What about Loonix and Manny Goldstein? riderinthestorm Mar 2016 #157
Loonix and NYC_SKP should apply for reinstatement Renew Deal Mar 2016 #161
They were banned for encouraging DUers to sign pledges that they would never vote for Hillary. yardwork Mar 2016 #171
Your post is false. You should get your facts straight before posting. merrily Mar 2016 #305
That information is directly from the PPR message from Admins on their profiles: yardwork Mar 2016 #352
Facts, pesky old facts! MADem Mar 2016 #368
No, I don't. First, your post did not even match what the admin said about Manny. merrily Mar 2016 #381
Wrong, L0on did NOT urge DU members to sign that pledge. Here is what L0on posted for discussion. Autumn Mar 2016 #415
