On the right, weve grown to pride ourselves on our greater openness to debate and ideas, on having no need to toe a Politically Correct line or crawl into a safe space like pampered college kids who just cant handle hearing from anyone who disagrees with them.
For myself, I am so personally dedicated to this ideal that I even perform the great personal sacrifice of reading the comments field beneath my articles.
Yet somehow I wasnt surprised to see Donald Trump supporters, those swaggering tough guys, turn one of their favorite Internet forums into a safe space where they no longer need to encounter criticism or opposition. Earlier today, Free Republic proprietor Jim Robinson announced that the discussion board would no longer tolerate opposition to Trumps candidacy.

Bravo!
I agree we must unite behind Trump and not allow the Trump bashing anymore.
I don’t care for Trump at all myself, but I accept he is going to be the Republican nominee. We have unite behind our nominee so Hillary Clinton is NOT elected the President of the United States. That can not happen.
So with that, I hold my nose and say Go Trump!
Trump’s love for America is as deep as Clinton’s hate for it.
Those that hijacked ‘conservatism’ are the gods of their own creation.. And one need not travel far from communism to create themselves a ‘god’. The Bell Curve is proving to be an enigma of those snobs on the so called ‘right’.
LOL!
Hope you get this response—internet service is spotty in this level of Hell.
If they are talking about you, it is a good thing. The Trump candidacy has revealed who is and is not part of the GOPe. NR devoted an entire issue to stop Trump. The Bush family won’t endorse Trump. Pathetic.
OMG Just about lost iced tea all over the monitor. Good one!
He compares FR to Facebook...that’s inaccurate but kind of impressive.
Right on,Jim
TWB
Odd. You never got a direct answer to your question.
I think some plan on trolling all the way to the end. If they can get away with it.
The good ones still remain.
We know you are either a member (if so, probably a non-paying freeloader one) and/or are just lurking and smirking at the "knuckledraggers" on FR supporting Mr. Trump.
So, here are a couple of forms for you to fill out to more fully explain why you have such ButtHurt concerning your erroneous belief about a loss of "The Right to Free Speech" on this privately owned, and member supported, Internet Forum.
Select one or both forms, depending upon which one will best convey your obvious indignation at the FR Site owner in deciding how to run and operate his private Internet site.
Also, You'll want to be sure and annotate on the bottom/back of the form(s) the reason why every article on your Web site "The Tracinski Letter" has the following: "Comments are closed".
In addition, Your comment: But those of us on the right ... makes one wonder if you actually think You are a "Leader" of "the Right". More likely, You just have a lot of Frogs in Your pockets, like Jeb.
Bkmrk.
Robert Tracinski.....
“I’m afraid of the Conservatives winning!”
Tough, Bobby boy.
” What kind of person writes their college thesis on Saul Alinsky and continues to honor him throughout her life? “
Not only honor him, but adopt and put into practice all of his RULES.
90% seems too high. I’m still here (but I came close a few times.}
He’s a leader of the right (side of the buffet) along with Karl Rove, apparently.
Wonder if they held hands at a Jeb Bush rally. Jeb is “conservative” to most of those types.
If you don't mind, check out my post #74. Are you familiar with Dr. Anthony Napoleon and his work? He approached Trump three years ago to run.
Exactly...If they don’t like the way they are treated, they can go...If they don’t like who is the candidate that will best serve real, patriotic Americans, they can vote for the b*tch...
It IS a free country and because of that, they can be just as stupid as they want....
