Ok, DU, who was rude to Breitbart?

He had his post hidden by a jury! His widdow feewings are hurt.

Democratic Underground Hides Occupy Assaults, Smears Brandon Darby

The popular liberal website Democratic Underground had a vicious, factually inaccurate post about Bigs contributor Brandon Darby and our work on the story of assaults at Occupy. I decided to correct these errors and my post was promptly banned by a “jury” at Democratic Underground and hidden from view; another clear example of the constant liberal censorship and how the entire left seems intent on covering up assaults at Occupy.

The original thread started Saturday was entitled Why are FBI agent provocateurs taunting Occupy? was started by a user named FarLeftFist, who wrote:

A little background: Brandon was outed as an FBI agent after posing as an Leftist activist in 2008. He threw a number of people in jail as an agent provocateur and now spends his time working for Andrew Breitbart and still works undercover. He spends his time on Twitter along with Andrew Breitbart taunting Leftists and posting smears ALL DAY LONG. Him and Andy also spend alot of time along with Dana Loesch having twitter-wars with Keith Olbermann and others. I have been involved in these back and forths as a twitter user myself. They get nasty, ugly, and even threatening as Darby and Breitbart unleash their moronic henchmen on anyone they choose.


What’s an agent provocateur? Wikipedia defines it as:

The lot of them together don't constitute a full set of teeth.
Any one of them that strays too far for too long upsets the feeding cycle.
And the lack of nutrition is affecting their collective IQ of 70.
So the MIRT did them a huge mercy.

Don't (the occupiers) have jobs? I can't afford to take off from work to go camp out...plus they are creating health/hygiene issues.

This knucklehead of a girl is...out of the gene pool now, and that's great...I'm sick of bleeding heart types, like you who blame cops for all your problems, and FAIL to take responsibility for your own actions.

I understand that it was an immature attempt to knock the occupy movement but I think that as a group we are certainly up to the task of dealing with such nuisances without deleting them. When the best that they have is this little burp, if we start scrubbing such nonsense, they will start to think we take them seriously. Or did I miss something.

Wait till they bring on their heavy artillery and then we can destroy them.

He didn't stop anyone from doing anything. On the contrary, where ever he went, he tried to instigate and provoke violence.

Of course Breitbart defends him. When you are too disgusting for decent company, your only recourse is to defend your fellow cockroaches.

Still doesn't understand the difference between censorship and public opprobrium. It's unlikely he ever will.

Secondly, while I didn't serve on the jury in question, I did make a comparison between Breitbart, a "festering boil," and an "oozing pustule" on a different site last week, so maybe it was me.

He is missing the word "Asshole" between Big and Journalism on his little enema of a blog, though.

He's got the shaking-angry mocking and the getting pissed off all rolled up in one post. A nerve has been breached.

Next, we win, and we'll really give him something to pout about.

It's funny how his minions confuse "taking out the trash" with "censorship." It's only ok if you're on their team, I suppose!

What tools!


For those wanting a refresher--here's the public "Beginning of the End" for a certain well-lubricated little ninny:



How humiliating! I suppose he would need a sense of shame for the guy to understand how much of an ass he made of himself...but damn! That's a "Crawl away and never be seen again in public" performance!

These are grown men with kids, saying things like "Bring it, Leftists" and other BS. The fact that Darby and Breitbart found this post by me shows what a paranoid world they live in, and it's no fault but their own. Also, I never said Darby did provoke the 2 individuals, but think about this: For a group that wants "small govt" they sure do nail people with charges for crimes that weren't even committed. Like Minority Report type stuff. Their idea of small govt is a dictator-ship where there is one central ruler surrounded by an army of guards imposing martial law. A utopia where dissent is squashed by smears, violence and suppression. There is no middle ground for them, they can't at all understand that they live in a country where people are free-thinkers and have many different and diverse world-views than their own. Sad really. Imagine they spent as much time trying to unify the nation with a message of tolerance and peace as they spend on spreading hate and lies.

Did Judy Ancel and Don Giljum sue him for the poorly-edited distortion he tried to put out as fact?

I'd watch with great amusement if he was sued into poverty as a direct result of his pro-active fanaticism.
