#1- Everybody pushes "View Post" anyway,
so Alerting is an exercise in futility.

But #2- I WANT this persons comments visible in all their "glory" for everyone to read and associate with his/her Screen Name,
and also the Screen Names of those who support this kind of bullshit.
You can go back up top,
and view the Screen names of those who recommend this by pressing the "Thread Info" button.

I wish this entire thread was at the top of the Greatest List
so EVERYBODY could view this shameful display,
and KNOW exactly what we are dealing with here.
Sunlight is the best disinfectant,
and EXPOSURE is the best remedy.

Though you will NEVER get this handful of willful distorters to ever admit an error,
the vast majority of those who read this thread are smart enough to see through this kind of
divisive propaganda, and are clever enough to recognize pathetic weaseling when they see it.
It is for those readers that I post my comments in this thread.
