Total nonsense. Otherwise murderers would roam the streets freely claiming that they couldn't be punished for their acts as it would be discrimination against them. You know nothing of the law or legal matters.

Every society has rules and laws that specifically discriminate against bad behaviour.

And this forum is private property. So the owner has great freedom whom to allow inside.

Deactivated account and moved posts away. Seems to be a blog spammer.

Overblown hatred of someone you've never met, I understand. But can we at least lose the language?

What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

Not really. It is likely to pass into the hinterlands of page two and below before it has a chance to become a problem.

Can we move viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2657921 (the old KB thread) from Locked Posts back to MZ Site Discussion and leave it there, just being locked to avoid further additions?

I'm linking to it from http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_browsing#General_considerations, and visitors who want to read that post (which was a bit of an effort to restore after it was accidentally deleted) now have to log in with an account.
