So Dee writes this quite moving post regarding the suicide of Braxton Caner [ Ergun Caner's son ] and the apology of J.D. Hall. who had a brief interaction with Braxton on Twitter a couple of weeks before Braxton's death.
Dee's post is thoughtful and lacks snark, sarcasm etc. She said she was going to close the comments but forgot before two were written.
So, to recap, you have this post that begs people to let go of the Caner/Hall controversy, the whole issue of a young man's suicide and then the very very first comment is from "Dr. Steve" who writes: "ABattaBOOM"
Well I don't know who "Dr. Steve" is but *W.T. F. is that comment?

And that has always been one of the bigger problems with WartburgWatch. Dee has allowed people to write absolutely outrageous comments seemingly without any pushback [ except against me dryly -]
There are some really bitter/angry people who read and respond on T.W.W. I truly believe that is part of the "bitter-fruit" of Dee's "discernment blog."
* = fudge
Dissecting Wartburgwatch and I-Monk which presents themselves as blogs dissecting Christian trends but dissect, mostly, conservative Evangelicals who have an historic orthodox view of Scripture. Not a lot of happy commenters seen on those blogs.
Battaboom is Dr. Steve's version of "FIRST POST!" or "FIRST" or whatever. It's something that morons used to say in the 90's on comment sections. If you look at all TWW's pages, every comments section starts with someone declaring "first post" in one form or another. I've commented there a few times about it, but Dee deletes my comments.
