Banned from Demoncratic Underground ... for just being a Freeper
Mine

Posted on 09/29/2001 6:39:21 PM PDT by clamper1797

Yes ...its true. I discovered today that I have been banned from DU(h) simply for the following ....

Offense #1.
Replying to a post that was complaining that given the political atmosphere since 9-11 odds are that our country will probably have a Republican House, Senate, and President after the 2002 election. I replied ... one can only hope.
Offense #2.
Posting in my profile that my profile could be viewed at www.freerepulic.com

Thank the stars we have such a bastion of freedom and free thought like DU(h)

Popped over on your link and found this:

FearForTheRepublic.com "A Warmongering News Forum"

Yeah, I saw that too, but look at who posted that link over at DU...........Eschoir!

For those who don't know who Eschoir was: Free Republic v. Aldridge:Federal Court Issues Permanent ...

five minutes later, I was banned

I got banned from DU 3 times in 1 day!

DU banning #1: For merely commenting on a pro-Bush article by Gerald Posner (a leftist.)

DU banning #2: For posting a paragraph of the Hitchens piece from the Nation.

DU banning #3: Well I was fed up by then and I gave them a piece of my mind.

Here's a DU posting hint: The thought police there check out your post while you are previewing it! Therefore if they see anything objectionable, they will ban you before it can even be posted.

Solution? Simply do all your editing in your word processor, then when it's ready, cut a paste it into their form and post it all in one fell swoop with no preview. Then, at least, the post will appear before you are banned, and believe me, you will be banned if you step out of the party line.

Thanks for posting the link, I did notice that he had been the one but until now I didn't know the whole story. I was brand spanking new around here when that went down.

I posted an article last night on DU taken from the AP showing that Gore suppressed the Military vote in Florida. I was banned in like sixty seconds and the only reply was "Another Freeper" or something like that. And I've only been a member here for a day!:)

I don't know what you all are complaining about. didn't you all know that the Democratic Party put a man on the moon and gave us the civil rights act? Don't believe me? Well, according to one of the DUngsters, it's true!

Time to broaden your reading material, I guess. One good place to start is here. This site got a writeup in my local paper (Houston Comical Chronicle) in the business section -- they did a backgrounder on the folks that set up this website that caters to Pakistanis living in the U.S. and elsewhere, sort of a Yahoo for Paks.

Anyway, the link above sends you to the message board they have on the site, and it won't take you long to find the anti-American sentiment there. Seems like this place could use a serious Freeper-Adjustment.

AAS - member since... umm, today. (howdy y'all!)

I have also been banned several times.

I do however have some running identities which is getting information out. There are ways to be effective on a site like DU.

Come on over here and have some fun with these fools. Best part is you don't even have to register to post. Or you can. We have lots of freepers posting there now but we need more to counter the liberals there.

A fine badge of honor to have.

Personally, I don't bother with those sites. However, did you see the report on the UCLA FReep? We will get a chance to debate these a--holes in the streets where we can't be banned. Let's give them a lesson about colors that don't run, and the feel of the eagle's talon.

Well I found out that they are all about ... nothing but hate America, hate Bush, hate freedom .... Hmmmm I guess it's really just about .... hate.

You give them far too much credit, you forget the things they love: terrorism, murder of civilians, and the destruction of values such as free speech (this last as manifest by the way they run their "forum").

Right now those who don't think we need to act militarily to defend our country are simply asking for more of these disasters.

Well with "moderators" with names such as "Lydia_Leftcoast" and "Khephra", what other outcome would one expect...

Perhaps we should have a contest and give a prize to whoever gets banned the quickest. Now what kind of post to DU would get you quickly banned???

As it should be. This is a conservative news forum, not a free for all. If you want free speech, stand on your own property or public property.

I had the same experience and posted it here. As I have always said, "if you want to find out just how 'liberal' a "libeal" is, try disagreeing w/him/her..."

They are Hitlerites posing as "liberals" -- don't expect a "fair" shake from ANY of THEM!

It was posted on DU(h) that there are coverted freepers who now are on their site. I'm curious who those could possibly be ? I would think that anyone who had seen the light of truth would know who those .... ummmm ..... people are and what they really are.

Most likely they're lying (Democrats lying. Big surprise). Much like those thousands of phonies who call up C-Span on the Democrat line just to say: "I used to be a Republican BUT...."
