This type of castigation is terrible. Why leave a commenter's name in this voided space??

Sure, maybe this person did over-reach with his/her comment.. Okay.. So Remove It,  as was done before, but this pointed public humiliation is 'way over the top' G & M.

Further, what is with the 'light grey' typeface??? You certainly do not use it for G & M articles & stories. This light grey type face is difficult to read at times.

Plus, the amount of commenting space has been shortened dramatically. Then why leave this voided comment?

There are many interesting & truly astute G & M reader commenter's who engage with both You & Us, G & M...

Why not stop with this, metaphoric, 'village square manacles shaming' with its inherent humiliation?

Take Down the Comment, completely, please.
