This appears sound at first and second glance, and is often recommended. Moderation is similarly considered to be constructive way to weed out what is not wanted. And gates and fences of the mind and language and behavior. Some folks recommend mail bombing offenders, stoning them with onlist opprobrium and ridicule, reporting them to whatever authority is willing to chop the tongues, toes and fingers of miscreants, and then there's the pleasurable notions of assassinating, butt fucking, well, pipe lay our lady but the vulgarine is mighty addictive, so back to what reasonable people do to the unreasonable: call them idiots, throw in the SHU, revoke their license to ape their betters, plot to rasp their human rights, then get down and dirty to rip their constitutional rights to shreds, and when push comes to shove, the uppities aiming payback, hazard your own rights by blowing the shit out of foreign and domestic enemies, so goddam frustrating is it to shut the whiners up who won't keep to their pre-ordained position under the puke spigot, fer chrissakes, well-mannered english-speakers are hard to come by, chinga tu madre, companero?
