Do a little research on these people before telling me to get a grip.

There is some serious anti religiosity in the ReactOS community where
you don't have to look very deep to find it.  Nazis were political
ideologues who were also fiercely anti religious and totally racist.
They were at the extreme of having no respect whatsoever for religiosity
in others.  Hitler was a dictator and the Nazis were proud of this.  It
isn't just that people in the ReactOS community were mean to me once,
there has been a pattern of cruelty going on over the course of a number
of years, possibly a decade.  Get drawn into a religious discussion or
something similar on the ReactOS IRC channel, expect to get kicked out.

Threatening me with prosecution and prison time on the forums though is
recent, new, and arguably quite over the top.  Someone should call up
short people in the ReactOS community who are going too far.  Suggesting
that I don't have a history of trouble with the ReactOS community
without looking into what has happened yourself is disingenuous.  There
is a difference between heated discussions and discussions laced with
hatred.  Search the ReactOS forums for nute as well as zimbra.  You will
see that I have followed ReactOS for a long time and that things have
been getting worse, not better, over time for me.  I think there is a
lot of anti American prejudice in general in the ReactOS community, many
of these people are German.  I have experienced anti American sentiment
from my own German brother-in-law who my sister finally called up short.
Not all Germans have an anti American mindset.  I'm sure there are
people posting on the ReactOS boards that aren't anti American, or at
least I hope there are.

I am reporting to one open source community that is functional what is
going on in another open source community that is not in hopes that
something positive will happen.  The ReactOS community is the only
dysfunctional open source community that I have ever dealt with.  Sure,
tell me I have no idea what fascism is and dismiss my complaining
complete with a transcript to back it up.  I'm not a criminal, nor will
I profit in any way if the ReactOS project fails.  What have I ever said
in the ReactOS community that calls for threatening me with prosecution?
If nothing merits this, there is proof then that the ReactOS community
is troubled and possibly that this trouble is as serious as I suggest.
