DU is an unsafe site?

I just got that flashed twice on my screen on a big red page.

Anyone else? What's that about?

Update: There it is again. Its when I click on the thread, "The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Is Detaining People for ICE"

"This website has been reported as unsafe.
We recommend that you do not continue visiting this website"
