Sorry. If I had a young man or lady that was my child who worked very hard for years
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=3389052
REASON FOR ALERT:
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)
YOUR COMMENTS:
"Everyone leave their sex drive at home for a week. It won't hurt a bit." - Homophobic statement implying that all LGBT identity is tied up in sex and that the gays should ignore the Russian persecution during the Olympics.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: There is nothing wrong with this post

Thank you.
Hey, anyone got a fence we can mend?

(9,612 posts)4. What? There's gay genocide underway in Russia?
"Life is so fucking unfair. Get over it."

Just sickening.

(52,532 posts)6. I can't fix what the jury did
but I did fix the notion that s/he can run amok in here.
It's a relief.

(52,532 posts)8. No problem
it was a distinct pleasure. My next stop is meta.

(27,670 posts)9. There are many more ignorant, shallow RW homophobes here than ever before.
It is possible that many of them are sockbots.

I can fully understand your outrage.

wrong fucking buncha 6 people. the zimmerman 6 come to mind.
I'm glad you brought this forth, Pab.. it needed more discussion than that "leave it alone" dismissive.
