Hi Michael (Blood),
I don't think that I compared your plea to keep the dispute off list with ridiculing those who oppose unverified pairings and unauthorized number piggybacking. You didn't mean to do that did you?
As far as cutting any ones hands off without a trial, this is a public forum, and I don't think that voicing our opinions about a serious issue is the same as a lynch mob especially when all sides have an opportunity to be heard if they so desire. I think Marcin's post was a good example of the benefit of this.

My 2 cents.

Well,
Mr. Fowler, I am strongly opposed to rape. However, I would be
extremely critical of a crowd who, upon accusation of rape, a person
were drug from his home, his hands cut off and hung to death in public
without a trial - in fact, no opportunity to say anything at all -
especially if I had known the person for over 15 years and he had ALWAYS
behaved honorably.
Yes, I would object to the process. I would want a trial. I would
want the defendant to have representation.
Perhaps you would perceive that as my being pro-rape? If anyone
protests a lynching, they must be advocating for the crime for which the
person is accused.....Interesting perspective.
Sincerely, Michael
