Craziness on second tri

KatieLM · October 2008

Over someone's siggy.

LovesGreenBay · October 2008

I was just going to post that! It freaking exploded over there. The siggy was pretty bad though!

KatieLM · October 2008

It was absolutely tasteless, but do I automatically assume the person behind it is a racist - no. Like someone said, it is a free board there are worst siggies out there than that one.

LovesGreenBay · October 2008

I don't think racist right off the bat either. Bad taste? Yes. Not the same sense of humor as mine? Yes.

Now I am curious... got a link to a post with their siggy?

Summer - just go to second tri - it is towards the bottom and I think the title is something like "who's siggy"

Never mind, I found it: https://community.thenestbaby.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/4314059.aspx for anyone else who is interested.

I lurk over there most the time and have been keeping up on the siggy fiasco. I think that it is horrible and I think it most definitely is/was racist. Even though I did not actually see it when it was in her actual sigyy... I do not think I have ever seen anything worse than that in a siggy.

Summerstarr2 · October 2008

Yeah, I don't agree with the message at all, but its POLITICAL!

Why do people always get so heated over these things? I just shrug off any and all political steam...

MelissaSue81 · October 2008

How can you not assume they are racist? One that isn't racist would not post that in their siggy.. The entire graphic is racist.. its ridiculous.. That chick deserves everything they say about her..

On the other hand though, i never go to 2nd tri cuz those girls are generally so bitchy..

rodiggity79 · October 2008

People who post stuff like in their siggy are just trying to stir up drama...

It just makes her look uneducated.

banbear2 · October 2008

Wow holy drama. One more reason why I don't frequent that board. Last time I was there someone asked a legitimate question but because of the way she typed it (each word started with a capital letter, she said she typed that way for her job) about 6 people jumped all over her. Ugh.

Its not political! If they said something about his views or his plans for the country it would be political.. This is just pure racism, and also ignorance!

I think it shows ignorace and complacency- but I also think equating all republicans to uneducated, bigotted, or heartless people is also ignorant. We vote based on our values and our hopes for the direction of the country- just because I disagree with people, doesnt mean they are ignorant idiots. We really do need to teach our children to respect others beliefs and values- even if they're *gasp* conservative or *gasp* liberal. Oy. I am SO READY for this election to be over.

I completely agree.

PeggyFinklestein · October 2008

It pisses me off that there are plenty of women backing her up. And that she herself has not offered an explanation.

I hate the trimester boards.

gallerygirl · October 2008

I never go there... I can't even stomach lurking because it is just filled with such negativity. I'm happy to stay over here, on TTCAL & PL. I think this is the only part of the bump that is safe from people calling each other vulgarities and flaming one another constantly.

SO glad to be here.

ParisBride06 · October 2008

Whoa! I have to say that I am pretty shocked that people are over there backing her up and defending her siggy as "hilarious". To me, it is poor taste and it is kind of scary to think that there are people out there who actually believe some of this stuff about the candidates on both sides.
