once or twice, because as an older white woman I don't think I have much standing to say anything here. It seems as if you, as a group, have been incredibly tolerant of disrupters, and I'm genuinely distressed that you have had to put up with such nonsense in a forum called Democratic Underground.

Ban away. Some people do deserve it.

I myself have been banned from one group and one group only, and while I think they (the Hillary group) are far too sensitive to criticism, it is within their rights to ban whoever they want.

So please keep your group strong.
