Sometimes?

The easiest way to get killed by people in rage is to tell them the naked truth.

I don't think that is true.

People claiming to be brutally honest, are often far more interested in being brutal than in being honest.

That may be true. But I didn't say it goes this way.

It makes a big difference whether someone only claims to be honest or is actually honest.
