Nov 2015

The Clinton supporters nailed her twice on Wednesday, so she'll have to wait for two hides to drop off, not just one.

You write that "one of the DU hosts also runs a site where they scheme to get Cali blocked from DU...." I'm not sure that's correct. I'm aware of two recently established pro-Clinton sites. One was established by the DU admins. The other has notoriously become a cesspool of venom against DUers who are not 100% on board with Clinton. AFAIK these are two different sites and the vile characteristics of the latter have not been duplicated on the former, but I waste no time visiting either so I can't say for sure.

Note to jurors: No, I can't prove absolutely definitively that it was Clinton supporters who stalked cali and managed to hit her with two hides, after blatantly goading her into one of them. It's my opinion. Given the avalanche of bleating from Clinton supporters about supposed alert stalking against them, the community has clearly established the standard that complaints about alert stalking are permissible.
