The people who engage in character assassination are SCUM.

The people who practice McCarthyist witchhunting are SCUM.

The people who cheerlead and apologize for illegal and unconstitutional activities that violate our rights and threaten to turn our country into an authoritarian police state are SCUM.

If I was Skinner, I'd tombstone every single one of them. The shit they pull is something that should only be seen in places like Breitbart and Redstate. If they want to act like right-wing bullies, they should go over there.

It's a fucking disgrace they're allowed to do what they've done on a board that purports to call itself "Democratic."
