Hi,

I never asked for an apology and would not expect one.

The fact that people that feel it is O.K. for these type of "jokes" is what I find truly revolting even moreso than the subject of the thread.

HarryT, you and JsWolf are representatives of this site and an extension of Alex in a way and should exercise some decorum and restraint even in the type of posts you write.

I have a fine sense of humor, I think so any way but there is just something very insidious about the posting of the senseless slaughter of a human beings.

Even if it was a "joke" there strikes me as something more behind the comment that should not be expressed here on this forum.

Then again, two editors here feel swell with the comment and this is very telling of the current editorial swing here that I do not agree with and will not support with visiting and letting the ads appear on my screen to show my discord.

I will pop over here to see if things change but I feel there is something missing, integrity wise when these comments are tolerated and even defended when these are the types of comments the subject of said book might make and blow off as a joke.

Where would the outrage be then?

I feel very strongly these comments should not be tolerated and certainly not defended.

The " spite my nose" comment just shows the fact I really care of what I say and am feeling very well that I am not losing much in light of the defense by HarryT above.

For those whose moral compass is fine by these comments or "jokes" as they are labeled, that is for your conscience and I feel mine is clear by voicing my opinion and "free speech".

WOW, free speech and saying a certain part of the population is O.K. to be victims of a murderer.

Bit of a stretch for me.

David
