there are a lot of upset people here

[LSK]

If you are too upset and you cant control yourself, please log off and do something else for the rest of the night.

If you are not upset, dont pour salt in the wounds of those who are. You are just making things worse.

You dont want to be banned from here and you dont want to get others banned from here.

Use some common sense people and try to be understanding.

1. Thanks for the reminder...Like the one from Ari Fleischer in 2001

Like the one from Ari Fleischer in 2001 - "reminders to all Americans that they need to watch what they say, watch what they do."

Obviously, that warning is alive and well tonight.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

9. Oh puhleeze....

I don't thik that's what OP means.

[jackstraw45]

13. "You dont want to be banned from here ..."

In MY America, you don't get banned, shunned, arrested, etc for expressing an opinion.

FREEDOM is being mourned here.

[LSK]

18. calling mods torture lovers should be allowed???

:shrug:

[tnlefty]

28. Whoa, I totally missed that one.

Seems as though I miss a lot, though.

[LostinVA]

I did too... man

Who did that?

[LSK]

11. way to completely miss the point

Thanks.

[jackstraw45]

Not directed at you....but the state we're in, literally and otherwise

Your POST, not you, is just a sad reminder of the times we live in.

I understand your intent to chill folks out but these are NOT times to be chill - things have gone a bit too far in this country for that.

People NEED to be able to vent somewhere - if not at DU, where?

[alittlelark]

34. Perhaps in the REAL WORLD

We need to figure out how to vent.

29. That is NOT want LSK means --= they're one of the good guys

[alittlelark]

33. Do you REALLY think that comparison would stand to scrutiny?

We have quite a few 'wounded' and 'distressed' soldiers for DEMOCRACY and the CONSTITUTION here.

Your comparison is not 'apples and oranges' it is 'apples and the Aurora Borealis'.

2. We don't have that luxery any longer

To sit back and hope that everything goes back to normal.

Yes, many of us are so angry and older enough to know that we are just repeating the mistakes of past history. It is hard to just log off and hope that tomorrow the sun will come out.

I am so mad tonight, but I am trying to hold my tongue and fingers.

[LSK]

6. its not about hoping the sun comes out tomorrow

Its about posting with your brain tomorrow because you didnt let your heart get yourself banned tonite.

[Jeanette in FL]

14. I understand what you are saying

But so many of us have no one else who understands the ramifications of what today means.

I hope that the moderators and my fellow posters will forgive any of us who cross the line tonight. It is truly in the heat of the moment. Lurkers needs to know that what has gone down tonight was a turning point in American history or the end of American history.

Thank you for the talk down it is truly appreciated.

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. And then again, common sense just doesn't work with some people.

In fact, they call one a tramp when one tries to reason with them. :hi: :toast:

[derby378]

4. "Upset?" I'm incandescent with fucking anger, here

But I feel this is safe space where I can share my frustrations with fellow DUers. This is my on-line family.

:grouphug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. Yes, thank you, even when we disagree.

Best place on the internets I say. :grouphug:

[Drewskie]

5. ok :) (nt)

[C_U_L8R]

7. and there are a lot of disruptors around here

beware of weeping freeps

they think they can discourage us.... bwhahahaha

this is just more ammo to squash them with.
thanks freeps.

[StellaBlue]

10. If Clinton was 'crazed' I am positively ready for Bedlam

[high density]

12. I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

Then again, what am I going to do about it?

21. Good point

$$ to DNC and Tom Allen, my nice rep, tonight.

[StellaBlue]

17. SEVENTH?!?!?!?!

According to CNN, the overturning of the US Constitution is the SEVENTH most important story?

[Nutmegger]

15. Kick and recommended for good advice! [nt]

[Beardie]

20. Hear Hear!

Good advice. Time to take a hot bath and relax, which I what I want to do a little later.

Tomorrow is another day, and politics is eternal. No sense getting uberstressed.

Even warriors take rest before a battle to be at their best form.

[Swamp Rat]

23. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[Beardie]

26. Thanking you!

This is quite an interesting forum.

[seabeyond]

22. didnt you post harry reid..... fuck you. i am confused by your post

you gonna take a rest

[LSK]

25. i said it once, got it out of my system

And it was a dumb deal.

I didnt call him a torture lover.

I dont call the mods torture lovers.

I dont make posts saying screw democrats forever.

I dont provoke people who do the above.

Do I look out of control to you?

[seabeyond]

30. point taken. though a fuck you is pretty strong.

but i hear what you say. i had just gone into the fuck you thread and then this thread. i even backed out of this thread to make sure i was correct,.... hence my confusion at the preceived contradiction

[bigwillq]

24. That's some very good advice.

:bounce: :hi:

[Ksec]

27. I do that quite often

When the zanies go into attack mode I just go away and chill for a while. Its not worth it.

[lvx35]

31. Yeah, it took me awhile, but I've learned that too.

Good conversation is online is worth my time, arguing isn't.

[alittlelark]

32. I'm verrrry upset... this is my first post in 6 or so hours

hell, it's the 1st time I've looked at DU in 6+/- hours.....


I'm glad I missed whatever you are refering to. I have a tendancy to crawl inside my shell to grieve then gather strength.

I am now feeling STRONG and ready - for whatever lies ahead.

[wagthedogwar]

35. I get more pissed by the hour

I couldn't sleep last night.
