[Noisebridge-discuss] I AM ON STRIKE?!?

[Hannah Grimm]

Hey, just a side note here.  I get that this is probably maybe satirical?
 But it's still totally not okay to call what happens on the mailing list
when people disagree with eachother "assault."

Especially not when assault is an actual, real problem that happens at NB.

Not cool, Mike.
