The St. Augustine Record did an excellent public service by today's lead story, about the Florida National Guard's animal torture in the name of medic training. Great job.
Hours later, it seems that the Record has gone back to its old ways -- it has posted some deranged hateful comments suggesting that PETA members be used instead of animals for decapitation, shooting and disemboweling for medic training.
The Record's Posting Rules are not enforced against hate speech (only against progressives). The Record's tatterdemalion website is a veritable free fire zone for hate speech -- including death threats directed against City commissioners and staff, and hate speech directed against PETA -- may be published.
The St. Augstine Record website is an electronic Ku Klux Klan bulletin board, a liability and an embarassment to our Nation's Oldest City. If you're looking for anonymous hate speech, the Record is the place under the new Publisher, Delinda Fogel. Ms. Fogel is a CPA who evidently thinks it's profitable to print hate speech and increase the number of eyeballs on the Record's website. She actually asked last week if I had a journalism degree, and said if I didn't like their website, maybe I shouldn't read it. See below.
What do you reckon?

I reckon you are right to keep battering away at "Comments" on The Record. Keep exposing the hatred consciously perpetrated by Delinda Fogel, who should know better but demonstrates daily that she does not.
If posters had to post via a SMS, then it might get rid of some of the very worst of the lot and allow true discourse to occur.
Venceramos!
