Dear the Angered and Offended of LiveJournal:

[paralinguistic]

I agree with you. This whole little crusade is wrong, and you're right. I believe in freedom of press and freedom of speech, as well as messages in fanfiction and fiction. I even wrote here upon how much I agree with you. However, I'm going to have to bring up a very important point here which many if not all of you appear to have missed

I agree with you - the word jihad is extremely inappropriate and suggests that we are just as rabid and insane as the WFI. :\

[moriath]

THANK YOU!

I'm uncomfortable with the comm name as well...but I want to remain in the loop so I joined anyway. Damned if you do, damned if you don't, y'know?

[kuchenhexe]

Same here. I was facepalming when I read it, but...

[ex_sprightf]

Thanks, Sian. ♥ Really.

[babydraco]

but using the word here in some petty squabble with what is really two or three people on some stupid website who are influencing a blogging site seems to be more than a little inappropriate again. Offensive.

You honestly believe this is just a petty online squabble with "two or three people on some stupid website?" Seriously?

"Jihad Against Innocence"?

Or...a Jihad against the *Warriors for Innocence*

I believe the term is *meant* to shock and unsettle people. I don't think it was meant in a "tee hee" kind of way.

[revanchists]

I fully agree with this.

[ex_sprightf]

Petty or not, it doesn't even come close to justifying the use of jihad. And last I checked, "Jihad Against Innocence" is the community name. You can't fault her on that one, either.

[magnetgirl]

The Warriors for Innocence are waging a crusade against freedom of speech. We are, in our limited internet lj way, waging one right back.

Can we not start internally censoring ourselves here? Isn't that what this community was created to STOP? Let's preserve our right to speech here FIRST, so we have the ability to debate!

Remember all those times heavenablaze owned you? Those were funny.
Remember when so-called "bisexual" zell_dincht contracted HIV then got hung to dry on a piece of wood like that deviate methhead Matt Shepard?
I guess that didn't happen but man I can't wait until it does as it's inevitable and all
ps: Snape kills dumbledore

And you were defending said moron? I know, why don't you go back to being a Christian Goth, whatever that is.
