Hussein brought up the subject of abortion and his daughters..saying “I wouldn’t want my daughters punished by and unwanted pregnancy”.
The left is now warming up to discredit a firefighter in New Jersey, who dares to testify about his Supreme Court case..let’s see if he or his kids are off limits.

“Ghetto street trash.”

Fact is, there’s more and more white trash comments on FR. They better clean it up or those FReepathons will take longer and longer.

I'm disappointed the thread was pulled.

I would have liked an opportunity to examine the archives for the most objectionable writers.

Length of membership and previous comments can often distinguish Real Freepers from Leftside provocateurs.

But it was ok to go after the Palin kids.... (didn’t see the thread, but I would have hit abuse on the racial slurs, had I seen them. Those are beneath us...Republicans and Democrats alike.)

"A typical street whore." "A bunch of ghetto thugs." "Ghetto street trash." "Wonder when she will get her first abortion."

Is the author saying that only blacks can be "street whores", "ghetto thugs", "ghetto street trash" and only black women have abortions?

We know who the racist is now, don't we?

Seriesly, do they not get that they’re complicit in such name calling when said name calling is directed toward political enemies - but horrified when it’s about political allies - even though they’re not supposed to even have any political enemies or allies in the “free press”?

Further, do they not get that this was done merely to point that out? Geezus they’re myopic.

And they wonder why they’re almost all going bankrupt????

Whining will have no effect on the press, that is obvious, but I would think that short to the point sentences detailing their responsibility for the degradation of their industry is in order.

Yep. Unfortunately I have been finding myself more and more distant with some of the commenter’s here. I am not racist, I do not want my name to be associated with racism. I want it to be associated with conservatism and the retaking of this country from marxists. We are better than the left and we should act that way.

I guess molestation jokes about a Palin child are fine, though.

And there were several comments made along those lines on the thread in question, but notice the Vancouver Scum didn't bother to quote any of those.

Man, they made the The Getaway into a great movie (the Steve McQueen one) except I thought you were dead?

Canada - stay out of our business in the United States. Remember you idiots were the ones booing our national anthem when we had hockey or baseball games up there. Oh yea and you can have your 11% in Government Motors, hope that works out for you.

The media is to blame. After what happened to the Bush twins and Palin’s kids the gloves are off.

It doesn’t matter, let the world see their trash let us not be like them. We are better than that.

Would the Vancouver Sun be considered or equivalent to being an “Obama-thug” outlet? ^^

What do we know about the low life who originally posted the link that started the whole thing?
And where is that post again which allows us to view deleted threads?

This whole thing stinks to high heaven as a setup, and I need to write a letter to the Vancouver Sun?

Why?
Just because I'll feel better and the losers may even publish the letter.
