You're right, of course; such charges are a double-edged sword. But in the first place, the charge is just the most pathetic, stupid ad hominem response imaginable. What, you're not allowed to publicize a crime, except at a time the criminal's friends find acceptable? Their charge shows an utter contempt for the law, and a shamelessness in flaunting that contempt.

As far as I'm concerned, any response to such dirtbags is just fine, including, "Yo mama!" and "In your nose with a rubber hose."
