A perfect example of what you are talking about came today on a thread about the earthquake/tidal wave, in which one poster expressed satisfaction that hundreds of thousands of Muslims were killed (based on a Drudge Report story).

But how will we know how to act while you're gone?Not to worry, I've appointed myself FR Manner Queen. The rules are as follows:
1. If you must be nice, do it in the Smokey Back Room. It won't get you anywhere but it will provide me with immense enjoyment while watching.
2. All other areas, especially Religion (where in theory you should be the nicest but in reality you get to be the nastiest) are free-for-alls.

"Referring to Democrats as 'Rats' or some variant thereof may be somewhat amusing, but seeing the reference in nearly every other post really gets annoying at times."Ya know what really "annoys" me?
Sanctimonious vanities from super-sensitive wusses that waste bandwidth.
Do yourself a favor -- put on your feety-PJs, grab your cat and favorite William Buckley tome, then climb under your bed.
This place is MUCH to scary for you.

Completely off topic, but since we're all wasting time here anyway, did you happen to see on the news that the baby in that picture from yesterday was alive? It had floated on a mattress for 18 hours -- all by itself.

When I think an individual poster is being inappropriate, I've found it much more effective to confront the specific individual at the time and place where I see it happening. Posting a vanity to chastise an entire forum for the perceived incivility of a few is destined to provoke flames, ridicule and zot bait.

WHAT? Who said that? I read that thread and the poster commented on the fact that Muslim insurgents in Banda Aceh may have been killed, thereby hopefully cleaning up the civil war issues that part of Sumatra had been experiencing. Before you quote another FReeper, try excerpting the exact post you had a problem with.

Thank you! I thought it sounded more
civil than my first reaction, which was:
How's my posting?
Call 1-800-STFU

While there's always been an element here that refuses to reason and does little more than insult Democrats and RINOs, it seems that this mentality has taken over a large portion of our membership.And why should we not be critical of rats and rinorats may I ask?
RINOS are a dangerous as any democRat and I only have scorn for those here that have the gall to defend these POS like Specter and Bush's policy of open borders. THAT is what makes me sick. Have a nice day.

Please excuse my earlier (civil) reply to you. You are unworthy of civility. I posted that before others here pointed me to your home page.
You REALLY are full of BS aren't you?

Is "presstitutes" too overused? I love it. Just trying to get approval to keep using it.

I've encountered more shrill, radical nonsense in the past couple of days than I had in the months before my absence. You haven't been around here nearly long enough to see how nasty things can really get.
