If you're going to complain, be fair about it. valerief Oct 2015 #3

If you haven't used it, then help me put a stop to it. And I have called out Clinton supporters for ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #11

I actually usually trash Bernie-Clinton squabble threads. I'm killing time now, so valerief Oct 2015 #18

Same thing applies to "Bernie-bots" or "Berniebros." MineralMan Oct 2015 #4

it's childish! And more than a bit annoying considering one of these two people will have to face ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #16

Yes. That's why I never use terms like that and MineralMan Oct 2015 #31

Thank you MM. It looks like my fellow Bernie fans are going with the childish name calling... ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #41

Well, they do it at their own risk, on either side. MineralMan Oct 2015 #48

Name calling is name calling no matter who does it or who they do it to. A Simple Game Oct 2015 #133

Totally agree. BlueCheese Oct 2015 #93

I'm not a fan of the name-calling either n/t arcane1 Oct 2015 #6

I'm not sad. I don't like seeing Bernie supporters being childish brats. nt ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #22

Well as soon as you buy the board we will take your directive into consideration. Until then Autumn Oct 2015 #33

Do you not get the hypocrisy? Yes, we ALL can say what we want. djean111 Oct 2015 #19

So, you're opting for the childishness? nt ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #23

The childishness is on both sides. Although I don't think that Bernie's supporters have djean111 Oct 2015 #32

it's not an "order". It's a strongly-worded suggestion that we not damage our potential ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #36

Um, no, it reads as a ranty little "order". djean111 Oct 2015 #42

Really? You can say what you want but we can't post unless we say what you want us to say? Autumn Oct 2015 #26

So, you want to continue the negative name-calling. Got it. nt ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #30

I'll post what I want. Got that? n/t Autumn Oct 2015 #35

Even if it's childish name-calling? Got it. nt ChisolmTrailDem Oct 2015 #38
