I did not wrote 'Joachim Carlo Santos Martillo Ajami'.
This is a signature, put under a posting in which said individual
was explaining a German netter that his place is in SA.

I think that it was extremally low attack by Martillo, and sadly,
very characteristic for this individual.

Some time ago there was a discussion whether certain individual
should not be discuraged to post, since he espoused hatred to Jews
and many others.  Martillo on the other hand keeps ranting against
muslim ('should be supressed', 'deserve to be treated like shit' etc.)
and now equates a German with a Nazi.

I do not know how is it in USA, but in my country it is the gravest
of insults.  Therefore I am appaled that while some bigots are shunned,
others are condoned.  Martillo should apologize to Bormann, but knowing
his style of thinking I know that he will never do.

I did not send E-mail to Martillo because I think that it is a valid
matter for this net.  How shall we accomodate hateful fanatics here?
By patting them on the back and saying: nicely written, isn't it?

Bigotry is the worst illness of a society, and I have some little
experience of my own.  Martillo is well read, intelligent and hateful.
He looks everywhere and sees only reflections of his own hate.
In a sence, he is explaing us what is the way a person like Kaddafi
may think.  I think it is important not to be nice to hateful bigots.
They shouldn't be respected.  Otherwise they can spread the poison.
