Some freepers seem to think so.
>>Some freepers seem to think so.
Thats a good observation,
But I would hardly consider them true freepers regardless of their sign-up dates after they resorted to freepmailing dozens of terri-haters, forming a club and hiding out in their own repugnant anti-christian WPPFF threads for the purpose of bashing, trashing, and egging on the most left-leaning and DU types; encouraging anyone and everyone who was willing to slime Terri-supporters on their behalf. One of their favorite phrases was [and this is paraphrased] ~go out and attack... but don't lead them back here~.
Their cowardly leaders would as a last resort, when they were tired of a thread or losing an argument, even try to shutdown debate by quoting obscure FR rules as if they were a moderator, but then do that only selectively, ONLY against those they disagreed with, and they NEVER corrected their own buddies.
They collectively even broke FR rules themselves in their own backrooms, frequently laughing and joking about successful flames, making up drinking games for successful baiting responses, etc.
The recent FR poll that asked "Was it wrong to kill Terri Schiavo?"
ladyjane, a considerable percentage of people on FreeRepublic thought so.
