from boingboing:

Who are “Warriors for Innocence”?

The folks are Warriors for Innocence have been getting a lot of scrutiny, and as such, a few survivors of harsh Christian Reconstructionism have found that these folks are linked to some hardcore dominionist groups.

No mistake should be made here: these people are not so much about stopping pedo’s, they are about erecting and establishing a hate filled theocratic society by any means necessary. They are all about control. And they are firmly entrenched in the belief that they are “more right” than anyone else.

Thats why they have the distinction of being referred to as “Talibangelicals”.

Why am I not surprise? is that a kind of social you wanted to be in? you can count me out.

a bonus from Warren Ellis:

Until such time as LiveJournal/Six Apart work out how to tell the difference between fantasy fiction communities/support groups/fashion discussion communities/survivor histories and actual criminal use and traffic, and restore those fiction groups and survivor support teams to full working order, my own LiveJournal will become read-only, and I will produce no new content to be read on that system.

I do believe that some stupid people got what was coming to them today. But a lot more people have been mistreated by LiveJournal for no reason beyond blind panic. I see no reason to tacitly support that by continuing to write under a LiveJournal URL.

good to know there’s logical people out there.
