<div>Look in the mirror, chasuk at <a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a>!</div>

<div>So chasuk at <a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a> thinks he has not engaged in conduct similar to trolls and flamers on Vision2020? I disagree. Everyone read the post from Chasuk at <a href="http://gmail.com">
gmail.com</a> forwarded below. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>While some Vision2020 participants represent viewpoints I disagree with vehemently, and I feel like attacking them with no restraint, the following post by chasuk at <a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a> should not, in my opinion, have been sent to this public list, regardless of how much he found his opponent offensive and/or morally corrupt. Send this sort of crap privately, please! Your post below does not contain one significant element of reasoning or fact, but solely aims to use derogatory language and images to vilify an opponent. While I agree with chasuk at
<a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a> that the person this post was aimed at has posted hate speech to this list (at least I think chasuk at <a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a> would agree with me on this point), this does not excuse returning hate for hate with no significant ideas or reasoning.
