Rude members who tend to chase others away, trolls who pretend to be something they are not.
"If ever there were a diabetic trailblazer, the honor should go to James William Quander, the longest-living African-American with type 1 diabetes on record. Born in 1918 in Washington, D.C., he was diagnosed with diabetes in early 1924, shortly before the age of six." Diabetes Health gives us his very inspiring story in the link below.
