that is a first amendment right to an alternative viewpoint.
Lumping an entire class or group into a statement made to cast that
class or group in a negative light nearly always precedes hate-filled
rhetoric.
Chuck, would you call this name-calling?
"As for my influence, of course you reject intelligent & factual input,
that's why you're a member of the Krause-obessed fascist whacko clique."
That's from Doug Kanter, one of the folks you mentioned in the post you snipped.
Or,
"Actually, she always HAS been. But, since she doesn't fit the Cosmo model
image, she doesn't garner favor with children like JimH."
from the same.
This was from one on your 'good guy' list. Is the question unanswerable?
The answer to yours is yes. But, the slope of the line tangent to the
name-calling per day frequency curve is definitely positive.
