Watching Twitter tonight has taught me one thing, Phillies fans are a bunch of whiny dicks. But it's ok, every tank needs a bottom feeder.

And I thought I wanted to hug Johan last week. I think I'm officially in love.

“The First Amendment protects words that persuade, not words that incite.” -Unknown.
This is a quote one of my favorite quotes. It is important to remember that free speech like any of our other freedoms come with responsibilities. Harassment is a form of mental assault, it certainly can be as harmful as beating someone with a ball bat.
When the harassment includes threats of bodily injury, or death these types of threats should be taken seriously. It should not matter if it by phone, e-mail, a letter or delivered personally. What is disturbing about this case is that standard lazy police handling.
The offending children and their parents should have been put on notice that the harassment must stop and if any harm came to the boy, they would be investigated and punished for their role in it – including just inciting others. Instead, they suggested that the boy go to school elsewhere.
