I’m watching now...

This might be a good thread for people to post to Bill O’Reilly and maybe even some will come forward and apologize for some of the comments made here last night. It’d go a long way in helping the reputation of this website.

I don't think this will happen. There are more and more posters on FR who act like young thugs thinking they are tough because they use crude language and call people names. It's almost a moderate, right wing version of the "Gangsta" culture. The reputation of FR was seriously hurt tonight. I don't know if BO really found all of the trash he said he found on FR just today, I hope not.

I don't know what the solution is, I'm sure JR can't afford full time paid moderators, but the discourse does seem to be deteriorating. There are many females I know that I would not recommend get on FR because of the crudity of many posters. This is not right.

I'm willing to take any course that will get us back to a forum about ideas, not the emotional, name calling, crudities that have become common on many threads.
