I tolerated a whole lot of shit from that twerp, and was quite patient.
There comes a point where you have to give someone advice to either shut
up or ship out after they've made such a royal ass of themselves and
they are not smart enough to leave the party. Brian has demonstrated
such a lack of intelligence.

And you, sir, are a hypersensitive, supercilious, unhumorous git.

Hardly. I need no cult or any support from others to tell when someone
is being a moron, a smeghead, an idiot, or otherwise a general lout, and
I don't shy away from telling people when they are acting that way.

Frankly, I doubt it. They'll see how he equates opinions against
circumcision with anti-semitism and walk away laughing, saying "Well, if
we do wake this one, we'll definitely have to do some rewiring, we
certainly can't allow such illogical people to just wander the streets,
they might hurt themselves."
They may think I'm dangerous, but relative to their own standards, I
won't be much different from anyone else from our age, and anyways,
there is always a need for dangerous people in any age. If they want to
send me off exploring distant space, thats fine with me, I have little
intention of living in a society of lotus eating pacifistic socialists,
if thats the sort of society you think will evolve in the future.
Frankly I don't think such a society will.

Act stupidly and you will get treated as one treats an idiot. Brian has
NOT acted at all intelligently on the list, his careless and
inconsiderate tendency to insult and attack anyone who disagreed with
him, then claim no hard feelings is just the tip of the iceberg.
