will you guys not be condescending *******s when you post on the walls of these politicians?
this guy's post is still on nancy pelosi's front page and there's an abundance of them throughout the timeline:
"Please support HR 2366 and pretend like this is America and we're actually FREE. Lottery tickets = pure chance, yes thats fine.. Poker = Game of skill, um no thats not ok.. DOES NOT COMPUTE"
a request to a few 2+2ers: don't write in a condescending tone to the fkn senate minority leader. state our case in a polite and reasonable manner.

I have a personal policy of not "liking" disrespectful posts. The one you cite, I didn't have any issues with. I'm actually one of the people who added a comment under it. Sometimes when those of us who have been working this for a long time get fatigued, we get a little flip. Still, that's not a good excuse. His post, while not ideal, didn't cross the line for me to the point of disrespect. However, I do understand your concern and caution. Thank you for making the point.
