Since I began to break ranks with the right wing noisemakers, I’ve been receiving an average of five hate mails every single day, often more.

Sometimes it’s the same person over and over. Once someone sent me more than three dozen emails in about 10 minutes before I blocked his IP address from the site.

Sometimes it’s from a random Internet rage-a-holic, who followed a link from one of the wingnut blogs where I get trashed on a regular basis for not believing in creationism, or for not adoring ex-governor Sarah Palin, or for saying unkind things about Rush Limbaugh.

The amount of hate mail I’ve received from angry right wingers is far, far beyond anything I ever received from angry Islamists, or even from angry CODEPINK leftists. And the level of venom and vitriol is pretty amazing. Many of them exhibit cowardly stalker-like behavior, using proxy IPs and fake email addresses to hide their identities, and putting titles on their hate mails that sound innocuous to “trick” me into reading them.

Here are a few samples from January alone (a month in which I received 151 hate mails), with all profanities, misspellings, and bad grammar left intact to convey the full flavor.

Received on January 1st from someone who clicked a link in a Google search page:

charles, it’s 2010 and you’re still a little green faggot.

Short but not sweet at all.

Here’s one titled “creationism:”

Obsessed with this, arent ya. Well next dinner party you have with Maxine Walters and Nancy, bring it up with them. If you lump people across the board into something, it cuts both ways….ergo, youre a fucking idiot.

Simply titled “Question:”

You are a headline loving douche bag. Suck on a big fat one, fat boy.

Homophobia and gay-themed insults are very common.

If someone had told me a few years ago that the chubby dissembler would like smoking cock more than writing about jihad in 2010, I probably wouldn’t have believed them.

And I mean extremely common.

Who told you that tea party supporters weren’t supporting Brown? Strawman much?

And speaking of teabagging, what do you like? You like a bear with hairy testicles, a new fish with barely a hair on them? Dipped in anything before you suck? Do you like to lick or suck first? Straight to the shaft after that or are you a rim job type of guy?

Another very common theme among these hundreds of emails is that I’m now “irrelevant” and nobody reads or cares about LGF any more. This tactic is intended to rob me of the will to live, I think.

A reader in Georgia sets his caps lock key on “STUN” and spews:

CHARLES, LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE HAD YOUR TIME IN THE SUN. ONCE THIS ARTICLE RUNS ITS COURSE YOU WILL BE FORGOTTEN AND WILL FADE AWAY. NO ONE WILL CARE ABOUT YOUR OPINIONS ANYMORE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED. YOU WERE NEVER EMBRACED BY THE LEFT ONCE YOU TURNED ON THE RIGHT AND THEY HAVE THEIR FAVORITES TO TURN TO ANYWAYS. YOU ARE DONE ENJOY YOUR LONELY WALK TO IRRELEVANCE. PUBLISH THIS PLEASE.

I probably made Mr. Capslock’s day by publishing his illiterate rant. (No need to thank me, CL!)

Lots of these people are provoked into an angry screed because I accept the scientific evidence for evolution, or for global warming, or both.

Duplicitous dopefetcher Charles Johnson falls for Peter Sinclair’s latest bit of green propaganda. A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

One stalker specializes in vile comments like this one:

Every time you use the word dishonest a gay Jew is killed. Just so you know. L’Chaim.

Another common theme is rage at the readers who comment at LGF, for not hating me sufficiently:

Jesus h christ you are such a creep it is unbelievable. And stupid too. The sycophants love you and will do so against all facts not to mention good taste.

The majority of them get right to the point though. We’ll close tonight’s episode of “We Got Mail!” with a missive from yet another caps lock abuser:

SUCK SHIT YOU FUCKING COCKHEAD!!! LOL!!!
