The trolls tried to run me off the internet for good, but after the vast amounts of support I received, I have reconsidered. There is too much important work to do and Kelly Martin has impressed me very much over the past few days. She is willing to call a spade a spade and point out what these hatemongers actually are...
They are murderous Klansmen.
If you are being called a Klansmen and do not like it, then do not act like a torch wielding racists, out to satisfy their blood lust by executing an innocent man! As I read that eloquent post by Kelly Martin, I was overcome with so much joy and satisfaction that I stood and applauded at my computer screen. My dog, intuitively knowing that another blow has been delivered to the cyber terroists, barked at as I applauded, apparently agreeing with me. The barking disturbed my neighbors, but once I explained to them the beautiful post Ms. Martin had written they understood and suggested I get some sleep, saying I looked a bit stressed out.
I must commend Doc glasgow as well, for he made very many important points all over that thread, including pointing out that banning a person from Wikipedia is equivalent to killing them. Later, a politically correct and troll enabling host, CComMack, expressed his disdain for truth and his alignment with trolls. Now the xenophobic and intolerant mob are trying to satisfy their lethal thirsts and are circling the wagons around these two peerless Wikipedians.
But, all in all, this is very good news. Kelly had worried me recently, for she has fallen for many of the harassment memes that trolls spread, but in one comment, she has redeemed herself in the eyes of the silent majority. Now, we must convince her to disown that abusive and deranged Disgruntled Employee, Danny.
I am glad to see Kelly come back from the dark side, at least momentarily, and am wondering what others think.

Kelly turning back towards Jimbo and speaking truth to the trolls gladdens my heart. Jimbo knows that Kelly is a Wikipedian on the inside -- and her troll blogging period was some kind of affectation or phase. Jimbo made Kelly a Wikipedian and no amount of social conditioning or superficial postures can change that. It just ain't natural, that's why.
I hope the Foundation can show Wikipedia forgiveness, and welcome Kelly back.
The persecution of Mantanmoreland was less like a "Lynch Mob", and more of a Crucifixion.
Mantanmoreland's fall also brought to mind the brutality of the demise of the great freedom fighter Sparticus. Hunted down and nailed to a cross by sick trolls and harassers. (After remaining unidentifiable in a crowd of sockpuppets all crowing the same thing to escape detection)
Good comments above.
Indeed, after watching the hate filled lynch mob hunt down a great editor, we should stand up and say that we are are all Mantanmorelands now. Say it...
"I'm Mantanmoreland!" (...and SamiHarris, TomStoner, LastExit etc)
