I've quite literally never seen someone stoop so low as to use someone's dead relative to prop up an argument that can't stand on its own. My condolences.

Thanks. It's a personal data point and I mention it to acknowledge that for all of my promoting of this "freedom", there are real and tragic consequences that cannot be glossed over.

I know that ideas and the words that define them are the proper path, but for such a smug, self-satisfied, and small-minded jerk such as ythl, I'd like to take it outside and wipe the stupid grin off of his face.

Whether he was trolling or being serious is beside the point. It's the equivalent of 'ironic' racism. It's still in bad taste and makes them a bad person who should feel bad.
