Ignoring the fact that GNU always starts these battles (when one side in
every playground brawl always involves the same party it's easy to
ascertain the bully), there is ample justification for the BSD camp to
lose their temper now and again.

The only reason I vent at the GNU camp is because they are hypocrites.
It doesn't matter who they are, RMS, BC or GW, I always rail at
two-faced scoundrels. By his own definitions, the BSD license is "freer"
than Mr. Stallman's own GNU licenses. He tells us that copyright is evil
and then encourages us to use an copyright based license. And don't
forget that this thread was started because he encouraged someone to
bury the code, in direct opposition to all of his public statements.
