Quote from: Eiki-mun on December 21, 2014, 06:38:11 pmI agree with Wil Wheaton. You should be required to disclose your full name, address, and workplace to everyone and anyone you meet on the internet. Surely ending anonymity will make harassment end, rather than worsening it by essentially doxxing everyone!What's that, you say? Address and workplace aren't necessary? Then how do you think things are going to change? Do you really think people will be so much different depending on whether they're GamerRoxxor or Austin Power?He didn't say everyone on the Internet...

How does he plan to do this thing.
As you may have heard, Wilbur Cerate, a Virginia man, claims that last month, two People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals staffers turned up at his home when he wasn't there, loaded his daughter's Chihuahua, Maya, into a van, and then euthanized her.Three days later -- this is the real kicker -- the PETA workers are said to have then brought the grieving family a fruit basket.Parts of this were caught on surveillance video.Accomack County Sheriff Todd Godwin told WAVY -- the first local news outlet to pursue this bizarre, sad story -- he charged the dog-nappers with larceny, only to see the charges dropped by the Commonwealth Attorney because, as the paper put it, "there wasn't enough evidence to prosecute."On Wednesday, DELMARVA Now got the names of those who were charged: Victoria Jean Carey, who appears to do HR for the group, and Jennifer Lisa Woods, another longtime PETA staffer who seems to have been quoted in a 1997 article advocating for the "compassionate" euthanasia of homeless cats. (Sure, that was nearly 20 years ago -- but PETA still has a web page up entitled "Euthanasia: The Compassionate Option.")Godwin told the paper that "both individuals were working on behalf of the PETA Community Assistance Program when the theft occurred."
Life for the sake of life means nothing.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were: "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches. Tingly!
^^ Lets not mince words - they broke into someone's property, took the pet, and then killed it.PETA's apparently been doing this kind of thing - randomly picking up outside dogs - for a long time.Ingrid Newkirk even said in her time at an animal shelter she doesn't remember how many animals she killed as "euthanasia", and sometimes she'd even go there early just to do other people's slaughter quota. She even claimed it felt "fulfilling" or something.
@ guizonde: I think I like the way you think.

Toddlers get too much exercise, they wouldn't make good veal.
I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.
