Methinks he be best ignored, attention to such as Mao Tse Troll is like food to a starving man.
What I hate though is even some well intended atheists want to protect the false martyrs. As much as I pick on all sorts of superstitions, religions and conspiracies, I will also defend say gays and Christians in Iran, and non violent Muslims living in the west.
But I will not defend the idea that because you got offended means you have the right to silence me.
Far too many people including some atheists, cannot separate the claim from the person. People make claims, but claims are not the person themselves.
Whoa! Hold on there, pilgrim. Please allow me to assure you of the fact that I have no desire whatever to defend this Maoist nutjob. I was merely attempting to explain, not excuse. I admit it was cheap armchair psychology, but sometimes it's correct. If this bozo doesn't get any attention, then he has no reason to post. That was the beginning and end of that. I'm on your side, dude. I simply want to see him gone, myself.
