If independent thinking were banned here, you’d be gone. Not for your political support but for your obnoxious, anti-FReeper-community statements.

And poof! sklar was gone!

I never heard of sklar until this morning, BTW.

IIRC, sklar had made reference to independent thinking not being tolerated at FR recently.

After reading sklar's post history here, it seems he was still a Palin supporter who didn't like Cain. He didn't seem to like Cain even a little bit...was still hoping Palin would save her mind

For that, sklar was falsly called a Romneybot.

I have seen much worse posted by people who weren't zotted...and proved the point he was trying to make. A lot of people agree with him on that who don't agree with him politically.

There is little, if any, room for independent thinking on FR these days and you don't have to be a Romneybot to be punished!

I'm probably next for having said that. But...

Today we are honoring the men who fought and died for freedom and NOBODY on FreeRepublic is going to shut me today!

Zot me if it's come to that!

Who cares--I don't-- if you have to watch what you say! My sin is I still support Perry...and I'm NOT ashamed of it!

I can't zot you, sweetie. I just post when someone has been zotted. I pinged you because you announced to the thread that sklar was gone.

You may have a different opinion about whether the moderators should zot someone, but the decision is theirs. They are very careful about serious matters like revoking posting privileges, and in my experience, they're thorough and fair in their decisions.

Jim Robinson's intentions about the tenor, culture, and ambiance of his own website are plastered all over the place, and if there is anyone who wants a different site, they are welcome to leave at any time. But they are not welcome to change anything in Free Republic's charter.

But you're closing in on 14 years here, so why am I, a mere n00b, preaching to you? [shuts up and goes away]
