I would like to apologize to Obama supporters.
The racist crap is not acceptable. Everyone, regardless of candidate of choice, should speak out against it...wherever it occurs.

8. For the most part, it's always the same person...

And it's not just their racial slurs, but the hatred they spew here on a continual basis is often over the top.

The mods have had to lock so many of that person's threads, that it's mind-boggling to many of us why they haven't been tombstoned yet.

A few nights ago they kept getting one anti-Obama thread after the other locked, and asking the mods if they were on duty.

Pretty crazy they're still around...

12. Racist crap is never acceptable
but you did nothing wrong. You aren't a racist by any stretch of the imagination and you merely pointed out mind boggling hypocrisy.
