Have you ever regretted posting something at DU?
Advertisements [?]
I can think of a couple of times in my case. Around late December, a topic that hit home with me came up and I started up a very angry post of my own. I still think I made some valid points, but I went about it the wrong way. I was dropping the f-bomb and basically losing control of my emotions. I had a right to be angry, but I should have just made my point without going off the deepend. I was the most hated man on DU for one night.

The other time was when I pasted what I had felt was a disappointing response that I had gotten from one of my Senators. I felt passionate about the issue, and wanted to see how others who agreed with me on the issue felt. After seeing some of the responses, along with some other posts, I felt pretty bad about it. This is one of my favorite politicians, and even though I strongly disagreed with her on that issue, I regret posting the letter in the negative way that I did.
