Okay, I'm going to discontinue this conversation after this post. It's 
hard enough (and unfair) to have to converse with a faceless entity.

I offered no legality to his attacks.  I plainly disapproved of them in 
my post, and I certainly offered complete /discouragement/ of such 
activity throughout my post.  "Crusade" was never meant to imply 
approval -- it was meant to emphasize the severity and focus (in a very 
disapproving sense) of the activity.

You are doing one of three things here: (1) you are intentionally 
misunderstanding what I explained clearly in my post or (2) you are 
trying to instigate more discord here (as an anonymous poster), or (3) 
you honestly misunderstood my use of English.  For your own sake, I'll 
assume number 3 even though evidence doesn't appear to be pointing in 
that direction.

But, I think your contributions are becoming part of the problem, 
anonymous, and my responses to you are carrying it further.  So with 
that, I will shut up lest I end up becoming the hypocrite too. :)
