I allow people to comment anonymously, many blogs dont. If you want to express an opinion and throw insults my way but are afraid to back up your statements with an ID at least back up your opinions and insults with a logical argument.

Unfortunately due to spammers and people posting libel comments I've turned on moderation and just deleted the spam comments.
