Do you take umbrage at all epithets or just those directed at you? For instance, when you characterize people as "religious extremists", should those folks take umbrage and ping Jim Robinson?
This stuff is getting out of hand, walsh. Labelling people on FR as "murderers" is absolutely above the pale, along with all the Nazi references.
And, it doesn't appear to be waning.
Freepertoo did not direct any epithets at me. Rather, he (or she) advocates closing down all voices which he perceives as not agreeing with his position on the Schiavo case. He doesn't even know what my position is on the Schiavo case. Like so very many people who've been posting about this case recently, he just leaps to the assumption that, because I don't toe the exact same line as most, I must therefore be "pro murder."
That is preposterous on its face. To defend such nonsense -- yes, such extremism -- does not speak well of you.
