What's up with NT only, gentle Jesus thinking?

Why do some attempt to discount the OT in deciding what is and isn't appropriate behavior for Christians living by grace?

How is such a teaching justified? The spiritual principles in the OT and in the law are still valid, as God does not change.

How does one persuade such a thinker of the validity of OT principles, or even of simple common sense things that are only hinted at in the bible, if they react by running straight to ground and begin to ask things such as whether you wear blended fiber clothing?

What is the arbiter of things disallowed in the OT now allowed, and things allowed in the OT now disallowed?

How does a sincere and moderate seeker of truth explain the relevance of the OT to the all-or-nothing crowd?
