DemocratSinceBirth has been FFR'ed ... [View all]

for, as you can imagine, the silliest reason ... in a thread that, for the (seemingly) millionth time, someone trots out the "Server Scandal". DSB's, apparently, hide-worthy comments were: 1) posting that "Several posters have had their accounts flagged for indictment incitement..."; and 2) posting "Three more days...Forewarned is forearmed." (The hides were 9 minutes apart)

Or, maybe the posts were hidden because of the "Bye Bye" GIFs he included ... either way, the hides were thin-skinned BS.

It should be remembered that DSB has always been good and supportive member of this Group and a friend to African American, Hispanic, and glbtq posters (and in my opinion, has shown great restraint towards some really, really, foul actors) ... Further, DSB has always defended President Obama and his policies, and has been a strong defender of the Clintons.

Whereas, I would think that someone with that background would be held out as a model on a Democratic board, it seems those characteristics draw wrath, instead, these days.

I find that odd; but, hey ... a couple more days, and this, likely, will resolve itself ... until the discussion is directly about race matters.
