Why not stay and struggle for civility AND freedom??? FR has played a very good role in the conservative movement- including Buckhead's nailing CBS, exposing John Kerry as a silly liberal wacko, and many other scoops here.
Defending freedom from tyranny is still worth the struggle.

Maybe I have been living under a rock lately, and I admit I haven't been paying a whole lot of attention, but did someone say we had people making terroristic threats on FR?
I have been in some of the Terri threads, and my blood is fired up. I have had family members in similar situations, and have some very deep feelings on this. However, I don't remember seeing someone saying "Let Iran nuke us for our sins." Then again, I am usually hanging out in the religion forum.
As for the neo nazi's, well didn't someone (Jim himself I think) start a thread a while back about how some of the groups had wanted to infiltrate FR? Looks like they tried. They are also getting ferreted out.
I admit it, I am not proud of how the nation handled the Terri S. case. We failed. I am also not to proud how some on FR have been advocating violence. That IS NOT what would have saved Terri. All it would have done, and all that many of these posts have done, is make us moral conservatives look like the bad guys.
Say a prayer. Have an iced tea. Go tear down a barn (always worked for me). We lost one, a painful one. Don't start thinking it is time to burn the place down.
