If a 230lb hoodlum with a gun confronts you at night on a deserted
street, and says "give me your money or I'll kill you" most of us
would get upset.

Try to stay on topic. We are obviously talking about insults here, not
concrete threats to one's life.

I realize this is Usenet, but I will continue my foolish behavior of
assuming that people reading what I write will consider the context and
comprehend how that context limits or otherwise defines what I write.
