The opponents have been doing this all by themselves.  Common sense is *not*
applied; what these people want is to always delete links to attack sites
100% of the time, never admitting any circumstances when such links might be
useful.

All the argument really is is whether links to attack sites are usually bad,
or whether links to attack sites are bad 100% of the time and may be rejected
robotically.  The latter position is the one taken by opponents of attack
site links.
