You know what, I saw the title of the blog and the author and I didn't even read it.  Why bother... I knew it would be stupid.

However, I just read it out of curiosity since it has stimulated this blog over here.  

Bobo1 is a dork. He starts off the blog stating that the earthquake was bigger in magnitude and therefore deserves more press coverage. Then later claims that it's not about size at all (backpeddling begins).When everyone starts posting facts and figures comparing the two quakes and their death tolls, then he tries to make the point that even if one person died in Chile the media should make a huge deal out of it because 1 life, 2 lives, 100,000 lives, it should all be treated exactly the same in the media, correct?  

In the end, his straw man argument is completely destroyed but he's still flailing about, responding to everyone about how sick he is of seeing people with a certain skin tone (black) getting help and media coverage and the attention of the public.  So now it's apparent that this guy has a serious chip on his shoulder and it's not even worth trying to figure out his underlying issues.

The best thing is to not read his blogs. However, I will admit that reading everyone's replies was educational, interesting and even funny.  Especially the one about Bobo needing to get some new furniture for his dollhouse... definitely made me chuckle...

The latest effort at coordinated trolling by KenTX and his side kick Bobo1 demonstrates why we boycott KenTX. It is summarized in the note to Hubble by a former TYT member

    "I have purposely avoided responding to or engaging ken or bobo in any of their various antics or guises. I don't find it to be at all constructive. Sadly, I've also been participating in the forums less and less because a tone of civility and intelligent exchange seems to be completely optional. It's one thing to say, "I disagree" and explain why, it's also junior high to throw in "asshat."  I don't see myself engaging in much of anything in the forums any longer, and I do think that is sad. Thank you for your efforts and I wish them well."

We will soon consider if we should add bobo1 to the boycott because of his purposeful use of race baiting to , in his words " irritate " liberals.

If you think we should boycott bobo 1 as well please respond to MrFred or Hubble in the affirmative.

I personally think bobo demonstrates the worst of conservative "values" and makes a useful display the depravity associated with the far right fringe.

The solution proposed by KenTX / Hugh Everett/bobo to complaints about Fox and "conservative" pundits is to simply not read the offensive material, turn the channel or close your ears.

Very true, we agree. Help us clean up the TYT Forum.

I have no problem with boycotting a person on this forum. That's a matter of personal choice. But in my limited experience here, KenTX has not been the only person to initiate ad hominem attacks. I have received such attacks - from people I believe, from the nature of their posts, are liberals - simply because I am audacious enough to believe the federal government does not have the authority to require its citizens to buy health insurance. I engaged KenTX for the first time today. I will see how he responds. If he just attacks, I'll ignore him like many others because ad hominem attacks are boring. I'd like it if no one used them.
