I thought so.

I haven't had time to tackle much here, but let me try to start. I see your point of view as:
1. Lou's posts are accusations.
2. Allowing Lou to keep posting = not caring that you be treated with respect.
Whereas my point of view is:
1. Lou's posts are hypothetical scenarios of low probability.
2. Allowing Lou to keep posting = treating him with respect.
Reasonable people can disagree, right?
