It is hard, very hard. I know many here are upset that the Pres. hasn't gotten in the mud with the Dem fingerpointing game. I'd love to see him hit back, but I know that what he's doing now is the right thing.
Anyway.. no matter how "provoked", there is simply no excuse for racism. I really wish people would stop it with their cute little jibes and remarks, and the ghetto speak. I never saw these sort of comments when I used to lurk (pre-Katrina). These sentiments do not represent or reflect the party of Ronald Reagan, in my opinion. They do it great discredit.
I can only imagine how our good black Freepers feel when the read some of this bilge.
I agree.

Two of the most prominent, rdb3, and mhking, left. I am sorry for that, and trying to show them that many on this forum, do want them here.
The bigots are a dying breed... literally. Another generation, there won't be too many left.
The vast majority of Freepers are not bigots. Some of crafting the offending posts are doing it to one-up another in the ever-present joke game on Internet forums. Disgusting and immature as it is, it makes them feel superior not to the blacks, but to other Freepers.
Those that are truly vile racists are beneath our contempt and unworthy of a response. They will be facing St. Peter just as they judge others will be facing him and found wanting.
