Nov 2013

I realize there's a concerted effort to silence people here, but frankly, I think that that is about as dishonorable as you can get. Beyond that, there's a concerted effort to kick people off of DU by alerting and getting innocuous posts hidden

Can anyone really defend this hide?

lame. care to actually post a defense of the TPP?

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
