It got Skinner and EarlG to sit up and take notice, that's for sure! It was like a mass lemming drive going further and further to the right in reaction to people's calm and reasoned objection to the T&A threads, and they couldn't help themselves, I guess.

I'm glad they stated outright that Egalitarian(Ha!)_Thug was banned for being a homophobe - the LGBTQ crowd has had to suffer through so many homophobic threads in the last half year, like the Sochi Olympics, salvation army, Pope Francis threads (and I say that as a devout Catholic - I can recognize bigotry even when it reflects badly on me and my group) that they deserve to have it affirmed that there are homophobes posting on DU.
