PTWB
(4,131 posts)but he made a threat glorifying the exceptionally cruel 'sport' of horse racing today. Many people took offense, knowing what we know about how inhumane and barbaric the 'sport' is. It could be related to that?
I'm not surprised that folks on DU don't take too kindly to the glorification of extreme animal cruelty.
I wont get into that discussion here, but good to have some context.

I'm not saying I do it on purpose, but if I'm squeaky clean, I might roll the dice.

And, yes, horses in the race circuit are abused and discarded quite regularly. And yes, people here are free to judge you regarding your support of said abusive culture.

PTWB
(4,131 posts)But if it was one supporting animal cruelty Im not surprised it was hidden.
obamanut2012
(26,164 posts)But a couple posters said it contained a threat?
PTWB
(4,131 posts)I figured it was just doubling down on his support for abusing horses for amusement.
obamanut2012
(26,164 posts)And, figure you are probably right. People can exaggerate so much!

(70,765 posts)more than they attack enemy wingnuts. These have the zeal of the converted and conduct their own mini-inquisition - often oblivious of core Liberal tolerance, free thinking, mile in other's shoes, etc.
Yea, they rack up more flames, vengeful Alerting, and bile than Deplorables, all the while portraying themselves as keepers of the liberal flame. Often they don't get the post they are excoriating, just knee-jerk. Some even brag about having another Alert ambush on their belts.
