This guy is the worst scum of the earth I've run into lately. Hell, the Neo-Nazis ought to make him their poster child." The above is pretty much verbatim from a Jewish friend of mine who has read this little escapade. My thoughts are less friendly than this but I'll save them for now. What I think needs to be done is for us in the Usenet community to form a legal defense fund so that Brad can file a libel suit against this asshole and his cohorts in the newspapers. The one way to crush such drivel is through their pocketbooks. If Brad does not have the time, then surely we can find someone else who has been slandered or libeled. It really does not matter which side of this issue you were originally on. Being for or against tasteless jokes is not irrevelant. What's happened now is that a cowardly little pinhead, after failing to achieve his goals through legitimate channels, has betrayed all of Net-dom with his taking his whining little crybaby beef to the media. It's exactly this kind of low rent, stab-in-the-back drivel that promulgates the bad-jew stereo- type. This is the old "if i can't have it, nobody can" attitude that most people shake shortly after sheding their diapers. I'll volunteer my time to administer such a fund if there is any interest. I'll also kick in a couple of hundred bucks to get it going. What do you think, netlanders? Are we going to let this cesspool of a person ruin the net for everybody? I sure hope not. Let's get a discussion going. I've changed the subject line to "Sue the Bastard" to reflect the new subject thread. Lets talk it up and get moving!! John De Armond gatech!stiatl!john
