london, england (reuters) -- a british man said to have carried out the country's first "web rage" attack was jailed for 2-1/2 years on friday for assaulting a man with whom he had exchanged insults over the internet.. paul gibbons, 47, from south london, admitted he had attacked john jones in december 2005 after months of exchanging abuse with him via an internet chat room dedicated to discussing islam.. london's central criminal court heard that gibbons had "taken exception" to jones, 43, after jones alleged that gibbons had been "interfering with children.".
after several more verbal and written exchanges, during which jones threatened to track down gibbons and give him a severe beating, gibbons and a friend went to his victim's house in essex, east of london, armed with a pickaxe and a machete.. jones himself was armed with a knife but gibbons seized it from him, held it to his throat and "scratched" him across the neck, the court was told.. gibbons, who the court heard had previous convictions for "violent offenses," pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding on the first day of his trial last month.. other charges of attempted murder and issuing online threats to kill four other chatroom users were not pursued but could be reactivated in future if he reoffends.. media reports said it was britain's first "web-rage" attack and judge richard hawkins said the circumstances were "unusual.".
"this case highlights the dangers of internet chat rooms, particularly with regard to giving personal details that will allow other users to discover home addresses," said detective sergeant jean-marc bazzoni of essex police.. .

the elders ignored my last letter...i wonder if they can ignore this one???

Were you folks the reason the dubs started calling the unbaptized ones Non-Witnesses as apposed to Unbelievers?

jehovah the god of the hebrew scriptures treatment of his creation is questionable.. jesus (his son) of the greek scriptures only on one occasion lost his temper - in the temple w/the money changers.
otherwise he was kind and patient and compassionate for people.. how can this be?
why such a difference in personality if they are the same "person"?
When believing they are separate it is easier to accept that the Father has the right to destroy his creation.

man who confessed to molesting children goes to court todaynovember 13th, 2006 @ 6:56amupdate: court officials tell ksl the hearing is not scheduled for today.

Courts offer you no other alternative.
If you wish to give your side of the story in the hearing of the court you must plea not guilty.
Since he confessed the plea is obviously a way to bargain. With these types of cases getting so much publicity I doubt the judge will allow much leeway.

Nov 15, 2006 Yes, it's great that the man was told to go to authorities.
At least one Elder has stood up and told a man to go to the authorities
This I like to see. Does anyone know what the law is in Utah? Are clergy required to report molestation cases in Utah? Did this Elder really go above and beyond?

"not guilty" plea about?
This way you can negotiate charges and by extension time served.
Use the system that is in place.

anybody remember this favorite witness concept?
the mosaic laws were basically perfect, the theory goes.
one evidence of this perfection was the fact that the hygenic requirements harmonize with current science, were obviously better than what everyone else at the time was practicing, and resulted in great health benefits for the israelites.
Oh my goodness!
