Heads' up, everyone. It's not "bashing" or "smearing" anyone, if you claim you're not making offensive epithets but just "making an observation".

Look, I know you're just trying to provoke an all-out flamewar here. Par for the course. But alling someone a bigot as an observation is not "smearing" and "bashing." I'm not misrepresenting anyone's beliefs; I'm making an observation on people's actions. The owner of the site seems to be in agreement.

Can I get your take on this, Jim? Under what circumstances is it okay for someone to post offensive tripe such as this? If you say this isn't bashing, I'll consider it your personal authorization that I can take my own gloves off.
