He didn't use the word, as far as I know. It was an interpretation of what he meant, and I agree, DU sabrina 1 Jun 2015 #152

He blamed the victims. Why am I not surprised? beam me up scottie Jun 2015 #83

It's kinda sad what he got banned for Lordquinton Jun 2015 #120

His posts in those threads were awful and they very clearly stated that people who engage in Bluenorthwest Jun 2015 #155
