Tribute: Youranter

February 14th 2008 00:16
This is a difficult tribute to write – I despise people crapping on and on about how much they admired so and so, when it’s clearly not the case. Death does not release one from responsibility of their actions or words.

So it is not with a vast insincerity that I mention Youranter – I won’t pretend we were close to each other (or even mutually civil at times). Politically we were on opposite magnetic fields – many of his ideas I could barely listen to for the extremity of his right wing bias.

Despite this, I fount him an able and willing debate partner. He was generally polite in the face of overwhelming hostility, and could express himself in a way that did not cut down to simple slagging.


At heart I can say that though he had e clenching my teeth, he added a valuable element to the Orble community, and I enjoyed his presence. He passed away on Veterans day – the day that celebrated the Military he so admired, who fort in the name of the Country he loved so.

By the way, for the record, he was Canadian.

It's tough to respect people that opposite opinions to your own, especially on controversial topics...
