Calling Hillary and DWS "bitches", calling a DUer a "knothead", saying we'd be lucky if a DUer died.
Not exemplary posts. Perhaps the time out will be used for some rethinking.

After all, how would we like it if someone called Sanders a "needle dick" or "manwhore" or some other creepy thing? How would we vote on the posts, if alerted on?

I'd been meaning to warn sonofspy777 to be more careful. It's tempting to sound off when we're upset, but it's a luxury we can't afford.

Every single one of us is needed, and that goes triple for those who write OPs in Bernie's favor.

It's really too bad that this happened. It didn't have to.
