Oops. Got banned from the BS group.

I musta accidentally posted something. I've had that group trashed for months. Might have followed a link from some other group and ended up in fantasyland.

Oh well. At least I earned that badge of honor before the Sanders group goes away in 3...2...

Almost posted in there by mistake yesterday but decided
to double check before I hit the post button.

Good thing too or I would have also been banned lol.

I got alerted and had my account suspended pending review after posting only three things in the Hillary Group because someone thought I was saying rude things about BS. I thought it was ok to say express disgust about BS supporters saying nasty things about about Hillary (Go Hillary! Hillary for President 2016!!!) if I did it in the Hillary Group but I got dinged for it by someone who wasn't even part of the conversation. Alerts, suspensions of accounts, right wing talking points and being banned...This is like war around here! Im shocked to even see derogatory postings about our wonderful President Obama. Unbelievable. I hope this isn't indicative of how the Democratic Convention goes. (Although I am certainly gonna get out the popcorn for the Repub. Convention.) It is too bad there isn't one group or room where Hillary supporters can vent without being nailed by BS people. I don't have a problem with BS supporters having one closed room where they can vent too.

It was on a thread, now gone, about Sanders supporters voting for Trump.

I stand by what I posted, even if I do not know how I managed to get into their forum.

People are usually banned from that group because they accidently posted in it. I know I did and was almost instantly banned because of what I thought was an innocuous post.

Hey, it's a badge of honor around here!

I didn't bash him either. I just pointed out that I felt they were exaggerating his rally attendance. Sensitive bunch over there.

for accidentally posting there in response to a post that was linked from here. The post I responded to was so sexist that several members of the Bernie group convinced the poster (a woman) to self-delete. If you dare to say anything there that is not 100% complimentary to Bernie, you'll be banned.

That's why I don't have the honor of being banned. GD is just as bad most of the time. PLEASE may this whole thing be over Wed. AM! Doing my part by voting for HRC here in PA.

Perhaps those of us who have been banned from the BS group can form our own group. We could bash him all we wanted there, and they couldn't touch us
