42. People who attack Democrats are ruining this website

Tue May 17, 2016, 02:43 AM

May 2016

This site is in deep trouble if it continues to let anti-Democrats hide posts by Democrats.

This site was created for Democrats.

If you bash Sanders or Clinton outside of the Primaries forum, you deserve to be banned or at least called out. Under the current system, people posting attacks on Democrats and helping Donald Trump are running wild.

There should be a simple rule that anyone attacking Sanders or Clinton outside of the Primaries forum has their posts hidden and eventually banned.
