"Okay, so the facts are that 7chan had a raid thread about it. Also that the site was attacked. 7Chan had this to say:Hello, and welcome to our treehouse.I would just like to discuss this nasty business about a terrible raid on a forum for the poor people who suffer from epilepsy. What happened there was terrible, and we feel deeply sorry for those affected.Users of this site did not actually attack those individuals. The Church of Scientology posted numerous threads across many *chan sites, and then informed people that Anonymous had been attacking victims of epilepsy. They did this under their "fair game" policy, to ruin the public opinion of Anonymous, to lessen the effect of their lawful protests against their virulent organization.I must say, it is disgusting that the CoS is willing to drag innocent people down with them, in an attempt to save themselves. How could anyone be a willing participant in their terrible organization?Sadly, none of our staff were online at the time of the thread's posting, so we were unable to take it down.We are truly and deeply sorry for what happened to these innocent people,Thank you for your time spent reading this apology,The Administration and Staff of 7chan.orgFeel free to email us at the above address or address us on our IRC server, and we will be happy to address any of your concerns regarding this terrible incident."Quote from 4chan.PS: Don't kill the messenger and yes i go to 4chan and arguing the fact that is as stupid as arguing that i go to digg or fark or somethingawfull. Just grow up.

So is it that these people "troll" whilst they smuggle c**k? Or is it that they are smuggling the c**ks of actual trolls? Please clarify.
