I only referred to Blind Democracy. I'm not on those other lists. Hearing
that stuff would just upset me. I may very well hear some of it today at our
family gathering. I hope that no one decides to discuss anything political
because I find their ideas very painful to hear.

Miriam, not unfounded at all. We have had pro-police statements before. I
have heard folks talking in support of the misscariiages of justice. This
was especially true after the Eric Gardner episode. There was open
condemnation of the protesters. If you read the blind-chat or blind-ex
listservs around then you would know exactally what I am talking about. And,
I won't even get started about the comments made after Ferguerson incident.
More than one person was chanting about the kid getting what he deserved and
other bullshit like that. If you only read the comments of the two dozen or
so regular posters on blind-democracy you can easily be lulled into thinking
that what I observed is nonsense but you need to look at a broader picture.

Frank,
That's an unfounded assumption on your part.

Sadly, I suspect some of the suburbanites on this list are pulling for the
murderer here:
