Keep this in mind: public figures, including those you consider to be heroes and above reproach, have no right not to be insulted. In fact, neither do private people for that matter. So you just have to live with the idiots. Unless you control the website, there's not much you can do about it. If you do own the website, you can restrict speech on it all you want. The owners of youtube have taken a hands-off approach, so that's that. Their property, their website, their rules.
Take heart in this: in a free environment, those who write intelligent things will, in the long run, have a greater impact on readers' minds than those who write garbage. So all those punks on youtube who like to curse and can't spell or punctuate will be forgotten eventually, while those who say sensible things will be remembered and listened to.
