The two posts have video clips maliciously edited to show misogynistic behavior. I can’t believe anyone would deny it. The whole point of Trumpists making those clips is to accuse Biden of misogynistic behavior.

I don’t know if **Omar Little** has a habit of carrying water for Trumpists, but definitely is in those posts. Whether or not you dislike Trump, repeating his lies is helping him and his ilk.

Posting them was off-topic and a hijack. I do wish you hadn’t engaged in the hijack, but wow are the moderators slow to respond. Better to report the posts and pit.

**Omar Little** on _The Wire_ was an entertaining badass. Our version is a fucking weenie. Biden’s ‘handsy’ issue seems quaint with a serial rapist in the White House.

**Omar Little** is hereby convicted of being too much of an ass-goblin to use that handle. Sentence: Name will immediately be changed to Howdy Doody.

Some people might be uncomfortable that you would intentionally ignore the long history of Bidens misogynistic behavior. Just because he is running against an equally or worse misogynist is no excuse.

You must have missed the many, many times on this board in which I’ve strongly criticized Biden for inappropriate touching.

That is the issue. Reposting maliciously edited videos in an unrelated thread is not addressing it.

You don’t even understand your own screen name? Next time, choose your screen name yourself, don’t let your podrooga choose it for you.

I am not satisfied that @Bacon_Cheeseburger is anything other than a troll at this point. If he wanted to make atheists look bad by dragging out a tired old argument, for instance…

He does. Big time. Consistently. For years now. Not sure of the motives, though. Getting a rise out of people while looking “smart” and well-informed is a possibility.

And then there’s this [Jaq’off Troll](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/bidens-choice-for-vice-presidential-candidate/851505/666).

Just say what you want to say, jerkoff.

I’m pretty certain he’s a sock for a poster who was banned a day or two before he joined.

If you posted this before he got banned for socking, good call.
