The problem, however, is that EVERY SINGLE DERANGED POST there gets
automatically forwarded to my email, and I have to deal with this shit on a
daily basis. And some of it is extremely offensive, insulting, and there have
been some not-so-veiled death threats and personal attacks as a result.
So you'll pardon me if I don't think it's particularly funny.

I've tried and don't know where to do this, so if anybody else who can get this
information wants to let them know, feel free.

And that's been the curse of the net ever since its inception.
The rule of the game is that it's okay to say anything you want, about anybody,
no matter how offensive or incorrect...but to defend yourself (or someone
else), to take the person to task for it, THAT'S somehow wrong, it means you
can't stand the heat, or you're infringing their right to speak, or being rude,
or somesuch.
It's carte blanche for the assholes and the nutcases and the rude folk to say
any damned thing they want, no matter how untrue, hurtful, or libelous. And
most astonishing of all is that people buy INTO this bullshit.
The ones who badrap everybody the most, who feel that they have the right to do
whatever they want to other people, are always the ones who go most bugfuck
when somebody goes after THEM in return. THAT they don't like, THAT is unfair.
It's the logic of the guy who pees in the pool 'cause he thinks its fun.
I say fuck 'em.
