 :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

No all it takes to get banned is going against the hive.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

I consider her a friend, but she is wrong in that post. Piss of the wrong DUers and you can get banned. The admins only apply their rules when it is convenient for them.

This is exactly how ObamaCare will work.  I wouldn't be surprised if they hire the DU admins/mods to administer ObamaCare.

Hmmmm....

1. Got TS'ed for ribbibing the Lying Mess Paprika, or whatever the hell her name is.
2. Got banned for voting the wrong way in a poll.
3. Not really sure why I was banned.  SomeDUmmy alerted on me as a mole I guess.
4. They didn't think Evorlrak was a funny name.  LP got me again.
5. Asked what the logical conclusion of what some leberal policy was.

All this and I have never been banned from another site.

I think all I said was that if I was a lesbian, I'd admire myself in a mirror all day.  The context made it a clear joke.  I guess gay on DU translates to no sense of humor.

I cannot disagree with you there at all - she seems to spend her entire life angry and looking for reasons to be offended. Life if too short to waste it on that much self-generated grief.

Some of you "old-timers" may remember my suicide run at DU about 5 years ago.  I signed up under the name "Ralph Wiggum", and was banned nearly immediately.

Of course I posted something rather derogatory, but still. :-)

Well, ya gotta be discrete and get your foot in the door, make some pals in safe areas.  Then just throw a real idea out once in awhile.  Your pals will stick up for you if you get attacked.  Your post may or may not be deleted, but you'll live to see another day.

Well, if you do, let us know.  It's kind of a waste, though, just burning an old poster's account that might be influential, ya know?
