> This is an unhinged ad hominem attack

Do you see any fighting words from me? No? That's because there were none. It is downright hilarious of you to accuse me of an "ad hominem attack".

You call me barbaric and unhinged because you find my opinion unpleasant. You turned the conversation to personal attacks, and you chose to make my criticism of your person relevant to the conversation.

Of course it is relevant that you, the person accusing me of being barbaric, are someone who voluntarily hands out their money to fund executions.

Maybe consider whether or not this approach to moderation truly helps you reach the goal you desire. You could equally well have asked me to use less inflammatory wording without resorting to irrelevant personal attacks.

My opening comment politely asked you to “use less inflammatory language”. My characterizations have been of your conduct not your self. If you had anything of substance to say you wouldn’t keep fixating on where I live. As I’ve said, if you want a website where it’s fine to say someone “deserves a bullet in the head”, go somewhere else. This isn’t the place for you.
