Everybody is right.

1) The link had no place on this board, warnings or not

2) No one should blindly click on links without thinking first and making sure that's what they want to do. If such a person were getting the amount of spam I get, he/she would have learned that lesson a long time ago.

3) Whomever complains he/she was offended after clicking on the links has lost his/her right to complain. Just like ignorance of the law is no excuse, ignoring the warning the thing was R rated is no excuse either.

Can we close this subject now?

I personally had no problem with the e-mail in question, I get these types of
notes from my friends all the time. But I guarantee you that if my born again,
very devout Southern Baptist father-in-law had received it, he would have been
extremely embarassed and upset. Or if it had been sent to my mother, the same
applies.


To the original sender, do you know all the people who received this? The
rationale that the picture was a link and not pasted in the note, and the
disclaimer that it was R-rated just does not cut it. Many of us get numerous
notes a day and <<<shoot right through them>>>???. May I suggest that, before you send a
note with this type of content, you stop for just one second and ask yourself
whether or not someone could be offended by it. If the answer is yes or maybe,
don't send it. <<<absolutely>>>
