First of all. We are not making conservatives look bad as this is a conservative site and we are all conservatives. Second of all, you wouldn't leave children alone with us? We are not pedophiles and although you don't agree with our tactics, you must know that we are not criminals. We simply don't want to have Perry as the nominee. I have absolutely no problem with him as Governor of Texas. I think that some of you guys get a bit heated with us too. As Jim says, the primaries are very heated around here but once the nominee is elected, the peace returns. I am not sure when you joined but I remember in 2008 it was a bit heated to on the Fred Thompson threads. The main point I want to make with you is leaving children in the hands of fellow FREEPERS in not a problem at all. We are good people who disagree with you.

I'm conservative and it looks bad to me. I've been here since Feb. of '98 and this is the nastiest I've ever seen on FR and it's mostly coming from the Cain supporters. Would you want children exposed to one supposedly adult accusing another of playing with sex toys? ... a Cain supporter to a Perrywinkle. No, I wouldn't want children reading the dirty comments some of you have written...simply because a person has a different opinion! That is totally uncalled for. IMO, you all sound like a bunch of adolescents!

A lot of old FReepers have moved on and won't be back! Are you aware how many who don't support Cain have been zotted? Do you know how many more have voluntarily moved to other, more mature web sites?

Yes, we get heated by some of the utterly stupid comments and I am guilty of fighting back at times. The immaturity of some of you has been unbelievable and all civility has disappeared.

FWIW, this is one of the more sensible responses you made recently. I commented once that I thought a pro who studies group-dynamics should study y'all. I was serious. Individually I'm sure you are nice people but when you get together to attack people who disagree with you, you turn vicious and nasty.

I believe you don't realize the damage that's been done to FR. Believe me, it has done a lot of damage and the people who have left took their donations with them. You're costing JR $$$. Next FReepathon is going to be even worse. Wait and see! The unintended consequence of your organized attacks on people is that FR has become a joke that a lot of people no longer want to be associated with...it certainly is no big deal to be zotted!

What will you do when we are all gone?...fight each other?
