Except for the 1000 points you get when they show their obsession with the penises of gun owners, which is all they seem to have. Otherwise, it's likepeeing your pants in a dark suit... no one seems to notice, but it gives you a warm feeling anyways...

He famously said: "To Argue With A Person Who Has Renounced The Use Of Reason Is Like Administering Medicine To The Dead"

I learned that the hard way with some nut on AllDeaf. Many in the Deaf community think he may be a psychopath and with very good reason. He has a history of stalking people who disagree with him. He also comes across as sadistic.

Still others think he's mentally ill and also with good reason. He was so obsessed Obama that it became a joke.

Nowadays, I put such people on ignore.
