It is with a heavy heart that I post this [View all] Aerows Feb 2014 OP

The first post must be from the Host's forum, which means most of us can't read it. ScreamingMeemie Feb 2014 #1

I am privy to that forum Aerows Feb 2014 #4

It's also poor form to bring the host forum's business into GD Major Nikon Feb 2014 #56

I apologize for any offense n/t Aerows Feb 2014 #59

I agree. It's creepy as hell. PeaceNikki Feb 2014 #16

Obviously he hasn't read "What Uncle Sam Really Wants" by Chomsky NutmegYankee Feb 2014 #2

how about those who defened this teacher on the "Ghetto" trick or treaters JI7 Feb 2014 #31

How about them? Aerows Feb 2014 #36

it should not be acceptable to defend racists like that JI7 Feb 2014 #39

Heaven forbid people speak up for pissing on other people's lawns Aerows Feb 2014 #50

yeah, because that's what the "ghetto" kids teacher was really complaining about JI7 Feb 2014 #53
