Is this by any chance Evil Emile with a new moniker? Sounds a lot like him.

The guy is obviously nuts. He's probably also dangerous, and certainly he's disgusting. But I'm afraid that as far as his surviving posts are concerned, I feel I must support his First Amendment right to express his opinion, however revolting it may be.

SI is, of course, not a "public" site; you have to be a member to post. Nothing wrong with Admin giving him the axe if they want to. But I personally feel that the only grounds for getting booted should be extreme obscenity, threats of bodily harm, and of course spamming.

This may seem perverse--obviously he's enormously more evil than a spammer--but I don't like censorship.
