Very difficult to remain "civil" to obvious callous racists, who continue to claim they are not.

A number of them have been DU Gungeon regulars before being booted, some of whom lasted considerable time here.

Reminds me of Bill Maher joke: "There are two things conservatives can't stand, (1) Being called a "racist". . . . . . . (2) Black people."
