re: #121 LudwigVanQuixote

And today is is a pathetic washed out disgrace to the uniform he once proudly wore. He disgraces America with his racism, brutality and anti-American garbage.

That is not just scorn, it is the simple truth.

I hear you Ludwig, but I’m not going to pass that kind of judgment on a former serviceman. Largely because I did not serve, I don’t feel it proper for me to hand out such character judgments of those who did. I’ll condemn actions, and criticize someones bad ideas and philosophies (and I have in his case). But I made his character an anti-Paladin after welwikii suggested it. I did so because, unlike demons, anti-Paladins are capable of redemption. I still hope he comes to see how wrong his support of the Bosnian Serbs was and why calls for the destruction of Islam can only lead to bloodshed on a massive scale. He ain’t coming back ever, and I know why and agree with Charles’ decision, but as I always do, I hope he finds redemption and peace.
