The alternative, friends, is for the moderator to applaud and condemn in equal measure, but will naming the names of the condemned, in this case, qualify as a 'moderate' response?
As for Sam, he's a model beyond his postings on this forum. He's been known to offer to teach courses in universities in Nigeria free of charge! Sannu da aiki, Sam!

I believe it has always been so on this forum. One does not have to agree with all the views or opinions expressed here, or anywhere for that matter. My advice is that we tame intolerance, accommodate and learn from other views, or tolerate, or simply ignore divergent opinions.
