Yeeah, well shit happens. Notice I prefixed my comment with the word _if_? I was in a bit of a state of shock. I personally don't take kindly to crap of that particular type...
This is not "shit happens". It is a case of people (not just you) deliberately and knowingly posting shit. Stop making pathetic excuses or dismissing it. Yes, I saw the "if" - it was a feeble shield. (And before you make your next inevitable excuse about "child abuse makes me so angry that I lashed out", first find someone who is /not/ made angry by child abuse.)
You should react against abuse of any kind when you see it. Report it if appropriate, or write posts against it (snipping the abuse itself) - make it clear that it is not acceptable in any community you are part of. But vigilantism and lynching - attacking individuals - has no more place here or anywhere else than other abuse.
Online abuse and public humiliation destroys peoples' lives. This is especially the case when the targets are innocent - and neither you nor I know if the poster "olcott" is guilty or innocent (or was found guilty, served his sentence, and is no longer a criminal).
You should take time to think about what kind of person you are, or want to be. Ask yourself if you are the kind who kicks people when they are down. Ask if you are the kind who listens to rumour and then plays judge, jury and executioner. I don't think that is who you are, but it is the part you - and a few others here - have played.
