What would you do Without FR?????

How would You Feel without FR??? Suppose one day you tried to log on and Free Republic wasn’t there?
Where would you get your up to the minute news? How about the live threads as things are happening?
How would you know about the latest Demorat scams, anti-second amendment schemes and all the other liberal, anti-American ploys that are tried every single day?
Insight into world affairs, brilliant wit, sharp retorts, instant information gratification are a few of the things that make FR so vital.

How would you keep on top of things without FR?
How would you know who to contact to complain about the lying politicians, Media Bias, Hollyweirds latest mouth off, sponsors of these idiots, company policies that are unfair and all the other things we need to know to counteract the liberal mindset and the evil plans of liberals?
How would you be part of a Freep?

What would you do without FR????

Freedom isn’t free.

If you enjoy the site and find it a place of like minded Americans to sound off, to get together,
to fight back, to have your voice heard and make a difference, PLEASE CONTRIBUTE NOW! Jim can’t do this alone.

The liberals are sure we won’t be able to keep FR up & running. Prove them wrong. Show them we are indeed united Freepers.
Whether it is $5.00, $50.00 or more, it all adds up. Please send a donation now to Free Republic.

""My dad was a cop, and he always told me the best way to get killed is to have a gun in the house."

More proof, if more was needed, that cops are no more likely to support the Constitution than, say, newspaper reporters!

More and more these days, papers are full of stories about athletes being arrested for carrying concealed weapons. Policy-makers and researchers cringe, parents shake their heads in chagrin, and kids receive another wrong message.

This is an editorial piece, right, not news copy? If so, it seems to me that the author is arguing for "shall issue" or Vermont-style CCW laws, right? Right on!

That way, this harassment of athetes will someday (soon?) come to a halt.

But most of us don't have to deal with criminals on a daily basis.

So what do you call Neffy?
