[RKBA Democrat]

Darks: Thanks for the Ping.

My comment: the blanking blankety blanks! And the people who ultimately will taste the backlash as a result of this kind of activity will be individuals such as myself.

I'm not a prominent individual. But the fact that I *am* a Democrat, and openly so, is now going to be viewed with even more suspicion than it already is.

Will the last non-troll Democrat posting on FR please remember to turn out the lights?

Yeah, I know.
With the Dan Rather memos last year, the MSM was thoroughly embarrassed by FR, and they went after Buckhead for it.
They're also angry over their growing irrelevance, so they'll be guning for anyone who posts here, the more well known first.
They will, of course, be happy with anyone of us that they nail in any way shape or form.

We'll just have to remember to keep our wits about us in the middle of our cracking wise.
Goes double for the handful of Dems that post here because the mainstream Dem party is out of touch.

As you said you are openly a Democrate so IMHO I do not view you with suspicion you are stating who you and what you believe - free speech nothing wrong with it. The problem as I perceive it is when people pretend to be what they are not or are asking personal questions for whatever reason political or otherwise. Personal safety is important as well.
