I would just like to tell all the Freepers out there, that I am joining you. This site has been a favorite of mine for about 2 years now. I have never thought to leave an opinion or post anything of my own. I am actually quite tired of seeing the direction of this GREAT nation go straight down the crapper. I have served my country proudly and so have many of my family. I am looking forward to sharing thoughts with many of the good minds I have seen on this site. Thank you for your time.

Hello. Click on a thread, post an opinion, and then everyone will jump all over you. But don’t worry, it’s for your own good!

Out in the Real World, nobody is really listening, so a person can start to think her opinions make sense. Then you get to FR and discover you’re a complete ignoramus. If you can take the shock, it gets better.

Conversely, out in the Real World, thick with 0bama-kissing media and liberal protests, a person can start to wonder whether anyone agrees with one’s own perspective and point of view.

On FR, we find a link to sanity and reason, at least some of the time.

Words of advice

Avoid exciting Viking Kitties
SporkWeasels can be fun
Pancake Bunnies are seen upon occasion
Set your Beeber to Stune

Religion threads can be a high threat environment

Avoid Gratuitous Vanities, and
Avoid self referencing Blogs

There are a few here who will look at your sign-up date and assume your intentions or presume at an agenda - be prepared for it, stand your ground, and you'll do fine.

Welcome to FreeRepublic

Welcome. Never post while angry, and take everything with a grain of salt. There are a lot of great people here. There are schisms, cliques, and other crap, but its mostly a great place to share concern about the decline of our republic.

Does that mean I'm really just a stupid-head?

No, not at all. However, when you share your deep thoughts about tax reform or immigration with your family members, they go, “Uh huh, uh huh,” while waiting for you to shut up and leave. On FR other people who also think about Stuff have other deep thoughts and will point out perceived errors in your reasoning.

Don’t post hugh threads, and don’t take it too series.

And welcome!
