It was pretty personal and rather vile.

And that is when I decided that I wasn't going to sit by when others were targeted either. So I have one alert and it got a jury who all agreed with me.

I am not going to alert because I disagree, just personal (not necessarily directed at me) and rather vile.

I am done.
