While maybe not a thread crap, the above kind of posts certainly threaten to take a thread off-topic [thoughtful contributions that avoid the need for moderation seem like a better idea to me].
People should be free to express their feelings even if they don't agree with hard core fans.
I'm sure the day Rush Limbaugh dies there will be insults galore in that thread.

Not the most convincing attempt at self-justification, wm lopez.
Would you please read what I said about particular Music Talk etiquette and refrain from posting such bile where you have already been told it isn't wanted.
