In general I concur, but I think that, in this case, the business
wasn't funny, it was highly offending someone, that person asked the
offending party to stop, and the offending party refused.

It's not as if Uriel was making references to Star Trek or something
equally unimportant or inane.  If he had been, I'm quite sure the
reaction would have been different.

I suspect Uriel may be permitted to rejoin the list once he learns how
not to be an asshole.  Then again, that may mean he never gets to
resubscribe.
