The obvious end game in the failure of public discourse is naked violence.

Making its way through the blogosphere is the story of how Brett Kimberlin, a convicted terrorist and political activist being funded by the likes of Barbra Streisand, George Soros and Teresa Heinz Kerry., has hoodwinked a Maryland judge into arresting a conservative blogger for blogging about Kimberlin's tactics.

Another tactic is called "SWATting" and works by tipping the local police team that a blogger is armed and dangerous in his home, causing the police to send in SWAT, and the blogger to get killed, as happened this weekend with Patrick Frey, aka Paterica.

This is strategy being shaped by the totalitarian left side of the blogosphere naturally.

This is an offense against the habitrs that make free speech possible.
