You just don't understand. When you say something on this site, it's an opinion, but when CRY/KRK says something he's stating FACTS. Never mind that he has no personal knowledge of the situation, doesn't know all the facts, and has nothing but gossip and rumor to base his decisions on. He's ready to tar and feather the guy, and to make a federal case out of it.

Funny when somebody says something about one of his friends, he's all bent out of shape. But he can do it to other people and never think twice about it.

Or what you read in the paper or see on TV. How many times have you seen coverage of a story you're familiar with and thought how inaccurate the reporting was? Well, guess what, the rest of the stories aren't any better.

Reporting what's going on is all well and good, and for that matter there's nothing wrong with telling folks you have some concerns about an individual and his claims. But when somebody starts a one man smear campaign worthy of the presidental election, all based on no first hand info, that's going a bit overboard.
