Scour the newsgroups, searching for > articles you deem unethical and proceed to scold the author? BTW your > verbal spanking may hold more validity if you did less name-calling (I > counted 5 lame-asses alone) and posted your arguments more cogently. My verbal spanking should be replaced with physically horsewhipping every lame-ass prick who thinks the world owes them. And also all you extreme liberal "politically correct" defenders of the humanly chalanged. Go fuck yourself. As for cruising the web looking to vent.... I go into a few select NGs and read messages, and when some lame-ass or his whipping boycomes outwith the kind of shit like both of you did, there is no "internet-lurking, moral defenders of justice" only the mild rantings of someone who doesn't give a shit if you crawled under a rock and died.

(I'll bet you either looked that one up to look intellegent, or are a lawyer, in which case you looked that one up to look intellegent!) Further more , the *very* few who do that are also made up of the *very* few street punks. Ooops, thats not a "very" few now is it? And yes IT DOES affect us. You dolt, look at prices today! Their attitude says a lot. It is obviuos your brain is so cluttered with touchy-feely, feel sorry for everyone with a hard luck story that you could care less if prices soared because of them or not. > > Finally, the people who posted here were trying to help others, who > may be financially challenged, acquire some measly scraps the huge > conglomerate companies drop from their table.

Finacially challenged? Oh, yeah. You mean lazy creeps who don't have any more ambition than to 1) think stealling is ok, and 2) teach their kids to do the same. With that same thing in mind, why not help Charles Manson "free this world of evil", after all, you would only be trying to help. Help theives steal is NOT help. As for "measly" scraps, if they shopped around on their measly incomes, they would find that there are MANY fair priced places out there. They don't WANT to shop around. Why, its easier to steal. Go fuck yourself. Oh, and if you don't like my name calling and language, go to some other NG!
