FREEPER CALL TO ACTION #2 Regarding Racist Daily Kos Blogger Chris Parry
Various Google Searches ^ | July 13, 2009 | Joinedafterattack

Posted on 07/13/2009 7:55:13 AM PDT by joinedafterattack

Today is our final call to let your voices be heard. If you don't know what this issue is about read this http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2290929/posts and http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2291015/posts

Call his employer and let them know your disgust at these quotes of his. Contact info is below.

Chris Parry said, "If Laura Bush was on fire in front of me...I'll admit, I would use a fire extinguisher. To crush her Femmebot-like head like a coconut, then I'd run around the block, giggling and yelling and firing off the extinguisher like a drunken fratboy at a South Beach Motel 6"

Chris Parry Said "Laura Bush is a vagina-American"

Chris Parry called texans "Whitey" and "Crackers"

Chris Parry said regarding Palin "Was she pregnant? Was she lying? Doesn’t matter what the answer is. What matters is we keep asking the fucking question until she’s forced to address it once and for all. Because THEN we win. And THEN we can be pure again. Fool me once, I’ll punch you in the fucking head."

Chris Parry said “If God were a Republican, he’d be in the military, giving the order to shoot first, ask questions later. And if he did end up killing an unarmed Iraqi, for example, he’d empty thirty bullets into him, then reload, then another thirty. Then he’d hang a sign around the corpse warning other unarmed Iraqis that it could happen to them. Then he’d be arrested, investigated, acquitted, and turned into a trainer of other soldiers, while the guy who ratted on him would be dubbed `weak’ and transferred to latrine cleaning duty for the next three years.”

Chris Parry said "$2m says Palin does porn"

The Gawker.com crowd is also on their high horse regarding the quality of the posters here at FR. Does a double standard get any more risible? How many cheap, nasty shots have the gang over at Gawker taken at the Bush and Palin families, Condi Rice, Clarence Thomas, et al. over the years? Thousands, no doubt.

Actually when you get the “No Response” search page, you have to search for the blue “Find User” statement and hit it. Frustrating but it works when one figures it out.

The correct solution IMHO would have been to pull the original thread as soon as it was spotted,

___________________________________________________
It WAS pulled as soon as it got out of hand. And two other similar threads were pulled as soon as they were spotted. KOS simply thought threads two and three were the original thread re-instated.

Do us a favor and try not to be so eager to lap up the KOS Kool-Aid when it is placed in front of you.

Was the original thread originally posted on Saturday morning and pulled on Sunday evening?

Thanks for the information on the other threads. That was helpful.

Chris,
I want to point something out to you before I run. Have you noticed how rabidly FReepers have defended themselves against the racist charges? It is because we HATE racists and are sick of the left falsely using that label with us. (here is a link to an article that sums up the Right’s issue with this: http://rightresurgence.blogtownhall.com/2009/04/14/the_right__racism_myth.thtml )

IF, however, you go to a real racist website like Stormfront, they will jump up and proudly proclaim their racism. They will attempt to turn this on you with phrases like political correctness.

FReepers and true Conservatives fight Racism. We see a lot of racism on the left, especially when they tell minorities they aren’t good enough to succeed without Big Brother’s help. How about Ginsberg’s comments the other day about abortion being about controlling the ‘wrong types’ having babies. What is more racist than eugenics. Obama’s new science adviser mirrored these type of comments and made worse.

Challenge your assumptions.

“KOS simply thought threads two and three were the original thread re-instated.”

Darn, you finally put it in English. That makes sense. So there were three threads, not one. I have been reading this stuff for about 2 days now and frankly, I have been confused. (Of course, I was drinking part of that time.)

parsy, who takes a nip now and then for his rheumatism.

I have to disagree.

First off, I do not condone attacking anyone’s children, especially the President of the United States. While I vehemently disagree with the current POTUS and his politics, I respect the office. Further, if the voting record is truthful (and while I think there is election fraud every election, I do not believe there was enough election fraud to throw the election) and Obama won and McCain lost, then all of here us have every right to oppose Obama’s politics, but acknowledge the will of the people, even if they're wrong.

But, as Parry said, this isn't about the comments made, but how the moderators and owner of this forum reacted to them. The bottom line was the comments were deleted when abuse was reported/noticed. That is not new, it has always been that way here. I have sometimes reported abuse on a particular post if it was violent or racist in any way and then have seen that post gone within short minutes. The admin mods err on the side of caution, if they err at all.

One overreaching concern for me in the whole political dynamic we have in this country is the huge Leftward bias the press has against conservatives, religious Christians and others they find culturally or politically unacceptable. Chris Parry's past and current posting behavior has a huge aspect on this issue and cannot be ignored. Things have been explained by Jim Robinson and the admin moderators completely yet Parry is sticking to his original charge, which is laden by a terrible burning bias.

Sorry, but that's the way I see it. It is despicable.

Unbridled media bias is destroying our country. Any conservative IS the enemy to them—not someone who is wrong, confused, or misinformed, and God forbid possible right. No, the Left nowadays considers the Right as an enemy worth fighting by any and all means. The one network that dares to try fair and balanced reporting is ridiculed and slandered as a tool for the Right, while all the rest are not only tools of the Left, but the Left itself. What better way to see that by simply reading the utterings of one Chris Parry, reporter, online editor, and rabid Daily Kos contributor?

Makes sense now....Was one posted late at night or early morning?

. Just know the one I saw posts were pulled and then it disappeared in just a few minutes

Look, troll. Here’s my post:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2289769/posts

“But the writer has a point. We should steer clear of Obama’s children. They can’t help it if their old man is an American-hating Marxist pig.

And I’m sure the left really means no harm to Sarah Palin’s children. Thank God for the love and basic human decency displayed by TRUE Democrats.”

If you can’t see the sarcasm dripping off that post then you’re as blind and stupid as you are dumb.

You freaking liberals set the standard for “criticizing” politicians and their families, even their innocent and helpless little children and babies. You can dish out the insults but scream like banshees when you get it handed back. Effing wimps!

Well, I’m not going to apologize to you or your Marxist pig leaders for our people simply giving you back what you started. You want to raise the standards? Well, your side owns the media (for the time being anyway. Appears the Marxist MSM is headed for bankruptcy). Get busy. Jerk!

Screw you and your Marxist horse you freaking hypocritical lying two-bit cheapshot political whore! Some journalist. Political hack is more like it. You simply plagiarized the scum sucking posters at the DailyKOS who were also light on the facts and playing the innocent victims and fools. Hell, they were and are the lead in attacking Sarah Palin and her children. ESAD KOS kiddies!!

And for the information of the general public, the pulled thread was never reinstated. The thread in question was posted on the ninth and reported via abuse report on the morning of the 10th and was pulled within minutes of that report by the Religion Moderator “for review.” And it stayed pulled. The Admin Moderator later found two more copies of the same article (one posted on the 8th) and pulled them both around 11:00 am on the 10th. And he re-pulled the thread in question at the same time to change the “for review” pulling message to simply “pulled.”

Also, to clear up the mystery, our moderators do NOT review every post or every thread. That would be an impossible task. We do have a “pending” file where we get a chance to review newbie posts before they go public. That gives us a chance to reject the mental cases from DU and DailyKOS who seem to get off by registering troll accounts on FR to post homosexual porn. And that newbie review program has definitely reduced our number of perverted liberal headcase trolls.

It was so chaotic, we had trouble keeping them straight. But the fact of the matter is, when we saw racist posts, we zotted them with all the power and might of Valhalla, as always.
