Why Is Free Republic Allowing Liberal Trolls To Stay?
May 12 2009 | jveritas

Posted on 05/12/2009 12:07:37 PM PDT by jveritas

There are some really annoying liberal trolls on Free Republic who have survived for months and years without being banned. Why is Free Republic allowing them to stay? We have enough liberalism and left wing lunacy on 90% of the media and we do not need this crap on this forum.

It is not difficult to spot these trolls. A quick review of their posting history will prove without any shadow of doubt that they are liberal trolls. Some of them try to mask it but they cannot fool the vast majority of us.

There are plenty of left wing forums which will welcome them that if they are not already registered and active members there.

It is time to get rid of them.

Hit the abuse bottom on them and hit it often.

I was once told I had taken a position against the Lord Jesus Christ because I expressed doubt about the accusations against Kobe Bryant in his rape case.

I've been accused of being a liberal because I'm not sufficiently upset about Family Guy.

I got you beat. I was not only accused of being a liberal, I was accused of having "French ancestry" because I prefer to drive fuel efficient compact cars as opposed to large gas guzzlers.

jveritas to many on FR if you dissent from them in ANY way you are a troll or a RINO.

I myself have often been very critical of several prominent conservatives (usually based on their overblown egos). That however doesn’t mean that if I criticize say, Alan Keyes, that I’m a supporter of our socialist president.

God sake man if we don’t have any dissent the site would get pretty dull pretty fast.

I think Jim lets some of us stick around only for the humor value. You. I mean you guys, not "us." All of you...

Dang it.

There may be a tiny little bit of a troll in some of us. Once I dared offer support for the now Secretary of State, before she attained that position. I said she at least had cared for and guided her daughter. I also said the daughter was attractive in her own way.

Bit of troll moment, I suppose. I do politely disagree with your ire about trolls. I notice the gad flies on the birth issue. I just wait until the real truth comes out and the gad flies will be swatted.

Cordially.

Would it not be "liberal-like" or fascist or communist to try to shut down the opposition.

Yeah, Ok, they may not belong here, but, wouldn't most threads end up with half or less of the volume of posts if only conservatives were allowed to post?

hitting bottoms should not be encouraged on this forum.

At least one you listed says “this account has been banned or suspended” when looking them up. I bet the others are just kept around as toys.

We’ve got our own share of kooks, no doubt.
