156. I am glad to see this being discussed here in LGBT.
Wed May 9, 2012, 09:50 PM
May 2012

Yeah sure--- Meta has been the Meca for MM threads the last couple of months--- but make no mistake---he started the shitfest with his half-ass Mea-Culpa---a Mea-Culpa that in mho---is still half-assed.

I honestly have to say that I never ran into this guy at DU2. I may have, but really can't recall.

I encountered him for the very first time in DU3 in the sports forum.

Ahh the Sports Forum--- at DU2 it was a rough and tumble anything goes type group. I believe it was and still is a group that is tarnished a bit by members who never participate. Oh sure--- it isn't perfectly politically correct---sports smack talk usually isn't--- but we police ourselves and if some get carried away, we take care of it.

My first run in with MM was about a post that had been running in DU for about a year titled "Suck on it you Jealous Douchebags".

The premise of the thread was me telling other members they were simply jealous of the Miami Heat and their new player, LaBron James. What a thread--- lot's of smack talk---me giving---certainly getting it... fun for all.

Well--- the first couple for days out of the gate at DU 3 the thread got alerted on--- one for the word Douchebag--- and one for the "Suck on it" phrase. Needless to say that caused quite the ruckus.

And then a post popped up in Meta by Mr. MM himself asking if "Suck on it" is appropriate.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/124022498

I couldn't fucking believe it. And then the lectures starting coming.

Here's my favorite line in that thread:
"I wouldn't. I'm smart enough to write insults that aren't sexist or homophobic".---yeah MM wrote that.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1240&pid=22550

Of course this was a month before he was found out to have written plenty of that shit at Free Republic.

And found out he was.

Keep in mind---his Mea-Culpa came after he was busted by a member who found his posts on FR.

This was full on damage control.

This guy made my fucking posting life here at DU3 a pain in the ass. Ain't no doubt in my mind I was his target.

I'm like what the hell--- what's with this guy?

It wasn't until his famous outing that I realized that I wasn't the only member getting lectured by him--- members started coming out of the woodwork who were harassed.

Then--- I was PISSED! The fucking hypocrisy just floored me. Yeah--- I went on a mission--- a mission to expose more about this former Gay Bashing freeper.

Here's the thing--- the dude says he was a mole at FR---only there to poke the freepers--- errrr OK...

I don't buy it for one minute.

He says that he had wrong information and that is why he posted about Gay Pedophiles, etc.

OK---so here's another FR thread for you.

He posts a thread titled: Parks, school offer Gay Games sites
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1548093/posts

No one responds right away so he kicks it by saying "Huh".

And then it catches and the shitbag homophones go into an orgy of hate.
Read through the thread---but before you do---take a couple of stiff shots.

He then posts this in the thread:
Presidential politics: Oak Park is in Cook County, which voted Democratic in the last two presidential elections. According to unofficial vote totals for 2004, Bush received 583,774 votes and John Kerry received 1,389,631 votes.

What he's saying here is that this community that sponsored the Gay games voted for a Democrat by 2 to 1.

Bad Democrats.

And finally in that thread this: These are keywords associated with his name:
cowboypuddingeating; gay; gleefest; hissyfithurdles; homosexualagenda; illinois; javelinecatch; nea; publicschools; school; soaponaropetoss; tossthepurse

Now I've been told that anyone can attach keywords to other members names--- I don't fucking buy it--but no matter. The question is---why would he allow that vile shit to be attached to his name?

Check it out yourself.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1548093/posts

Now some here yell to the top of their lungs that people can change. ---Sure they can...

But we're talking 6 short years ago when most of us here were fighting the good fight against shitbirds that permeate Free Republic.

And after he's banned he pops up here with his holier than though lectures and attitude... about what we can say and what we can't say---telling us that he would never write homophobic comments---and posting about LGBT subjects like he's a fucking expert.

I've been accused of stalking this guy and for a couple of weeks I may have---simply because it fucking pisses me off that he goes about his business---nothing to see here--- move on... ha ha.

He has since deleted every thread he started in Meta--- like I said--- nothing to see--- move on......

I am pretty much done with this guy--- I see his posts pop up--- a couple the last day discussing LGBT---and I simply hold my nose and move on....

If some here think the dude is reformed--- fine.... but don't get pissed that most don't buy it.

What kind of turnaround would someone have to exhibit? Prism Apr 2012 #4
Mumbled apologies aren't enough for me HillWilliam Apr 2012 #18
If the person believed this 20 or 30 years ago, then probably yes obamanut2012 May 2012 #81
This smells like bait to me. Now why don't you reveal who said such a thing? MADem Apr 2012 #2
Juries keep hiding it Prism Apr 2012 #3
I question you because you didn't reveal who said it or the context. MADem Apr 2012 #10
What, exactly, would you like me to do? Prism Apr 2012 #14
OK--I take your point. MADem Apr 2012 #21

I don't want to fight over it either Prism Apr 2012 #26
I was laboring under a complete misapprehension, and I am sorry if I came off snarky, myself. MADem Apr 2012 #46
It kinda bothers me you are in here lecturing the LGBT Group obamanut2012 May 2012 #83
I didn't mean to lecture. I didn't understand the context. MADem May 2012 #85

Well he did not say sorry at all. He lied right here on DU and did not own it nor apologize Bluenorthwest Apr 2012 #16
But it's not civil of you to say so Prism Apr 2012 #17
Dishonesty is never civil, a lie is not civil. I will always call out a lie and a liar... Bluenorthwest Apr 2012 #19
You and I are on the same page Prism Apr 2012 #20
I am in error then--I thought he did apologize. MADem Apr 2012 #22
