I recently started reading John Ringo and had thought about going to RavenCon. Seems a shame I didn't go so to add some support for Ringo at the panels, he did there.

Here is his take on what happen when he was attacked by several femnazi's there. I'm a liberal, but these ladies were pwnd and well deserved it.

I've never ready Ringo's books and I couldn't give a rat's *** what his politics are, but for Christ's sake, if you're going to write the tale of what happened at a convention, write the damn tale and quit the self-indulgent ranting and editorializing along the way, which makes the thing so obscure and difficult to follow that the hapless reader ends up throwing her hands up in dismay and annoyance and walking away after the 15th tangent.

I've been known to post a rant or two in my time, but generally I tend to stick to a pretty straight "this is what happened, followed by this" linear narrative, and THEN go into the rant, once my readers are fully informed of the context of the situation.

That was just an obnoxious article to try to work one's way through. Not worth the effort.

I must agree unfortunately, it's just too annoying to read.

Sounds about like what I would expect him to say. I have read every book he has written and it does not surprise me that he was "Ambushed" by a group that he is the exact thing that they hate.
