So the response to lies should be falsehoods, the response to stupidity should be idiocy?
So, you want to delete articles from sources that appear daily on FR?
What other sources do you want to delete?
Or do you just want to delete selected articles that don't fit your world view?
And, once deleted, what site should those of us who consider ourselves intelligent enough to discern truth from fiction flock to.
Of course, that would be most FReepers, so you could expect FR to wither and die.
Congratulations, you have killed Free Republic.
Feeling better now?
NONSENSE. There is ZERO documentation in this article. ZERO
This isn’t about blacks (people of African descent). It’s about violent anarchists. AFAIK, no reputable info about his political beliefs or affiliations has been established. ABC and Breitbart goofed.
Then you DISPROVE their accusations! You don’t make up your own to fit our side’s narrative. There is ZERO evidence at this time that this Holmes is an OWS agent. Nothing in the link here identifies him as such beyond an opening accusation. The pictures on other threaDS of “Holmes” being carried off by cops are said to be in Occupy San Diego, though the cops are clearly NYPD. The other vid is posted by a James Willy Holmes while the killer’s name is James Eagan Holmes.Our side has to stop this or else what Ross did yesterday will be completely obscured.

This Marc Chabot needs some documentation for his headline. None is provided in the article.
” I would first look at the possibility that James Holmes, DOB 12/13/1987, was caught up in the OWS movement” This is speculation, which magically turns into fact. Sounds as if this was lifted from a similar article by that ‘detective’ whose name eludes me.
Irresponsible writing.
Yeah, the Fort Hood shooting was ‘not terrorist related’ either, even though Hasan is a radical islamist, he was openly advocating suicide bombers, and he was exchanging e-mails with the now-dead terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki.
So what does a perp have to do to make something terrorist-related, issue a press release stating so?
It should be deleted because there’s no evidence it’s true.
It’s a fundamental question of whether there is an objective truth that exists out there, or whether what is true is what you want to believe, or whether the way to combat lies is to invent your own lies and spread them.
He was just indoctrinated at the Liberal University of Colorado. Maybe, this helps explains his actions.
I am usually a supporter of civility and restraint in circumstances like this, but the left has shown itself to be entirely unrestrained and determined to do nothing but defeat our nation without shame and without any regard to fairness. Therefore, I see this as war and as such, I am in favor of posts like this.
Yes.
OWS posted the information themselves, on their website.
Here is a link showing the OWS website information before they scrubbed it.
Occupy Wall Street Names Colorado Massacre Shooter James Holmes as Occupy Black Bloc Member
Oh this text is taken entirely from taken from a web page that went up early yesterday from some self-proclaimed “private investigator” in Florida with a goofy website(whose main business is apparently following cheating spouses)
On the page he had a picture of someone in a gas mask (unclear who they were or what they were doing), some OWS protesters, and an OWS guy wearing black and a black motorcycle helmet and breaking a window.
The basic “argument” seemed to be that because Holmes was wearning black and had something on his head, that it merited investigation whether he was in OWS.
I think there were some exceptionally stupid people who thought the pictures actually showed Holmes, which they do not.
That's evidence of equal validity.
Do you not understand how internet forum postings work?

I had no idea (and neither did she, apparently) that the threats might have stemmed from the theme of the movie, which by accounts is anti-anarchist & pro capitalist.
Don't know whether this is linked to the shootings but it seems likely IMO.
You miss the point. The one-way war of disinformation needs to become a two-way war. Merely playing defense does not cut it. Yesterday a facebook “friend” posted a link purporting to show that the rate of “gun violence” was highest in red states. In the very small print, however, was the author’s definition of “gun violence”. It included all injuries from not only criminal acts, but self-defense and mere accidents as well. The “friend” who posted it simply ignored my objection to the obvious misleading nature of the link, and continued to talk about the “gun violence” in those red states. This is how they operate, and guess what, it works.
This couldn’t be true. Has Brian Ross reported it yet? If not, it can’t be true.
