Agreed. I read this earlier and tried to formulate a reply, but this is one of those rare situations where words have failed me completely. I don't even know how to react to this; right now I'm not even feeling outrage so much as stunned incredulity and a deep melancholy. I hate even thinking that anyone is capable of this sort of thing. I just don't know what to say.
