A reader of “Safe-Zone Violation!” — on the homepage today — says,

Jay,
I apologize for adding to the flood of mail you’ll get on today’s piece [no worries], but just a short time ago I was reading customer reviews of a combination printer/fax machine — how’s that for an apolitical topic? — when I saw what has to be the ne plus ultra of the genre [the genre of a safe-zone violation]:
“Just got the item a week ago, thinking there’s just a few negative review and a lot positive review proves that the printer must be good. Forgetting same people were voted for Bush 2 times.:)”
Is there nowhere left to go? Obviously, anybody who writes about pro hockey or conducts an orchestra or makes a movie is going to take shots at Republicans. [That is ironic-sarcastic, alluding to my piece.] But a printer review? No doubt, your readers will be telling you about weird and inappropriate anti-Republican outbursts all day long. [They are.] But I’m as sure that my example is the worst as I am that it contains at least seven affronts to the English language.

Well, I think the worst “safe-zone violations” are the ones that occur in church — but this reader of ours has certainly found a goodie (so to speak)!
