And I agreed with you that you don’t see what the problem is.
That is why you are being asked by me and others to do a little research on Medea Benjamin, and not base your opinion of her on what you have seen of her interactions with Bill O’Reilly on his show, where he tries to be “neutral” - and in so doing, does not bring forth her true nature and agenda.
One of the major values of Free Republic is education on issues because so many posters have truly important information to share on specific topics.
When a seasoned member of FR asks a new member to get a bit more informed, it is not “hatred.” It is a courtesy to a newbie - or a pushback to a disruptor.
New members are welcome, unless they come with a big chip on their shoulder.

I was called a noob, douchebag, mocked over a typo, mocked for not being on FR for long, accused of not knowing history (like they know me), and accused of being a troll. Why? Because I don’t see what the deal is about O’Reilly taking this picture. I never heard of any terrorist connection. From the post, it seemed as if the poster was calling Code Pink a terrorist group just because they were anti-war. Someone could have just gave me a link about the connections. They didn’t have to verbally assault me like that.
