lovemydog (10,179 posts) http://www.democraticunderground.com/118744241Thank you DSB and Skinner.from DemocratSinceBirth: BLACK PEOPLE ARE GETTING DISRESPECTED LEFT AND RIGHT HERE IT WOULD REALLY BEHOOVE YOU TO SAY SOMETHING AND SET A TONE! PLEASE, IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS GOOD! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE DSB Reply from Skinner: I have been incredibly disappointed by some of the things that have been posted here recently especially some of the things posted in reference to African Americans. That disappointment is compounded by the fact that too many DUers seem to be perfectly willing to justify or excuse the things that have been posted. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, and I can only assume that people are so caught up in the partisan fight that they can't bring themselves to take a step back, remove their candidate supporter hats, and look critically at some of the things that are being said. I think that it would be a mistake for me to wade into the primaries and start overturning juries or doing anything that might look like a partisan power play, because then the discussion is about me rather than about the content of what is being posted. But I want to be clear that the admins are aware of what is going on, we do not like it, and we have a number of ideas -- in the medium-term and the long-term -- that we believe will make a difference. http://www.democraticunderground.com/12599671
Number23 (22,822 posts) 7. It's a step. A small one and it's late as hell, but it's a stepI love DSB. I truly love that man. I don't think that anyone in this group is surprised by the amount of garbage that's being posted here, including the high fiving and propping up of the incredibly small number of wacked out black and "black" folks that seem to be actively and openly PARTICIPATING in this bullshit. The Internet brings out the worst in people, everyone knows this. This is why just about every article on race on every news site has to close its comments section. What has truly been the only thing that's surprising to me is the fact that the admins have done nothing about it. Hopefully that is about to change.

I am trying not to make a decision right now because I am upset, but not even sure I want to be on DU anymore after the shit that has been allowed during this primary in the name of "fairness" Admins should have come in with AT LEAST an alert stalking policy. That could have been consistently applied and not seen as benefiting one candidate's group or the other.

Skinner talks to the negros
That was the shortest post from Skinner I've ever seen! Basically it was "I have nothing to say."
"I feel your pain" and then he walks away.I gotta admit the way the Dems can keep blacks on a leash and still have them believing they actually care about them is impressive..
