Just Stop
I feel awful now. Earlier this week, I made a big deal about letting potentially offensive comments stand in my journal. A few moments ago, I removed two comments due to their inappropriate nature. I am a huge supporter of free speech. I believe that everyone has a right to speak out, no matter how radical, backwards, or ill-informed their opinions are. But I draw the line at libel. Its one thing for someone to air their opinions, but defamation is quite another. I do not wish to be held responsible for libelous statements posted by others on my site, so I have and will continue to remove them. By the same token, I will also remove any comments that I deem vulgar or profane. I don't like doing it, so please don't make me. [If you feel that you must see the comments in question, please email me.]

Comments
So today I got a call from Jon yelling at me about messages being left on your site. I decided to check it out, and you have taken them down. I don't know what they said but I am sure they were not exactly nice, considering the tone of Jon's voice. So, on behalf of my asshole friends, I would like to apologize to you Sarah. I have a good idea who wrote to you, and I assure you, it will stop. You are right, I do miss Jon, I made a huge mistake when I left him. However, he is with the right person. I have too much going on in my head to be able to love someone else as much as they love me. He is where he belongs. And as jealous as I am that I lost him, I do hope you two are very very happy together and again, I am so sorry for what my jerk frineds said to you. They thought they were helping me, but in return they may have cost me a very good friend. Nobody deserves to be shit on like that, especially when you did nothing wrong. If my so-called "friend" writes anymore, rest assured I will let Jon know who it is, so he can kick some butt. :) Good luck with everything and I wish you and Jon the best of luck :)

Thank you, Katie.
I know it takes a good, strong person to say what you did, and I appreciate it.
