Well personally, and not because I’m likely to be in one any time soon - touch wood! - I’d prefer to see criminals given some sort of rehabilitation program in jails, rather than an anus-ripping episode in the showers. Call me conventional, or something. ---

What does it matter if **Scumpup** peruses threads abou sex, bouncers, animals or unicorns? His favorite topics to read or post about have nothing to do with this. Now you’re trying to somehow shame him over his presence here?😕 BTW If **Scumpup** has cohorts I don’t know who they are. Its not like certain posters met in the _ **Scumpup Hall o’ Doom Honeycomb Hideout** _ and decided to “roll” with him. I am not his cohort, we agree on certain things and disagree on others. This being the pit and having been involved in the former trainwreck of a thread(s) I think **Scumpup** is not out of line here. ---

You really are dim, aren’t you? My posts to this thread have consisted primarily of my opinion about Ivan. The majority of them have, you will note, been addressed directly to Ivan. The times I’ve even acknowledged you inthis thread have been to tell you that you are not important to me and to go away. At no point have I told others what to think of Ivan. Anything of that nature is a product of your own imagination. My whole purpose in this thread is to have a little honest confrontation 1to 1 with trollboy. The rest of you are no more than spectators as far as I am concerned. You happen to be a spectator who wants to run out on the field and be part of things. Now go away and find somebody who values what you have to say. ---

It’s just an incredible coincidence that when **ivan** enters a [thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=505543&page=3), very often he ends up pissing someone off. ---
