Why Is Free Republic Allowing Liberal Trolls To Stay?

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.

You seem to be arguing both sides of the purge issue. You got me confused.

I was called a disgusting pig for breastfeeding.

And if we'd have been able to shut down McCain/Rudy/Willard and ended up with either Hunter or Thompson...

How do you think this last election would have gone?

[jveritas]

Exactly.

:) conservatives are so much fun!

MurryMom was the one libtard I could think of. She finally got zapped?

[calex59]

I’ve offered to buy her a steak on many occasion, I guess I am a lib.. :->

Yes, I have too but I always stipulate that she has to come to my house to eat it. Maybe that's what put her off, huh?

[AxelPaulsenJr]

How so?

Frankly I don't have a problem with them if they maintain proper etiquette. There are true conservatives on FR who bother me more.

[presently no screen name]

most threads end up with half or less of the volume of posts if only conservatives were allowed to post?

So it's quantity and not quality that this conservative site is after?

I dare say many true conservatives do not post because they do not want to spend their time arguing w/trolls. If we want lies, we'd watch TV for propaganda or read a rag or two. This is an example of leaving the borders open - it has a damaging effect.

I’ve been accused of being a terrorist sympathizer on this forum because I didn’t/don’t support McCain.

I must bow my head in respect for someone to have the talent to do that WHILE posting on FR.

[Gator113]

I know, that’s why I continue hang out here.

Realistically, there is only one thing in life that’s perfect, and that just happens to be...... my own opinion.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

Considering that both Thompson and Hunter barely polled out of the bottom. Most likely would be no different result.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

Let me couch that. Fred had a far better chance than did Duncan, however there just didn’t seem to be in fire in Thompson’s belly for the campaign.

They might actually learn a thing or two.

This "purge" mentality reminds me of an old Soviet-era joke:

Three men in a Siberian labor camp manage to find a moment to strike up a conversation.
"I was sentenced to ten years at hard labor because I spoke against Kropotkov."
"I was sentenced to fifteen years at hard labor because I spoke in favor of Kropotkov."
"I was sentenced to TWENTY years at hard labor because I *AM* Kropotkov."

[Scotswife]

LOL!

Not the case - although that would have made the story more interesting.

Nope - apparently - just the act of breastfeeding made me a piggy.

Do you want us to un-ban him and then re-ban him to make you happy?

I dare you.
