Another point of view taken to an extreme, I guess. You may be forgetting that when there's talk of lynch mobs around here (wait, when was that?!), it's figurative. Despite his love of firearms and insanely fast cars, I'm sure you'd agree that michaeld is not advocating capital punishment for JBall and billyp. So, I'm not sure how your post is appropriate or relevant. Are you saying to ignore it and hope and wish that the mean people go away or just get nicer?
