 Where does that stuff (threats) come from? I realize it's a lame
 attempt at humor, but in this context it's a bit chilling.
 I thought the talk of legal action was absurd, but it was still
 legitimate discourse.
 Silly jokes about bombs, etc., smell of Limbaugh and Skinhead
 reactionary types.  It all starts in fun, then somebody gets
 an eye put out:]
 Get some perspective my friends- go outside, pet a dog, hug a
 kid, smoke some dope-whatever.
