92. "Considering she's on a timeout because a bunch of alerters and jury members were offended

Fri Sep 11, 2015, 10:22 AM

Sep 2015

by her posts, I think it is more likely than not that the letter did come from a disturbed DUer, and probably a Bernie supporter, based on the content of the letter."

Exactly, pnwmom.. those trying to blame it on CC dwellers are in denial of the reality of what's going on . Bravenak has had this whole experience and she thinks it's like this.

I trust her to know what's going on.

Thank you, Good points!
