That one’s not really a dodge. He stated what he felt was appropriate, and those who agreed with him came here to say, we understand this is a conservative site first. Others came and said, “We don’t agree that you should run a site with those as the core values. We haven’t compromised anything by backing this guy.”

And he said, “Yes you have, because this is what he has stood for.”

And they yelled at him, and he warned them, and then banned those who wouldn’t take no for an answer. And some asked to have their accounts closed, and some just left.

And others, having dealt with bad times from some who got banned for rude behavior, were happy.

He started it. And it was a bait thread, if you call a declaration of what FR is about and what type of candidate is conservative by the owner of the site a baiting, a lightning rod thread.

If there is this type of division in feeling, it might explain why so many came here to get hit on the lightning rod.

What exactly is the problem with baiting? Jim wanted to find out who the liberals were and give them the opportunity to either become conservative or leave, he didn’t force these liberals to out themselves.
