I wrote about Steve Horner back in January. Steve Horner is on a quest to abolish “ladies night promotions” in local bars and clubs under the trumped up guise of equal rights and discrimination.  The amusing part is that he’s a bitter, divorced, sad looking troll who probably couldn’t get any even IF the ladies were trashed off free drinks.  Ironically he also apparently hawks books on child rearing and family.  Steve was kind enough to comment and label me as a sexually depraved moron, while completely eschewing any logic or discussion of his issues.    (p.s. I’m not normally the name caller, but my attempts at logic back in January failed miserably.)

Also back in January Dan made a comment on my blog that he had received a phone call from Steve after posting his contrary views on several blogs, including mine.  This mirrored what was written in the Westword this week: Dissenters and those writing to newspapers and blogs about Steve’s moronic stance have been receiving argumentative PHONE CALLS from Steve himself!  Here’s Dan’s comment:

When I e-mailed Steve about his one man’s anti-ladies night crucade ended up getting so agitated that he actually ended up calling me at HOME (can you say “psycho”?) and challenged me to a fight! As tempting as it was for me to meet this clown and give him the ass kicking he so very much deserves, I realized that the cons far outweighed the pros.

Now in follow up to this June 28th Westword article the Westword has warned writers not to publish their names, as Steve Horner may track them down for a lengthy agitating phone discussion. Or perhaps a knock on your front door.  Ugh.  Fiendishly creepy!  Here are the July 12th issue comments

Editor’s note: Would that we could. Westword will be seeing Steve Horner in court next month because of one of those filings. In the meantime, letter-writers be warned: Stephen Crout is not the only one to report a dialed-in diatribe. The letter writer who requested that her name be withheld last week did so because she, too, was the recipient of a call from Horner after her letter on a subject unrelated to ladies’ night (not that there is such a thing, as far as Horner is concerned) was published in Westword.

What a fucking idiot.  In the public forum of Letters to editors, blogs, Web 2.0, and all similar community exchanges there’s an unspoken etiquette that a comment and opinion can be voiced and propagated without the details of your person being harvested and further exploited.  For example in my recent post on Andrew and Joshua I picked apart their highly personal blog to no end, but that’s a PUBLIC internet space. I would NEVER violate their private lives via phone, or further attempt to interact with any stranger beyond the public spaces of print and internet exchange.  Steve Horner not only fails at handling the concept of marriage, but is obviously lost on basic people skills as well.   But what else do you except from a bitter Kirk Van Houten clone? (Hey I tried to reason with him in my last post, but name calling is the only language that works…)

In the meantime if you’d like to give Steve Horner a ring -  surprise,  his number is:  303-721-6281

Or stop by his bachelor pad at the Summit Ridge Apartments: 

8330 E. Quincy Avenue, A307
Denver, Colorado 80237

Judge must have granted wifey and kids the house after she explained how much time Steve spent cruising the bars monitoring the alcohol transactions of females.
