20. I know, I just find it ironic that demeaning a group on DU is OK with some/many

If anyone did that based on gender, race, religion, sexual preference or identity, or pretty much any other factor, they'd be run out of town on a rail.

Makes me wonder if anyone referred to an LGBT person or Syrian refugee as a "Delicate Flower" and made up demeaning names for them, how long would they last on DU?

But "GUNZ!!!" are all that matter and it's OK to say anything you want about gun owners.

And as they continue to lose more and more ground to 2nd supporters, they get more and more virulent/desperate.

It's just another example of blatant hypocrisy at work and foolish me, I just expected better from DU.

But then again, they can't stop from pissing on each others legs about the primaries either. So there's not much to say positive about them.
