Why would it be wrong to find the imbecilic vandals adding spam to stuff on the Internet like this blog and execute them?  I’m serious. Okay, maybe lock a first offender in a cell one wall  of which is a screen blaring the texts of his spam back at him 24 hours a day for a month. The punishment for a second offense should be making it illegal for him to use a computer for the next ten years of his life, with execution the penalty for doing so.

Am I some kind of sexist for being sure the offender would be male?  Okay, I’m sure some spammers are female, but very few.  Would someone properly raised by politically-correct parents be willing to explain this to me?

Why should the murder of one person be considered worse than intentionally making millions of lives a mere half of one percent extremely annoying?

I can relate to spamming the website of someone I considered hateful, but intelligently spamming the site–with arguments smashing his hateful opinions to smithereens.  I could even imagine myself being a spammer of that kind when in my teens. I don’t think I would ever have spammed an individual, though (except a friend, playfully), but I could see spamming some institution I despised, like almost any political party . . .

In case, you haven’t guessed, this outburst is due to the damned underlinings spammed into my latest posts.  They were appearing regularly for a while some time ago, but stopped a month or more ago.  Now they’re back.  And now I’ve just realized that they may be ads by WordPress, which runs my blog: ergo, stupid and annoying but something I probably agreed to without knowing about when I started this free blog.  If so, I can’t complain too loudly, but I can still complain.  I can’t imagine they could be effective as ads.  I would never buy anything advertised by them.
