I keep a window open for CL. Some of the posts are funny and nasty. And some great political discourse in a crude and cutthroat fashion.
Its just a shame its a haven for racists, homophobes and mysoginists.

1. The missed connections page cracks me up
It's like... "I saw a woman at Starbucks today... was that you?" :eyes:

2. The San Diego page has an abortion discussion going on right now.
With mostly men expressing their narrow-minded opinions.

3. It's like picking up a rock
and seeing everything nasty crawling underneath it. It's what people really think when they know they won't get personally nailed on it.

5. Portland craigslist is being saturated by hate messages
From some right wing loonie, just saturated. Many different names, same message and writing style.

No phone number, Pity.
