I don't participate in threads talking or complaining about the Hillary Group...

...because I feel they have a right to their safe haven as we have a right to ours. But I did like one poster's suggestion (sorry - couldn't find the original post) that we add in our sig lines what number we are in the banned list. I did mine...

...and I can't remember who did them, or how to find out that info. I'm sorry! Somebody help me out here?

They'll see your name and freak out. It's as simple as that!

They are almost hilarious in their fear-based machete work.

If they can't do that I think I will just stay off their list. I'm sure virtually all of them that venture on to the GD board are already on my Full Ignore list, which is quite extensive. I barely see them, only add 3 or 4 new names on an average day now.

At least I don't swing at the return-arm any more. That habit did die hard.

(And when I found this link by Googling, I saw another video called "Typewriter Symphony" or something like that. That was fun too!)

After seeing a 100% failure rate on substantive posts from Hillary supporters in the first 3-4 days I was at DU, I implemented a policy of Full Ignore first, ask questions later.

After being blocked on my first post, I blocked the discussion group, and the admins of the discussion group.

Good luck reaching me if by some miracle HRC wins the nomination.

I was late to the party, but it took all of 1 minute to get banned. I wish they worked at the DMV that is some fast service.

GP is pretty clear for the most part, and that's the only other place I look at. GD-P is not on my list of places to visit either.

Besides, I figure they have a right to believe what they want. If they can discuss issues sanely I wouldn't mind seeing their posts. But, that's not going to happen. So, ignore, ignore, ignore. They can feel free to do the same to me.

Happy people all around!
