Seriously, guys...let's not express thoughts of violence. As Memnoch has pointed out previously, Jake is no longer here to defend himself. He's gone, we can go back to where we were before.

OK, I will not kill him for now

Okay, I am not talking about the Moderators here, but the attitude of many of you is really making me angry. You are just proving the point that was being made in another thread about the double standard you are displaying regarding the attack on an American target as opposed to other horrible incidents in other parts of the world.

This forum, like lots of other forums on the internet, is FULL of callous, insensitive remarks regarding horrible incidents, both recent and in the past, that have happened to other peoples, sometimes at the hands of the United States.

I haven't seen a single one of you calling for the banning of the people making those remarks, much less talking about punching them out or killing them in real life. And you are even blind to the friggin double standard! MY GOD IT IS MAKING ME SICK!!!!!!!!!!

Dio, I think the issue here is timing. There is a time for his criticisms, but not now.

Steady, Dio. I know a lot of people who feel as you do - and I tend to agree - but really, my friend, this is not the right time. Most people can't take it just now. Stay cool.

For some of the things he said, it really wouldn't have mattered when he said them. They would have pissed me off a month ago, and they will piss me off a year from now. I'm open to listen to all views, especially ones I don't agree with, but that went too far.

There are a lot of great people on this board. I suppose you could definately say that this board has a double standard against $ss holes. Since the majority of the board is well mannered and even tempered, anyone who is not would definately have a hard time here, and I could easily see them feeling a little bit outcast and feeling like everyones against them. You're right, there is a double standard, and I'm glad you brought this up. I'm sure I won't be alone when I say that we should not be so hard on sick bastards who appreciate mass murder.

Maybe we should get some more a$$ holes here that appreciate and find excitement in the slaughter of thousands. $hit, it's too bad Hitlers dead because he would have loved Jake.

Once again, thank you for making a very important point.
