Actually, it sounds like an amazing offer. Overall, I think the Admin mods do an amazing job (they never pulled one of my posts and I been plenty combative)! To be honest, I don't think he/she should not have to explain themselves. The people complaining have been lowering the discourse and in general need to listen to the other side and present their arguments better (both sides).
I can also see why they need to tread lightly, FreeRepublic does not need a racist label. I just hope they know what they are getting themselves into by responding.
It will not help Jim Robs case against the city of Fresno if the defense can point out the racist posts on this fine Forum...
