How am I as a human being suppose to respond to this. Options

I just got back from playing on the Lets Get It On servers.
While playing, a player who named his COD2 character the same name as the killer of Virginia Tech signed on and was playing. I asked him politely to please change his name because it was just blasphemy and beyond disrespect out of all the names he could choose, it be Cho Sueng Huei (is that how u spell it)

As you all know, 32 innocent souls were masacred at Virginia Tech last week by one man and then he himself commited suicide.

So then after I asked him , he started asking blatantly why he should change his name. and i explained why. then he told me "Well thats waht American soldiers do everyday in Iraq" so i just blew up and was swearing everywhere and i just signed off eventually.

now, i understand everybody has a right to freedom of speech. but to play a video game using the name of a mass murderer for u game name? for all i could give a **** his name could be Fred or Donkey or )*U#)*#UR)*UR)*U#, but it had to be that name.

How would you all have responded to this?

Question: I've seen players who use names of people in history who committed horrible crimes (ie. HITLER, JEFFREY DAHMER, OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBER, THE ZODIAK.........the list goes on), and don't see people asking them to be banned or put on the bad list, where do we draw the line people?

Look..... i agree with you all about the topic , but there would be many people out there who play online that would be booted or banned. I Think people should be very careful when picking a name that they want to play under.

Some people in the MOB-clan would be banned or put on the bad name list if some people(not me) had their say.

p.s. the names I've listed above are actual player names that i have seen people use while I was playing online.

I'm not trying to be the bad guy, just stating the facts.
