Amen. I’ve been preaching that for years. The schools are fools when it comes to the internet/computers. It is undermining, not complimenting, education, at the present.
Much more structure and control is needed to actually make the internet/computers a constructive educational tool.
And, most parents have no clue what their kids are doing online or via text messaging (on cell phones).
I audit our kid’s cell phones nightly and record all their keystrokes via recording software.
I read the stuff their friends write on their pages, bulletin boards, etc. and GUARANTEE their parents have no clue what is going on.
What a bizarre thread to post such a statement on, MeekoFan. Most noobs are given the suggestion to lay low and get the lay of the land when they sign on here at FR. So taking offense at the warning is unwarranted. Your "newness" is central to anything you post here until your posting history speaks for itself.
I agree. I have been pondering that. There is much more to this including “plausible deniability”. A good search method is to take post phrases that are suspicious and google them. We have one poster here who is new and claims to be a veteran. His “talking points” link back to the HufPost.
the guy sounds a little disturbed at the very least and that is putting it mildly

Understatement of the year! Liberalism is a disease. In my opinion this Parry needs to get a life, really. As far as I know the 1st Amendment it alive and well...........for now. Their definition of free speech become hate speech when it suits them and it’s ok for them to say anything they want to say. As long as no threats are made, nothing illegal is said, who cares? They want to silence others, they can’t and I refuse to ever be silenced by them no matter how much they try. If it comes to that, I would move out of this country. People like Parry are dangerous. He doesn’t poke fun or make a sarcastic remark, he is filled with hate for anyone that isn’t like him. I wonder why he’s so involved in our politics and how he votes here when he is a Canadian and only lived in the states for 5 years of his entire life.
I was married before the hippies arrived!
Words still can’t hurt anyone unless they are a bunch of pussies that deal in feelings!
I don’t have feelings, I live in the real world.
Not surprised.
I apologize, I wasn’t aware of that suggestion.
A leopard can’t hide it’s spots, eh?
They just can’t help themselves. There is no hiding on the internet. That is why it would be nice to have the IP of all those newbies who get banned. A conspiracy like this would be very easy to map.
nail on head
I can not understand for the life of me how the far left think.
They do not seem to be on this planet at times,
For instance the firemen.
Now I have always thought that a person should get a job based on merit and that is what I tell my kids.
Now.
I have to tell my kids that they might never get a certain position in college etc because they are more whiter than others.
The left think that someone based on color should get a job , why????????????????
Surely you want someone to get a job based on merit because in the firemen case you want someone who can do the job.
I have yet heard the left make a decent argument for affirmative action and yet they say those white firemen should not get the job even though they passed the test.
MLK wanted a nation of color blindness and maybe that is why he was a republican

It seems that he's just a stringer.
Super-quick responses have always been my dead give-away.
If your post had been a somewhat innocuous one, you would have been welcomed to FR and given the suggestion. From my experience, most new posters here keep their posts on the mild side or they are considered suspect ~ as you now find yourself. If you are a true conservative, you’ll take friendly advice in the way it’s intended.
I might have said this before to you but great profile page.
“...their parents have no clue what is going on.”
It’s epidemic, I’m tellin ya. It boggles the mind.
Growing up we had a small collection of PlayBoy/Hustler type mags that we found in the trash and stashed in the woods—that was it. Nowadays, kids are exposed to complete debauchery, and an endless supply at that.
Not to mention the predators and assorted sickos that are actively seeking ‘companionship’ with YOUR kids.
The real cost is the innocence, I think. I’m glad I didn’t know women as a Gynecologist knows women. The mystery and the discovery was one of the highlights of my life, really.
NetNanny works well for kids that are NOT tech saavy. If the situation is more severe, or you kid is tech saavy then Spector Pro should do the job. (39.99 and 99.99 respectively)
But you probably don’t need any of these if you move the family computer to the living room where everyone can see the screen.
This is not 1982 with the Commordore 64, folks—the net is a dangerous place for kids.
“SeattleBruce, you are most certainly Chris Parry.”

I am about as conservative as you can be. LOL! It amazes me that you can’t/won’t answer one simple question - despite the fact that I’m respecting and supporting the main thrust of your research.
Here’s my activity in the past 9 months:
You’ve posted a total of 19 threads and 1,245 replies.
I’ve also donated to FreeRepublic on numerous occasions and you can ask Jim Robinson about that. Most importantly, you don’t know what on God’s green earth you’re talking about when you say this about me. And oh, you may want to look at my last response [to Katiekins1], as I defend you...geez!
And oh Mr. Know it all - I was standing in front of the Capitol building in Olympia, waving an American flag on July 4th, and also at the Capitol Lake rally on June 27th.
****************
“You keep defending Chris Parry and asking the same question that others keep asking. Your tone and questions are clearly meant to defend him.”
++++++++
What? Why don’t you just answer this question. If I and others are asking it, why not just answer. Just tell us that that was opinion, or prove it with a post. That’s all. I support the main thrust of your support. I in no way defend Chris Parry - he’s moronic.
I think he just does the online edition.
this is all scary
Did you hear about those dummies who did twitter(what ever it is called) and said they were going away on vacation and then got broken into to.
I for the life of me do not understand as to why those poeple feel the need to tell strangers that they like to eat certain things, go certain places or even go on vacation.
WHY?????????????/
The radical left wing ARE the “journalists” and so-called “mainstream” media... Good sleuthing! Hmmm, aren’t there “Hate Crime” laws in Canada? For if this is accurate, Chris Parry is certainly a hater.
