Okay then. Call me crazy. I tried to reach out to you across the chasm of differing ideologies. Is this all you've got? No comprende?

Don't play like "who, me? I'm just a naive seeker-of-common-ground!"

You entered the conversation waving a bloody shirt to slur real people, present here, as being responsible for the death of another real person, who was once present here. You couldn't even spell your adoptive martyr's name right, yet you're passing judgement, and want to assign blame to commenters – commenters! – for a death.

Swartz was a principled free-speech absolutist – see http://bits.are.notabug.com/ – so you do him no honor when you suggest commenters owe penance, or silence, for expressing certain opinions.
