Banning people is a bad idea. Abuse of power really.

“Banning people is a bad idea.”

Depends on the infraction I would imagine. Probably more (imo) deserve a suspension rather than outright banning but then it isn’t my website. However if Jim tells you, “Mittens are not welcome here” then you know the score up front.

“Abuse of power really.”

Whose power? This is Jims’ house. He can do with it as he sees fit. If someone were to enter your home and make an ass of themselves, would you have the authority and be in the right to tell that person that they were no longer welcome?

Yeah, right. Hang it in your ear. We do not support abortionism, homosexualism, progressivism, liberalism, socialism, marxism, environmentalism, RINOism, etc, on FR. Period. Advocates of same are not welcome here, are considered trolls, site pests and disruptors. And I’ve stated that up front many many times. Trolls and other unwelcome site pests are routinely escorted off the premises.

FR is private property. Do you believe that you can deny people entry into your home or is that abuse of power too?

Don't worry, there are plenty of places on the internet where you can post your soft porn. Now go away.

If I came into your work as a competitor and disrupted your business, you would not ban me?

If I came into your church and taught - say allah is great, you would not ban me?

If I came into your school and taught marxist doctrine to your kids, you would not ban me?

If I came into your HOME....

Listen, I could go on and on. But I doubt you would ever get the point. How have you been a FReeper as long as you have making a dumb statement like that?

LOL.

For campaigning for Romney?

RLY? How many times do you think Jim should have to make FR's pursuits, principles, purposes and foundations clear?

Good, I'm glad you won't abuse your power, I'll be right over, have the beer cold and it better be the right brand.

You signed up in 1998 just to say that?

Go to the Democratic Underground/ Daily Kos and tell everyone there how much you love Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. You’ll be banned there faster than you can say Mitt Romney.

Why is it that liberal sites can support or ban whatever they want, while some people believe conservative sites should be required to put up with liberal garbage?
