For example, despite being confronted with Jeff’s comments suggestive of female sexual assault in my Goldstein story, commenter Angie said: So yes, Jeff may have said some really nasty things and will continue to do so, but they were always directed at adults, he never crossed the line and directed them at someone’s child.

Pointing out what a vile asshole Goldstein is and how he loves to wallow in the Internet sewer and even allegedly published the real life contact information of someone whose two year old was subject to sexualized slurs at Goldstein's site doesn't justify what she did. It may bring up the question of why he's not going to face any consequences for his behavior while she's unemployed, but they're two independent cases and can be judged independently. The fact that someone's an asshole doesn't mean that they deserve horrible things and whatever anyone does to them is okay, but by the same token if something bad's being done to you to you that doesn't absolve you of moral responsibility for your actions, either. One has nothing to do with the other. Ang, I haven’t seen many people trying to justify or defend this woman’s statements, they’re sick.

I'd rather dodge responsibility for creating even more future terrorists via our failing Middle East policies than accept it. And somehow this means lib'ruls never take personal responsibility. Okay, it was the same length, but it sure is clearer. And yet no less nonsensical. Shorter Inspector: I’d rather be too scared than not scared at all.

That's fair enough for me, allowing as for how I wasn't the injured party. I mean, since all lefties believe that there is no terrorist threat to the U.S., and even if there is we surely must deserve it, this single instance of taking personal responsibility for some idle death threats must be treasured for the tiny, rare, exceptional gem that it is. /generalizing Professor Frisch got carried away by a malicious groove, apologized, and resigned in atonement.
