   Try searching a usenet archive for posts by Stewart Connor and   
   variations upon the name D_E_M_I_G_O_D.  Look especially for articles   
   pertaining to banishment, human rights, and Stewie's earlier version   
   of his Newbie FAQ, in which he claims that by abolishing prisons   
   society will miraculous cleanse and heal itself.  Then tell me that   
   you are dealinig with the real world on usenet.

   You are trying to have your cake and eat it too.  You claim that   
   readers lack the discriminatory abilities judge the information they   
   are presented with but retain those same abilities to judge his   
   character and fallaciously identify the image that you interpret as   
   representing all CO's.  It's a contradictory logical fallacy.

   Of course we do. So much so that colloquialisms like "the need to   
   vent" and "letting off some steam" have entered the language and are   
   thriving expressions today.
