Polly-want-a-cracked-head, is not being insensitive. He is being actively hostile. Now far be it from me to espouse politically correct speech, and I don't. On the other hand it doesn't help you be listened to if your primary contribution is to spew crap with the wrong orifice. Maybe I've become less tolerant, but I don't remember Dobo being as bad. Hell it took me till almost the end of his tenure before I killfiled him. Polly-want-a-cracked-head has since threatened a child. Now I take threats to innocents extremely seriously, yet I haven't threatened him directly, just intimated what I'd like to do, or see done. Apparently I'm not the only one who suspects he is a sociopath.
