    Can anyone explain why you wouldn't just use SpamAssassin?

    If we don't block all foreign IPs from the US, the terrorists have already won.

  3. Just burn down the house.. by nurb432 · · Score: 1, Troll

    So with that analogy:

    The person is at fault for *not* knowing what is going on, and you should go ahead and burn the house down to 'get his attention'. So what if its illegal, you are just showing him, and making the crack dealers go elsewhere.. so its ok.. right?

    Misuse of resources is wrong, regardless of how 'good' your intention is. ( and i dont buy the excuse that its a 'good intention', its intended to be punishment for being incompetent.. )

  4. Just Justification of Criminal activities.. by nurb432 · · Score: 1, Troll

    No, i just dont justify committing illegal acts.

    If its wrong to begin with, its wrong to do it back.

    So anyone that makes a honest mistake should be treated like a criminal, and more acts of crime committed against them.. in your thinking.
