As Twitchy has reported, the teenage son of conservative Boston Globe columnist Jeff Jacoby has been missing since Monday.
One tweeter couldn’t contain his disdain for Jeff Jacoby while saying he hopes his son is found safe:
Jeff Jacoby is a hateful fanatic, but I very much hope his son is quickly found safe and soundhttp://t.co/BDIJnT9E0H

@Ibishblog You sound hateful by saying that.

@Mswilcat I don't see how. The man's obviously a harmful fanatic. But I wish his son to be recovered ASAP & safe and sound.

@Mswilcat The point is, one can recognize that people with extreme opinions, and especially their children, have a right to remain unharmed

@Mswilcat It doesn't mean they don't have extreme opinions which one continues to object to, but one wishes them safety & security.

@Mswilcat It's important to be able to sympathize at a human level with those one finds dangerously fanatical. Especially their kids.

Well how very human of him.
@dextervanzile @Ibishblog Agree – definitely a case of if you can't say something nice don't say anything

@Ibishblog Wow. You're clearly a self-righteous, insensitive ass, but <insert insincere sounding good wish here.>

@Ibishblog @Mswilcat How is Jacoby a harmful fanatic? He's not the one who just word-vomited all over Twitter like a bitchy teenager.

.@Ibishblog How benevolent of you. Sheesh.

@Ibishblog I'm sure he (and all other decent human beings) would be happy if you keep your disingenuous sympathies to yourself
