Turn off comments permanently!
The people who frequently comment on Yahoo articles seem to have never learned the old adage " If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all". The comments section of pretty much every article in the Yahoo feed rapidly devolves into the worst sentiments human beings are capable of expressing. I can see no benefit to society in providing a venue for anonymous cowards to vent their anger, fear, racism, homophobia, and hatered unproctored. Please do the internet a favor and remove the ability for average users to comment. Or better yet, charge a fee, require identification, and verification.

I applaud your comment Andrew. Loudmouths who want to yell at anyone who will listen were THE problem. Anonymous cowards is spot on.

That's not exactly true Andy....it's a 50/50 split of people in good moods vs people in bad moods (lol) just like anywhere else ;)
