I too sense a Freudian slip in the timing of this thread that is
both cruel and disgraceful.

Give a dog a bad name eh!

A look at just some of the thread titles that this thread currently shares on our forum.

Shameful legacy-150,000 Kenyans Detained
Axis of Idiocy defends occupation/2660 Iraq deaths
Iraq War Casualty Figures - 2,660 civilians
Amish shooting When is it going to end?

Had a comment actually been made in the thread you refer to - such over-reactions could be thought understandable. But this is just another thread and the timing its timing unrelated to the thread referred to or any of the others listed in this post.
