This is not DU!
Discuss the issues all you wish, BUT DO NOT MAKE IT PERSONAL!
Remember to use common courtesy when posting to FR. Leave off the insults and flames, name calling, etc.
We are conservatives. Be respectful to your debate adversary (fellow FReeper). For example, do not accuse them of being a “Putinista”, “commrade”, “murderer”, “baby-killer”, etc, just because he may have a difference of opinion whether or not the US government should be involved in a controversial foreign war where we were not attacked.
Likewise, things in the presidential primary are getting over-heated. We want to be sure we come out of this with a Republican president, house and senate. The only way we can accomplish that is to unify the Republican Party. We can’t destroy our own candidates. Whoever it is will need to pull us ALL together. Keep the ultimate goal in sight - Freedom! We are not here to fight each other. We are here as allies to fight for God, family, country, and FREEDOM! As William Wallace said in Brave Heart, “Unite the clans!”.
Your personal favorite may be Ron DeSantis, mine happens to be President Trump. But if DeSantis receives the nomination, I’ll support him, as I hope most other FReepers will.
Incidentally, we are getting way too much profanity. This is NOT DU, this is NOT CNN - (in deep voice) this IS FR!
Finally, if someone says STOP, then STOP! If someone asks you to take them off your ping list, then take them off! If someone asks you to stop posting to them, the adult and polite thing to do is to accommodate them.
Thank you all very much, and God bless you.
To be fair, Gator, the thread was specifically about personal attacks…of members.
In this case, said poster did not attack anyone on the forum. Though obscene hostile cussing should also be avoided.
I think we’re still allowed to attack candidates not on this forum. ;-)
I didn’t see anything in post #5 that violated any FR posting rule.
What are you trying to do?
Threaten people about talking about desantis?
Are you going around threatening, then reporting for abuse, anyone that talks about bad things about desantis now, in order to censor or ban people and stop people from knowing bad things about desantis?
When did you assume control of Free Republic? You are getting ahead of your skis.
When DeSantis disrespects Trump by calling him an old geezer, so to speak, and has to lie about his age to carry it through, then I also can respond in kind.
