perhaps it would blind him in some way at some point his desire to get your friendship
Probably this thought was also behind the decision, but it was deployed incorrectly and there's better ways...like commenting on my posts like you have.
I know there's people out there who will see it (my) reaction as an over reaction and that's ok, they're them and I'm me, I just feel some manners would have been appropriate. You know, when my brother @tarazkp, wants an image of a gun or some firearms related image from me he doesn't take it from my posts...he asks permission, my own brother. I think it's a courtesy a stranger could easily employ.
All the best for the day/night and hopefully that hurricane didn't do too much damage.
