LOL. We haven't seen too much common sense around FR, have we?
We have a saying over on the other side. "From Buckhead to this in six months. FR is in freefall."
We have a saying over on the other side.
There are those, like you, who seem to be revelling over this supposed downfall of FR.
Most of them seem to be OVER ON THAT OTHER SIDE. I don't even have to ask where that is.
This issue is not conservative vs. liberal. It is about basic principles, morals, family values, those who would destroy family values, those with no respect for family values. It is about inconvenience, and money. It is about greed and lust.
It is these kind of things, the really and truly difficult decisions in life that reveal the character of a person.
I am so sad to say, many many characters have been unwrapped and disclosed publicly on these threads, as they were on the Elian Gonzalez threads (where the public, and many Freepers CHEERED the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT STORMING IN WITH SWAT TEAMS, TEARGASSING THE PUBLIC, EVEN IF THEY WERE NOT IN THE WAY, AND contrary to their statement that they would not rush the house and take Elian by force, did just that very thing.)
Funny thing, the same ones who approved of the GESTAPO taking ELIAN, REFUSE to allow the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT to intervene to save Terri's life (such as it is, but still a GOD GIVEN LIFE)
The Terri threads, the Elian threads are not the only ones that this controversy has become so heated on, such a public clamor, etc.
If you don't believe this, you haven't been on FR long enough.
FR survived, and I am tired of all these people clamoring for the downfall of FR based on this case.
Most long time Freepers, especially the 'specialists' come here to discuss and learn.
Newer posters come her ,IMHO, because they perceive it as THEIR OWN PERSONAL BLOG. They can say anything, see it in print, and expect everyone to believe and not question it.
That is why I don't like most websites. No interaction. No interaction, no verification, no trust.
Why don't you help Keep FR a place where the fight for the truth goes on, instead of claiming, FR is BRAINDEAD, GO AHEAD AND KILL IT?
