That would be true in some cases though!

However, I also expect my own character & sense of decorum will keep me from flinging truly hateful garbage right & left on public forums about Stevie or any other innocent bystanders. That really doesn't get me off. The problem is that definitions of "hateful" or even "inappropriate" seem to vary from person to person.

I couldn't agree more, on all points.

It is just a pity that some folks confuse the ability to express criticism, with their apparent base need for "flinging hateful garbage," as you put it.
But that's true for all parts of society.
