You storm in here, calling people names, and acting like a troll, implying you have "rights". Permit me to remind you this is a privately owned site, and a Conservative one.

Civility might be in order.

As for this thread, like any other, YOU clicked on it. You can click the same mouse and leave it, free to surf the entire internet, or check out other threads on Free Republic. If you do not like the thread, leave it. If you do not like the site, leave it.

BTW, I don't think you are Obama, you aren't that smooth. More like James Carville or Susan Estrich.

But I can't figure out why anyone might object so strenuously to us spending time inconveniencing a few electrons discussing the brutal murder of an attractive local news anchorperson, unless you are perhaps afraid of someone spotting a pattern, an inconsistency, or coming up with information which might solve the crime.

ok my apologiez for misunderstanding the article. very tragic, and i thought i caught a thread that the guy who did this used her CC.

to be honest i don’t think that many people saw “W”, it flopped. people go to the movies for entertainment, not a 1 sided story about a politician. They may have been coincidental but i can’t speculate.

Anyway, the catch on this can;t be soon enough. you’d think with todays dna matching etc something would have been very tracable.

but thanks for clearing the articles wording up.

Violent crime is indeed a political issue. OBAMA , for example, opposes the death penalty, something he has not been made to answer for in this campaign. As a state legislator, he sponsored “profiling” legislation which requires Illinois police to record the race of every motorist they subject to a traffic stop. (To avoid being tagged as “racist”, cops now are reluctant to stop suspicious cars with Black occupants, a factor that has led to an upward spike in violence in the Black neighborhoods in Chicago, including that of Obama.)

Oh...I thought the crime occured on Friday or Saturday and wasn’t discovered until Monday. Thanks for clarifying...

This was not done by a person. This was done by an animal that now should be hunted and exterminated. Period.

Exactly!

Anne Pressly, 26

Then there’s the Natalie Holloway effect, death or disappearance of attractive people automatically gets more coverage than when an ugly person dies.

another poorly written headline. while i am not a grammar fanatic, as a technical illustrator i have a certain attention to detail. one could infer from the way this headline is written the woman died after being beaten in the hospital. this is the 5th or 6th ambiguous headline i have read this week. maybe it’s just me.

another example “man killed by car on motorcycle.” how did the car get on the motorcycle and did this combination run the man down?

not trying to be funny. this is the kind of amgiguity that causes ballot issues to be misread when yes means no, etc.

You guys are the ones trying to make it about me in attacking me personally.

Piss off.

You have no right to anyone's time.

You act like a spoiled chid or liberal, always tugging at one's sleeve going, "mom, mm, mom, mom..." till you get their attention.

You authored a dumb post, live with it.

And get some professional help for the OCD.

Obama hurt the black community with that law. Cops working in the black community, usually poor and crime ridden, will make have to make drastically fewer stops to keep from exceeding a number that will brand them “racsists”.

Who suffers for this pandering to “political correctness”?

Thanks for the update. I don’t have the time I used to have and can’t follow along like I once did.

He(she) gave off all the vibes of being a plant.

Thanks.

Good riddance.

That one was too smooth for a n00b, imho.

It is that time in the cycle where we can expect a few of them, I just hope no one gives them any crap to use against the site.

Uh, if our leaders had anything to do with this, you won’t see anything else about this in the news. So far nobody has contested the break in story, because whoever did this expertly made it look like a robbery. The nature of the attack is highly inconsistent with a home invasion, and what criminal that just robbed a house and killed someone would go chill down the block at a gas station and use the just murdered persons credit card? That woman saw\heard\found something and was probably eliminated, but we will never know the truth.

I see you continued complaining.

Here's the irony: You sign up, and on that same day, YOU start complaining about this story being posted. Then you type:

I will gladly be banned before I decline to say what I want to say. I take that freedom of speech thing seriously, even if control freaks like you do not.

Stop and think for a moment. YOU are trying to stop crime stories from being posted here, and you think WE are the control freaks trying to stop free speech? LOL.

I’m still trying to figure out what I said that is “offensive” that you want me banned

And no one here can figure out what is so offensive about this story to you that you don't want it posted here.

In post #101, I explained fully to you why crime stories are posted on this forum. You ignored the explanation and continued to complain. If you don't like to read about crime, don't read those threads. It's that simple.
