Until I see evidence otherwise, I'd say it's clear that the site owner allows the type of outrageous postings that we see here on a daily basis.

Sadly, the current interpretation of "free speech" that brought us "Piss Christ" extends to dialogue in the RF.

I can remember shared standards of decency that informed public discourse. A website which exists to reclaim the Republic should encourage its participants in that direction. However, that cannot come from the top down; it must come from the bottom up.

I understand the dilemma that Jim faces and cannot really suggest a better way to moderate the discussion than he has chosen. I can encourage all of us to recognize trolling and baiting for exactly what it is. Deal with that as you do when you are standing on the street and a stinky bus comes by and stops right in front of you. Just hold your breath for a few seconds until it moves on. Then breath again and thank God for oxygen.
