Powerful, moving OP. Rarely have I seen a Pit thread that was so able to illuminate the specific grievance and swell the rage of even the most casual reader – not to mention it was written with such flair, too!

10/10, sir. A Pit thread without equal.

Social Security Administration. I assume it’s something to do with the law firm representing someone applying for disability.

I have had many similar experiences to the OP.

My church used to violate my First Amendment rights all the time–their sermons clearly ‘established’ a religion. Plus, they wouldn’t let me distribute pamphlets on their property.

I can’t tell you how awful it is that the Dudeling’s daycare center constantly violates my Second Amendment rights–not only do they refuse to sell me a gun, they won’t let me take the guns I own inside.

When I was growing up, I had this older cousin I didn’t like. He’d stay over from time to time when his parents were in town. When he joined the military, I thought I had it made. But noooo… my parents _still_ made him stay with us even though it violated my Third Amendment rights.

… can anyone continue this? I’ve been aggrieved enough.

Last few threads started here really haven’t been worth it…

Don’t you have a Facebook page? Or friends you can complain to?

Isn’t there something in the rules about starting “board wars” by slamming other message boards? Does that apply in the Pit?

There used to be, but it fell to a First Amendment challenge.

Maybe we should rebel in our freedoms instead, it sounds a lot more rebellious. Plus the jackets are cool.

Contrasted with this board, where the moderators let you say anything you want and nobody ever gets banned.
