From FR homepage:
Over 400,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic since inception in 1996 and our forum is read daily by over one hundred thousand freedom loving citizens and patriots from all around the country, and all around the world. We're currently delivering over twenty million pageviews per month to over one million monthly visitors. Oh, we're big stuff all right:
O my gosh, what a loon!
I have a good friend I almost lost due to this. He was/is a huge Cruz fan and I supported Trump. I did my best to be understanding of his support for Cruz but he couldn't understand my support for Trump. In the end Trump won of course and he lightened up; especially as time went on and he could finally see what I did in Trump.
BTW, I didn't dislike Cruz (didn't trust him though), I just liked Trump more right from the beginning.
It was a decidedly different forum then especially over immigration reform
My side won
Interesting, I wouldn't have guessed that's what tipped them.
What used to be amusing was to post Kaczynski's manifesto side by side with Al Gore's environmental ravings and have everyone try to guess which was which.
Did you know that your logon, spelled backwards, is “nogras”?
Yes there was plenty of that.
There was also people getting banned because they didn’t insult Cruz or buy into nonsense like Cruz’s dad killed JFK.
And a sudden infiltration of people pretending to be white nationalists as false flags or the real deal. It was an unpleasant period to be. Jewish freeper.

Do not have any liquids in your mouth before reading them.

It was over amnesty
You can google it
The tone over some issues was decidedly different then
Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. I agree, much of it might have been false flags to try to make conservatives look bad during an election season; but it's still very unpleasant. Glad you hung in there.
Thanks, Grampa Dave! You da man with the zot list!
Wow, talk about venom! It must suck to be her. I'm just assuming her significant other is a blind and deaf kitty cat.
My sentiments exactly. The women friends I lost over the election were losers whom someone had cheated on in the past, and they just couldn't get past it, Bill Clinton or no Bill Clinton.
Beyond that, I just didn't thik Cruz was ready enough for the problems we are now facing. Trump can be crude, but he has the skills we need right now. No one else could have stood up to the beating all Republicans get, and he's of course getting an extra truckload every day. it will never stop, either. God bless him.
Well ah shore am grateful JimRob lets me play here. Im naughty and opinionated and he hasnt banned me yet. <3 <3 <3
But if I did have another account it would be called BuckNaked and Id pretend to be a conservative guy closeted working in the hard core porn film industry.
Im tripolar so I should be entitled to three accounts.
That’s the difference between “may” and “can.” You’re supposed to stay banned, but it remains technically possible to re-register.
Interesting comments, and she was right about the Heidi thread.
Yahoo as well.
Yes, it seemed that anyone who was a Cruzer wound up getting banned.
Mine uses my initials.
TOR browser???
There is even a Facebook group called “Banned Conservatives of Free Republic.”
