Justin Griffiths Sort of Defends the Slimepit

#1

Post by John Greg »

One of the major FfTB Howler Baboons, Illuminata (place goofy name here) posted a slag of the Slimepit, stating we are orders of magnitude worse than Laden ("What Laden did was clearly wrong, what the slimepit would do to you will be orders of magnitude worse.").

Griffiths, rebuts him. In part: "I don’t threaten any civilians with violence except in very extreme specific situations (preventing a rape, self-defense, etc.) The slime pit did not do that to him. He’s always been a bully, it wasn’t that he was destroyed in any sense from a year+ battle. He simply always was a snake in the grass."

That was a brave and honest assessment from Justin Griffiths, especially in the light of how many of the FC5 and affiliates seem to be pissed at him for initating Laden's long-overdue downfall. I think Justin is the victim of "victim-blaming" by the Baboons. "Victim-blaming" is, of course, one of the Baboon's standard criticisms directed at others.

I guess it only applies when they choose who is the victim.

I, for one, would condemn any Slymepitter who sent the type of email Laden sent. Not vaguely saying he made an error of judgment, or something, and then mitigating his action like Stefunny (that "Jeff" analogy") and Watson (who gleefully announced she was having lunch with him the next day - not a word about his threats!).

Okay, this is sorta off-topic, but I have noticed that a few posters are spelling Justin's last name incorrectly. It is Griffith, not Griffiths. No S at the end. GET IT FUCKING RIGHT. The fact that he signs every blog post with Justin Griffith did not clue you guys in, huh?

I realize this really does not matter much, but still. At least get his name right because you guys like what he has to say.

Thanks for pointing that out. For some reason I had the "s" stuck in my head.
