Rather than mud wrestling with them, I simply call attention to their posts without comment. The question is, what can be done to keep anonymous perverts and sociopaths from destroying the Internet? As rats, roaches, criminals, sociopaths, and other vermin fear exposure and tend to fade away when exposed to light, here's what could be done to prevent a few perverts and sociopaths from turning your newsgroup into a sewer. 1. Post their real names, addresses and employers on the Internet. 2. Post their pictures and other personal data on the Internet. 3. Report them to their ISP and Google 4. Sue them in local Small Claims courts 5. Report them to law enforcement when they commit crimes such as forging users names, identity theft, soliciting children, etc. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com
