Lets put it this way. I don't think us females who have said the ban was wrong are sticking up for him and saying what he said was true and was right. I think our point as many have stated is that the kid was out for shock-value and thats all it should have been taken as. He needed some attention possibly and GC definately gave it to him. Moreover, there have definately been worst things said on this board than that. Its the internet, I know a lot of people are more sensitive than others, but except when it gets really personal (i.e its directed towards you specifically), most of us just took what he said with a grain of salt and left it for that. There have been many times when I was personally attacked kind of viciously, but never asked anyone to be banned. Yeah it annoyed me, but believe me I got over it in about 3 secs.

So maybe this should happen. Maybe there should be an Important thread (like the 9/11 one) for awhile at the top of each forum stating the rules of GC just to remind everyone of what they are and what is expected. From then on everyone starts with a clean slate. You get warned 3 times, then your gone. And this should go for everyone, whether you have guest, member, junior, senior or moderator status. Its just an idea? This thread is kinda going to the too far level and like many other threads people are going to start throwing out offenses.
