Killfile problem
I have killfiled D-Mac, Annika1980, Rita and RichA... yet I am still
subjected to their **** because you guys can't resist responding to their trolls. It would be more pleasant for us all if you could resist. |

If it really concerns you so much, then learn to filter properly. Don't just killfile individuals, killfile all threads started by them plus all responses within threads from them. Or just learn to use your intellect and judgment and ignore what you don't like. Whatever you decide, stop asking others to modify their way of doing things simply simply because you can't be bothered to modify your way of doing things. Nobody is on usenet for the purpose of making life easier for you. Pete |

And I don't require your permission for anything. |

And I don't require your permission for anything. censorship of what is deemed unwanted or undesireable always seems like such a pleasant and benign thing until it is leveled at you either in reality as you're suggesting or through NSP censorship or the old-fashioned way you controlled kids on the playground you didn't like, by negative peer pressure of isolating and beating them up until they went away. Maybe that's OK, but maybe it's not because what happens if YOU become the target of this NG's silencing efforts, or your NSP's censorship, or when your government says that no one with a "." in their name can post? Censorship in any form is dangerous, it is an abomination, and it is a very slippery slope down to where the government gets involved and lays rules on people as to what they may and may not say. Those governments are usually called closed or tyrannical or dictatorships when they attempt to control the press. I think you should re-read the First Amemdment which, among other things, guarantees the right to be stupid and say stupid things but it also gives others the right to ignore stupid people. So, if you're not smart enough to use more advanced filtering than just simple killfiling/plonking, why not give the benefit of the doubt to those you disagree with and simply not look at anything they say as an OP or in reply to others. But, be very careful because you may find that you've lost all your former friends and casual acquaintances because you put them into a bad guy bucket and after that there's nothing left but your own golden voice crying in the wilderness. If the Bill of Rights teaches us nothing else, it is that everyone no matter their race, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, genger, or any other tangible attribute has the same and equal right to freely express themselves. In fact, the true test of "free speech" is to knowingly give those you violently disagree with a chance to be heard. Sometimes, a really interesting thing happens when one is open minded - they actually hear threads of thoughts from people they hate and occasionally change their minds. But, if you stamp out all dissenting throught, you're left with only your own small mind and no one left to talk to at all. So, think about it before you foment anarchy here and try to tell others they are being obnoxious lest you become the obnoxious one. In other words, never throw strones out of a glass house. -- HP, aka Jerry Don't be a fop or a blooter, make only pithy comments on Usenet |

The internet is international, asshole! I don't care about Limeys, Canucks, Frogs, Nazis, Japs, Chinks, or Gooks, I only care about Americans so when I speak of our rights, if them aliens want to enjoy what I have, they they can apply for legal residency, wait the required number of years, they petition for citizenship and take the rigorouos exam. Beyond that, I don't give a flying **** for all the foreign assholes in the entire world as they are all either my military enemy or my ecomomic enemy or both, and my avowed notion is to get them the **** out of my country any way I can. All these assholes do is complain about the USA, so I say good riddance to bad garbage - just go back to your dictatorships, socialist regimes or any other suppressive form of government, but leave my country allone. And, stop flooding my country with cleaply make goods that are unsafe, often poisonous, and so shoddily built that they fly apart in the simplist crash test. In short, all you allhole aliens stay in your own country that you've already ****ed back into the Dark Ages. We don't want you here and would you please leave voluntarily or we'll throw you out by the ass. the Constitution was written solely by and for American citizens and has no power or applicability to anyone who is in this countryl illegally, so **** off foreign idiots, just stay away and we'll all be much happier. Upset with your own government? Don't cry on our shoulders, go back and fix the problems you yourself created and stop trying to dummy down out country to represent all your strange languages, dress codes, and religiouis beliefs. You come here, we speak English, we don't bow down and face Mecca and we don't want your kind here. Ditto for the queers - don't like it here, then leave, and stop ****ing up perfectly good works like "gay." Remember that under God and under our laws, marriage is a union between a man and a woman and not between two queers pokeing each other in the asses. We consider that sort of nonsense to be immoral - and illegal. -- HP, aka Jerry Don't be a fop or a blooter, make only pithy comments on Usenet |
