60. What bandages?

Apr 2012

I'm not saying Zimmerman isn't full of shit. I'm just saying that DU has proven itself time and time again that they are not as progressive as they think they are. It's a huge circle jerk and a mob mentality. Anyone who tries to discuss anything is a troll if they don't tow the company line. The hatred on here has become sad. I used to think that DU had some great minds, but this Zimmerman/Martin thing was the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back.

I have talked to people "in real life" about this and almost everyone was on the same page. Fuck the media and let's see what happened.
