Khem beat me to the gay frogs joke, dammit. I'll really miss the motherfucker on my regular perusals through youtube and elsewhere. He was a source of quite a few belly laughs for me.
I see shutting him down as a negative thing. I mean, if people believe this guy, that's their problem. And removing him from a given platform isn't going to solve the real issue: widespread ignorance and a general lack of critical thinking skills among the populace. Luckily, this problem is solvable.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: our public education system sucks; colleges need to reverse the trend of becoming "career training centers" and return to being "centers of education." Jones is just a symptom of an underlying problem.
