Today I did democrats and Supporters of Rev. Shapton a favor

Over the last few weeks, Rev. Sharpton's facebook page has been swarming with conservatives that have been a disruption. They call liberals like us TURD'S, they spam report our page and they have personally made my facebook page go on TOS for 7 days.

They do not liked to be called out over their BS, they don't like it when you expose their lies to the visitors, they don't like it when you mention them by name in a post on your page. I had had one particularly nasty troll spam report everything I said that no where near violates TOS of facebook.

Today I had the final straw. I called the Rev's corporate office and spoke to the administrator of his facebook page and gave him a list of about 13 names of the page most disruptive users. He assured me that by the end of the day, everyone of them should be gone and banned from the sight. He thanked me for helping him to maintain control over the page and told me that if any more trouble makers show up, just send over an e-mail and he will start purging the Rev's page.

I feel really good about what I did over there. People have had their personal pages disabled, reported and spam reported because the trolls don't want us to have a voice. It feels good knowing that in short order peace is going to be brought to the Rev's page.

Years ago as a gay activist I thought giving out positive
energy was better for me and the cause.

they have ironically accused me and those close to me who combat them of being racist and then when we call them out on it, they deflect and evade. I do believe they are paid to disrupt his page and I told that to the admin
