it's in the Barack Obama group so I didn't comment on it. Sheshe should have a right to express her opinion. Everyone on DU doesn't have to agree with it. These sub groups are here for a reason.

Will you take DU back or will you let her die? It is your choice. Democrats are leaving. Do something!

The problem for the police, however, is that these conversations are very much alive outside of DU. This is but one space. We've had many choices. Thank Jeebus for the interwebs.
