- A large chunk of FReepers voted in polls here that they supported the governor calling out the Guard.
- A large chunk supported the use of children as political props, and getting them arrested and placed into danger.
- Many FReepers began PRAISING Jesse Jackson, and some even shilled for donations to him.
- Many FReepers posted nonstop Nazi imagery. Do they really think that everyone "gets" what they are trying to say, rather than just assuming that they are neo-Nazis themselves?
- Many FReepers are calling for solid Republicans to be thrown out of office "for not doing ENOUGH".
There are widespread calls for people to violate the law.
- Death threats to public officials has been tolerated.
What am I to think?
It's not just you -- I've been noticing the same things, mind you if I even dare suggest that people step back from the precipice and cool off a bit, I get bombarded with Nazi images, and with being called names.
And you know what? When the MSM and the DUmmies point at us as examples of unhinged right-wing extremist fringe folks, they'll point to posts like those to bolster their arguement. And furthermore, we won't have a damn thing we can say about it. Because they'll be right.
Just damn.
Well said.
The fringers, much like those on the Left, have done their level best to marginalize the entire conservative movement. It's going to be a long time before we live this fiasco down.
Worth repeating.
Bump to that Mike!
Count me in also, guys. What I've learned about FreeRepublic these past few weeks has been most disappointing.
