Spam is a problem, I get it, let's do something to fix the problem, but let's not throw out the baby with the bath water. I think we're a smart group of people, and I believe that we can put our minds together to come up with a solution which is not only effective, but also fair.
Go out and do it. I dare you.
But until you have done so, please don't cry about those that are actually doing something, right now. Because you are not.
