It's clear that many Klarinet members view the list as a sort of community -
many refer to it as such - and the fact that they should want to use that
community as an airing ground for a broad range of feelings and opinions -
especially in times of tragedy - is neither
surprising nor offensive, even if the list was generated for other purposes.
I only hope that we can continue to function as a community - and to
strengthen our sense of community - because I think the world needs the
unity of diverse peoples now more than ever.

Well put, Anna. This IS a community. And, in addition to what you have
written, it is my hope that, in the days ahead, we will find solace and
healing in our music making.
