45. Dear Admins: May we please have un-rec back?

Jul 2012

Come on guys... WTF? Stupid shit like this gets posted every fucking day and it would be wicked nice if I could, in some way, show what I thought of it without have to give it any kind of reply. I've tried ignoring this kind of crap but it is still here, day after day, the same anti-Obama and anti-Democratic bullshit. I really have no interest in arguing against repug shit and to be frank... You guys are simply too slow to pull the trigger and ban the trolls that post this shit day after day.

I would want full tranparency... Crap, make my name bigger then anyone else's when I give an un-rec, let them see it... I want it seen that I un-rec crap like this. What I don't want to do is have to argue with stupid or bring more attention to it... And those are the only tools we have for it.

Please, please... We need un-rec.
