Look.... although Snopes or snoops, or scoops or whatever don't authenticate, so what?
The point is... that as long as you are not citing them as the author of something YOU PUBLISH it doesn't matter, what does matter though is that the sentiments expressed are in fact real, maybe not word for word, they are real and it is best that we all assume that everything written against some evil weapon is against all of us, for in fact they are.
