No jorj, you got me all wrong. I am absolutely showing no disrespect for the victims in Littleton, and actually have relatives in the Denver area that have been close to the situation and have shared in the profound and immeasureable grief and saddness. My aggravation has been in regards to the name calling and people bashing that takes place under the guise of "discussing" the pros and cons of a company. I have been harping on Janice et al to stop their taunting and unnecesary and uncalled for condescending remarks, and name calling and put downs for several months now, and her calling Kelly an "inbreed" really stung as that was what Klebold and Harris had been called. Make what you will of the similarities, and if you want to call attention to someone going overboard, I suggest you direct this to Janice Shell et al with their taking liberties with their character assasinations and bashing of innocent people in the name of "research." Like one of the victim's parents so emphatically stated, the hate in people's hearts has just got to stop. I think that there is alot of unnecessary rudeness, name calling, taunting and mean spiritedness, and I would expect more from the bashers who are annointing themselves as our investment "saviors." This is not a blanket statement to be applied to those who are negative on this company, and alot of critiquers who are pointing out red flags in a company are not "bashers." I also have no problem with hearing the pro in contrast to the con and vice versa. I just think that these discussions should be more civil, and that the terms of use should also apply to the bashers that are going overboard with their remarks. I bet the movie Flat Liners is going to hit home with alot of people in Littleton. One of the "jocks" admitted to feeling responsible for the shootings because he had been one of the uppercrust elite that had taken liberties with calling names and ostracizing Klebold and Harris and their group. So sad...for all involved and for ALL who are caught up in this trajedy. My point, sorry if I didn't make myself clear the first time, is that it is very unfortunate that this name calling takes place amongst people who are old enough to know better.
