Before Bell accuses me of lying, I sent that statement before he responded
to me, privately. His response is simply that he can call us all immoral if
we don't collectively take up arms and say "Bad, bad, Farrell!" Of course,
he's unwilling to discuss whether what Farrell did was, in fact, wrong in
the first place, and why it would be so.
