Also, I got pissed at the use of "come hell or high water". I know that's an old saying, but we made it ours, dammit.

To be perfectly fair, I think most people would prefer to live in San Francisco relative to Kingston.

This link has the second letter. This seriously strikes me as a mentally ill person or perhaps a teenager being a badass

Does anybody actually use "deep south" like that in a serious manner anyway? Seems it was thrown in there as a homophobic buzzword.

Yowza, this is some serious stuff. I hope they catch these guys (or more likely this guy) soon and make an example of him.

Also, I missed the part about the head office being in the Deep South the first time. So just for Tranny's benefit I'll give it back to him...

It seems like the second letter is written by someone trolling the writer of the first.

This is big news??

Now I am against anyone committing hate crimes against the gay and lesbian community, but aren't there nutcases who do this in any given city in North America? I'm sure Jews, immigrants, Muslims, and Hindus have experienced this, to some extent.

It's sad that some people are so bitter in life that they need to bring others down with them.....

I'd say it's pretty big news. It's anonymous threats of physical violence or worse. And a kinda weird letter to boot.

It's not like someone just walked up to someone in a bar and N'bombed them. It's significantly more serious than that.

When the Jewish center was spray painted with racial insults a few years ago, it was news for a few days. (and rightly so) I'd say this is worse than that.

Well after the second letter I think it is a pretty good thing guns are hard to find. I'm surprised they haven;t tracked down who is doing this yet. The good news I guess is that if it is hard to find the people behind it it is likely a very small group or just 1 person. As if it was a large group some idiot would be bragging about it on facebook or a msg board somewhere.
