Considering “Fair” Opinion also started a thread which stated that Thompson’s church had mormon roots, which was completely untrue, and then REFUSED to retract it, causing it to be deleted, I don’t trust him a bit.

I was one of the initial refuters of that claim, pointing out the difference between the Church of Christ and the link being cited by FO. But in this case, she listed her source and then did retract immedaitely after the source's claim was refuted. I can understand if many got frustrated with her refusing to back away from things that were already shot down, but that doesn't seem to be what happened here.

If a person becomes disruptive, I can understand the need to restrict that disruption, but other things equal, I prefer a forum where we can afford to face criticisms and have no fear of pointing out problems like a possible Clinton donation. Does that mean I don't want to participate in FR, though? Nope...I'm here, and recognize the editorial discretion of the site operators! :-)

You don’t need to explain yourself. JimRob has always been more than patient and fair. I used to blast away at the Bushbots and establishment Republicans and never heard a discouraging word. I’ve been here a long time, even since before my registry date, which is actually a re-registration.

I’ve always thought of FO as a noxious liberal. There are plenty others of those that remain around here. I’ve been fighting with them for years. But they always kept the material they post and their opinions separate.

Don’t get a thin skin and don’t act like a smarmy liberal. You have to work pretty hard to get zotted.
