sign of sympathy, but sorrow and sympathy are not the same.
