and that really bugs you, doesn't it? :-)

As I said, I would not participate in such tactics, nor do I condone them by
others, but I also recognize that this kind of speech is legal and part of
the process. So you have the questions of personal acceptability, social
acceptability, and legal acceptability. Separate questions. And a more
nuanced answer than a nine year old can provide. Is that such a bad thing?
As you should already know from my years of posting on this list, I rarely
answer questions with a simple yes or no. Complex questions require complex
answers.
