CA Parental Control Software Blocks FR as HATE site but allows DU site to go through
Computer Associates Security Center | 02/26/2010

Posted on 02/26/2010 4:03:48 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Folks and Friends at Free Republic

I just wanted to inform you that one of the computers I have at home has COMPUTER ASSOCIATES' SECURITY CENTER installed on it as part of the package I have with my recent Internet and cable service provider -- CABLEVISION.

This is the CA SECURITY CENTER VERSION 4.0.0.205

Now, everytime I try to access FR on this computer, it blocks me with the following reason :

URL: http://www.freerepublic.com/perl/go-button For the following reason: based on the category Category: Hate

I have to override it by entering an administrative password to temporarily allow the FR site to go through my browser.

Out of curiosity, I tried going to the DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND site and lo and behold, the CA Parental Control software ALLOWED the site with no problems.

Just wanted you people to be aware of this double standard.

"Must be some sort of innate jungle tribal instinct just too difficult for their race to overcome."

Now that I know you're a racist I have nothing more to say to you.

“Figures, you jump in the middle of a conversation and have no clue what’s going on.”

Kinda like you jumped into my conversation with chris and thought that you knew what was going on?

No, I wasn’t on that thread. I didn’t know about that thread until tonight, when I googled to find threads where you probably saw the foul language you claim not to have seen. But it’s been posted directly to you, because of your racists rants. Now I’m wondering how many times you’ve used language like that yourself on FR. I just posted a link to a post where you used the “N” word. Can you explain that? What is the truth?

Wow. Yes I would consider that foul language. Should have researched his posting history earlier and saved myself alot of time. I don’t defend my honor against liberals.

Very interesting that his most oft used accusation is about being here from DU to defame FR. Looks like he’s doing a very good job of that.

Wow it must be one of those nights. Is everybody just in a foul mood? I’ve seen words used that aren’t allowed & the mods take them away. I have put numbers in words that you aren’t supposed to use. I’ve done & admit it when the posters have gotten under my skin & I prolly will do it again. I never claim to be perfect lol.

whatisthe truth said “There are some terms more acceptable than others.”

metmom said “Which is irrelevant as the terms are still profanity, whether socially acceptable or not.”

Obviously, Whatisthetruth thinks that n***** is an acceptable term.

I never implied that FR was a hate site. I conjured up a few examples to prove you wrong when you said there is no profanity on FR

You said that I called you a liar and a troll, which I did not, show me those words. Well likewise I see your posts as implying things about FR that I don't see as true, true you're not saying it in so many words, but by the same token you attribute my implications as words, why can't I do likewise with you? Isn't that kinda like a double standard?

You're trying to obfuscate what I say but I see through you because that's how truth works. I never said you won't find profanity on FR, my argument is you don't find PLENTY of it like you want to suggest. If it's deleted, then how am I to see it? And if it's not there to be seen then how can you say accurately there's plenty of it on FR?

Am I supposed to take you at your word just because you claim to be Christian that there happened to be plenty more profanity-laced posts just because you can supply a few examples out of millions? There's a lot of twisting going on here but before you try to remove the alleged beam in my eye, you might want to look at the huge one that currently seems to be lodged in your own.

You've demonstrated a propensity of truth twisting, disrupting, projecting and outright lying.

Suit yourself, military service alone does not make one honorable. So if you're honorable I challenge YOU to back up your accusations against me.

You are a liar and a racist. I am done defending myself against you.

You continue to try to deflect and distract, well fine until you answer the questions I asked you to back up your smears against FR, I won't be distracted.

Very well, whatistruth. You seem to feel very strongly about this so there's only one thing left to do. You should perform an exhaustive screening of every post on every thread on FR and report back the number of profanities vs the total number of posts. Then divide the smaller number by the larger so we have the percentage.

Since this will take quite some time, so we'll be denied your unique contributions. I speak for all of us that we're ready to make this sacrifice.

I am neither a liar or a racist, very ‘christian’ of you to call me names, I’ll be sure to look at your moniker with a grain of salt from now on.

You are like a small child who, having crapped his pants, points at others in the room and accuses them of "making a stinky."

No GB, you accused me of all manner of things that I am and that I’m not, now I challenge you to either back them all up or shut up and go to bed!
