Trunk, Where’s your evidence for the incredibly stupid, ignorant, bigoted, and just downright head-up-your-rear things you’ve said regarding the Smart kidnapping case? ---

Well, if you insist. 🙂 [Lost Utah Kid, etc.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=322350) Take your pick of any of Trunk’s posts on pages two and three. ---

**Monty** , I’m afraid the link you posted above didn’t work for me, and was a bit annoying for having to search (though, not all that hard, alas) for what you were pitting **Trunk** for having posted. So, here’s one of the examples of the [manure](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6292708&postcount=63). And this is another case of **Trunk** using some good [fertilizer](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6292909&postcount=69). After reading those, all I can say is Wally Tango Foxtrot. ---

Thanks for the links. Seems like **Trunk** has a problem with factual confirmation. Worthy Pitting. ---

They\* are \*"incredibly stupid, ignorant, bigoted, and just downright head-up-your-rear things ". But the thread is about the _lost Utah kid,_ not Elizibeth Smart. Thus- Trunk probably shouldn’t have brought it up, nor anyone else continue with the hijacking. ---

But now the hijacking has ended and a proper Pit thread has been started, yes? (But there should’ve been a link to this Pit thread in the original thread. Points off. Points off!!!) ---

I think you were whooshed **Lib**. That’s a link to Maddox’ page, it’s got its tongue pretty firmly in cheek. Either that or **Dog80** was serious and thought it was some form of compelling argument. Either _thaaaaat_, or you’re the one whooshing me. Maddox still kicks ass though. Choices, choices. ---

**Monty** , did you put a link to this thread in the other thread, so your pittee might know that he’s being pitted? Not everybody reads the BBQ Pit regularly. ---

Yep, just did so. Thanks for the pointers, folks. As it is, Trunk’s not the only one who’s made asinine comments in that thread, nor the only one who’s made asinine comments about the Smart case; however, he’s the one who’s most pitworthy.
