In reply to the discussion: What are "Biblical Values"? [View all]Starboard Tack
(11,181 posts)165. You obviously have some serious problems
First you say I'm not a bigot "you've failed to show bigotry" and now you want to talk about me being a bigot. WTF is wrong with you? Me stalking YOU?
I have considered putting you on ignore. Others claim it improves their DU experience, but I've never liked bullies and hypocrites, so I'll be checking in occasionally to see how you're behaving. Meanwhile, feel free to ignore me.
You too have a really nice day.
