It was incorrect to ban Shalom Israel. His comments were ridiculous, but he was making a point. Pigdog was using the same tactic making asnine comments in posts in 318, 319, 321, 322, 323, 324, 325, 328, 329, 331, 332 and many more. Pigdog made no intelligent point, just stupid attacks to bump the thread to shill for the fairtax. Shalom was just responding in kind.
Shalom Israel was banned because he was a retread.
Nihao, Mathemagician are two of his previous names.
