Newtown shooting thread

Post by DrVolin »

First warning posted. At the next transgression, I will be in touch with specfic posters. After that, there may be some time off if necessary.

By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars

What do you guys think of curation? Like, that whole canuck-viewer vs. reef shark spat did have the silver lining of contributing not a single fucking fact or link to the actual body of information in that thread.

Writing that makes me realize that my alliegance may be more towards RI as an encyclopedia and less as a community. I need to think about that, I reckon.

As the good Dr. V observed earlier, nothing is often the best thing.

But heck, I just like deleting the crap.

Barracuda has reported the post in which Justdrew discusses the addresses of Christopher Rodia and others. As far as I can determine, all the information is from open sources. There is quite a bit of crime blotter stuff on Rodia from before the shooting, such as

As is usually the case in local NE news sources, names and addresses are included. I don't see there is much we should do about Justdrew's post. Any other opinions?

Agreed.
