Rabbi Zelig Pliskin – Found at the website promoting the book “The Light From Zion.”
If someone is critical of you in a harsh tone of voice, try telling them the following:
“I appreciate your strong feelings about the matter, but I would appreciate the comments more if they were expressed more pleasantly.”
From Rabbi Zelig Pliskin’s book Gateway to Self Knowledge, pp.184-6
Given all of those shrill voices in social media and occasionally in real life, this is a much needed reminder that we can ask folks to turn down the volume a bit.

It’s hard when someone comments on my post that they’d like to see my wife shot through the head that “I appreciate your strong feelings about the matter, but I would appreciate the comments more if they were expressed more pleasantly.”

I’m sure once someone crosses the line (and a death threat definitely qualifies) that you no longer have to be restrained. Who said such an outrageous thing?

Probably just a troll surfing by. I replied to him/her on your blog and if the cretin becomes troublesome, block his/her name, email addy, and IP address. There might even be a way to report him/her to WordPress if the comments violate their right of use agreement.
