oh yeah, then i can believe that. it sounded like you're referring to the puritans doing that.
actually, one of my favorite subjects is the politics of salem, what the witch trials were really all about.
people are sick, scary freaks; mostly an abomination.
don't you see that here at riu? some of the things people post from their minds?
Yes! The Puritan stuff is fascinating to me too. I think the TV series Salem took great liberty with reality but it still touches on just what was going on with those batshit crazy people. Can't wait for this season to start (the eye candy doesn't hurt, and where's Doer?).
Agree on the craziness. I usually assume it's just regular internet anonymity crap, but some of the stuff posted here goes beyond that. There are people here who would happily ruin another person's life because their own life is so miserable. I'm not used to dealing with people who think that way.
( I sent a request to an old HS buddy who teaches history now, I'll post a vid here if he sends me a link to the story, any version)
