Damn.

When Ms. Malkman eats a power pellet, her head should change into that unhinged crazy-eye picture that is found all of the cyberwebs. If you did that there’s no way the committee could overlook you.

By the way, liberals in the US are going to have to drop the self-conscious expressions of “we won’t descend to that level” in re-asserting sanity and taking the high road in public discourse. You DON’T descend to that level, and that is good enough. You don’t need to keep spoon-feeding the fascists the idea that you are overly pre-occupied with the unethical (but barely legal) behaviour of the type they engage in, or give the impression that silly, bourgeois manners are that important or that you can be manipulated through “guilt by association.” Just keep pointing out forcefully how unethical and criminal they are.

If other liberals engage in unethical practices, let them answer for it themselves.

On the other hand, I know for a fact that it was Michelle Malkin who published their phone numbers for a wide Internet audience. And if you say she didn’t intend her readers to at least harass the UCSC students, then you are either lying or stupid, because there could have been no other purpose in posting it. (Or do you think she was doing it to show her support of their organization?) Did she intend death threats? Probably not, though if she had three brain cells, she might have anticipated them. But when she learned about the death threats, she *reposted* the numbers. And said something like, “I don’t condone death threats, but here’s their info again.” As I’ve pointed out before, shades of Henry II and Thomas a Beckett.

So your “no moral equivalency” argument is actually correct, but not in the way you think. The students who have received death threats and harassment are essentially innocent victims of Malkin’s venality.

I say we post the personal phone numbers of someone in the same town, in case they happen to be the tire-slashers.

That’s the logic at work here. Malkin is a venal bitch.

is that your “signature” I see on Jeff Goldstein’s petition?

I mean aren’t they all trying to boycott the lefties, troublemakeers, etc, and trying to publicly shun us?

Just wondering

the Santa Cruz students are slashing tires and throwing eggs at the house of septugenarians

Are those the ones whose numbers were posted on the internets? Or is it enough that they are all Santa Cruz students — after all, they pretty much look the same. :rolleyes:

How’d you manage to get an STD on your righteous wrath? Be careful where you put it, for chrissakes.

No, that was the demonstrators. Not that any of the ‘who did what first’ stuff matters, or else I could walk down the street hitting random people in the shins with my cricket bat of retribution (’cause I’m sure everyone’s something at some time to deserve that, and my righteous wrath burneth like Jeff Gannon’s loins).

Dude, I say the same thing to you I say to Jack: if people are behaving illegally, you call the fucking police. You don’t post their home addresses and phone numbers on the goddamn Internet and incite others to harrass them. Jesus Christ, these people have families. Do they deserve to be harrassed for some dumb shit their parents did? Really. Think about it.

I agree. In fact, when anyone is accused of doing something wrong or illegal, we should just post their personal contact information on the Internet instead of calling the police. Clearly, having angry vigilante mobs give them death threats is far more effective than following the rule of law.

Again, are these trolls for real, or are they parodies?

See Here and Here.
