Justice? The people who were afraid of Google's reaction where the ones he linked to, not Jeremy Palmer himself. Even if he is a spammer, how is this justice?

Good point. Maybe Jeremy can get a new gig doing reverse SEO. On peoples competitors. Apparently he already has the cred.

It is really sad that instead of discussing the merit of his argument, we are debating the quality of OP's site.

It is ridiculous that I have to police my site for low quality inbound links or risk getting banned (even more so for mom and pop webmasters who are more susceptible to link penalties). Lastly, if you are penalized, try recovering unless you are big brand like Overstock or JCPenney with millions per year in Adwords spend.

No it's not, because his argument is making the assumption that his content is high-quality.
