You're assuming that calling names represents a threat and therefore justifies your actions in calling a name back. Calling someone a name in response does nothing to prevent any threats from being carried out.
Self Defense is used to prevent something from happening to you. That doesn't apply over a message board, you can't prevent anything.
Bring it on logic boy.
