A message from Gabe about dickwolves

Roger WilcoRoger Wilco Registered User regular
edited February 2011 in Social Entropy++
This is what Gabe just posted on the front page, and I wanted to repost here it to make sure it was seen.
"I think this has really gone too far. We have people on both sides of this ridiculous argument making death threats and worse. Kara was certainly upset to see someone mention on Twitter last night that it would be funny to come to my house and murder my wife and children. I know there are people who see themselves as being on our side that have made equally disgusting comments in the other direction. I want to make it very clear that I do not approve of this kind of bullshit.

I am certainly guilty of being snarky, sarcastic and rude. I apologize if that gave anyone the impression that I would ever condone this sort of behavior. If you are out there making these sorts of threats thinking that you are somehow doing our good work, please stop. I never should have engaged them at all much less the way I did. Obviously Courtney Stanton has been very vocal about her dislike of us and our behavior. But she is not censoring us, she has not stripped away our freedom of speech. She didn’t even have anything to do with our decision to remove the shirt. I’m sure she is just as upset with the threats being made by people who consider themselves her supporters. So I’m asking you to please leave her alone.

Personally I’m done with this argument and I’m asking you all to be done with it as well. Don’t go read the blogs, don’t respond to the Tweets, just let it go. Thank You.

-Gabe out

    As someone who doesn't follow "the Twittersphere", are there really deaththreats coming in from the same people who were offended by "the guy who produces Law and Order"?

    comic with rape reference caused debate and people are taking it too far.

    That's about as deep as I think we're allowed to go at this point.

    We should all probably start leaving it alone.

    Yeah, I thought about that, but I thought it was a pretty important message that might not be there tomorrow when a new comic is posted, so I wanted to preserve it.

    45th amendment. Only rape victims can use the word rape, and only in a somber tone.
