THIS IS *NOT* *FUNNY*!!!!

Gregg did not attach *any* smiley-faces to this posting and I
intend to treat it seriously.  Threats by men toward women are
not in any way humorous.  I think any man who enjoys saying
"We're gonna get you Cheryl" has a SICK mind and a CRUEL one.
The fact is that women are *killed* *every* *day* in the United
States by men.  Gregg's attempt to use this fact as humor is
twisted and outrageous.  He is poking fun at the fear that many
women consider a natural part of daily life and I cannot
tolerate it.  He is making a joke out of murder, rape, beating
and intimidation.  IT IS *NOT* *A* *JOKE*!!!
