- And sad.

- Cant you guys leave the poor fellow alone; I know that in isolation the
- odd prank or dig is harmless; but this is getting out of hand.
-
- Why do you pick on him? Is it because, like racists and other bigots,
- you single out a person (group, religion etc) to attack to bring
- yourselves together against a common "enemy"?
-
- Who cares if he has a personality you think funny? Thats no reason to
- attack him EVERY SINGLE DAY (as I see in this group. He deserved it?
- So did the Jews in Nazi germany and the blacks in slavery.
-
- I do not want our news network to become a something that alienates anyone.
- I though people in all countries talking would maybe have the opposite
- effect.
-
- I nerly mailed the proposal for the group alt.fan.omar to the appropriate
- postmaster complaining at the abuse of the network; the next time I see
- an offencive article, I may well do so.
-
- Please grow up and have fun!
