Time to prosecute the Free Republic vandal outright. (Vanity)

today | By Lazamataz

[Lazamataz]

There is an internet vandal who defaces Free Republic with very gross pictures (homosexual sex and stuff from rotton.com) as well as posting "ALL YOU F***** N*****S & JEWS SHOULD BE LYNCHED".

He pings a variety of people to his post, ensuring that the trash is still in their My Posts lists.

To me, this isn't the milder form of harassment that Eschoir engaged in so many years ago. The very worst he would do is ask if you ever committed sodomy, and he once used the screen name "Paula Jones Tw*t". This is mild.

What this sick piece of work is doing is much more egregious. I believe it crosses the line into criminal defacement and restraint of trade. Are there any Free Republic lawyers (especially prosecutors) who can address this issue, and are there any private detectives with internet savvy that will help track the identity of this person down?

"Git 'er done!"

Is it gone?

Generally, he/she/it posts early in the day (usually between 8 & 10 or so), and is done for the day.

We won't know if it's "gone" until tomorrow (or the next day, or the next, or the next...); I've seen a full week go between hits before, so I don't truly think he's gone. Yet.

thanks for those data

[mhking]

Deja-vu?

Indeed.

This is a good example of why I very seldom post anymore. Ahhhhh, for the good old days with a few flames thrown in! At least a person's opinion was respected then...

They could filter stuff like <img src=http://www.rotten.com/blah> out of the HTML.

TubGirl is a cadaver who was rigged up for that lil show

That makes the image even more disgusting.

[mhking]

so long as these horrid posts remain ANYWHERE on the site's code, an opponent/detractor of FreeRepublic.com can in all literal fact claim that "those awful people at FR host virulent violence-mongering racist commentary."

Indeed.

[King Prout]

ya gotta think like a snake, to anticipate what the raging left will attempt to pull off.

Question: Is the jerk hacking FR, or is this a post-and-run motif?

[trussell]

I agree...blessed is more like it. This is horrible stuff! Almost convinced me it was a good thing to wash my eyes out with bleach!

Yeah, true in principle. But that can turn into a never ending chase too, as people hide the URL in hard-coded-IP expressed in various forms, etc.

BTW, do you know of a HTML filter for the client side? From time to time I've attempted a bozo filter for FR (no, you aren't a bozo), but can't find anything.

[mhking]

I took this as a personal threat, and whomever this person is, come and get me.

Indeed.

I'm a large enough man that though a virtual teddy bear on the surface, if I get riled, my mere presence scares the spit out of anyone in the room. And I don't even need to raise my voice... [g]

Now I don't have any crumb snatchers yet, or even any cake snatchers, but I can only imagine having your child with you and that image comes up. Makes me go "click, click."

Tre loves the kids, man.

Question? How many OUTLAWS hang out at FreeRepublic. No not motorclycle enthusiets. Back when Chandra went missing and things came up about the good Senator in question going to Certified (for my own protection will not give details) Outlaw parties and then freepers sticking up for"outlaw" MC's even thinking how "cool". These Outlaw MC gangs can do all the toy run's they want, I know different and I won't say from where but I know. Bottom line Jew and Blacks are the most hated. Again from my view and it has been many years they are usually recruited for their weakness' and feel strong once they can have an outlet for their pain. They are the scum of the earth. What about other Gangs who are rooted in this type of mentality. I won't answer any ??? on what I know as I never participated but was around key people who were Prestident of Clubs while teaching HS history. Oh and yes the Law enforcement in that time was related as relatives it was one big happy family. Nuff said.

That's where Junior's genes shine in me. I don't yell. A look is all anyone needs to know where I'm at in the head, ya heard?

[oceanperch]

Good question gitmo and I would like to bump it.

[mhking]

Question: Is the jerk hacking FR, or is this a post-and-run motif?

It appears to be a type of hit and run -- whoever this is knows FR's software and posters intimately. He knows who he's targeting, what threads he's targeting, hitting multiples at once (16 this morning inside a two to three minute stretch), and waiting for the ZOT.

Indeed. Thankfully, none of the little ones have seen it. But I want this drek taken care of before any of 'em do.
