Oh, S.M. Stirling

Yes, picking on him is like shooting a fish in a barrel, and yes, it's a ten-year-old post, but hoping that copyright violators get gang-raped? Really?

(Alternatively, he just endorses killing them.)

This is a guy who's written a novel set in a post-apocalyptic Corvallis.

I'm sorry, but for those of us in the vicinity of pre-apocalyptic Corvallis, that all by itself is enough to class the guy firmly among the pantheon of "dudes whose opinions we don't need to take all that seriously."

Heh. One more in a long list of reasons to avoid him.

Although I am reliably informed that Corvallis is more-than-usually post-apocalyptic today, what with all the rain we've been having. No, nobody has broken out the swords or the feudalism just yet; it's more chainsaws and rowboats.
