Remember, if they can tell you who can use your bathroom
is there anything they CAN’T tell you.

It has to stop, here, now.

Are there still people posting their anti-Trump posts here? I am amazed at their obstinate rudeness.

As you no doubt are aware, this is Jim Robinson’s PRIVATELY-owned website. You are his guest.

He has made repeated and polite requests asking that posters who have a difficult time ceasing to write posts critical of Trump to please TAKE IT ELSEWHERE.

I thought surely after his most recent request, anti-Trump posters would comply. But, sadly, I see this is not the case.

This is just common courtesy, LowOil.

Your HOME PAGE also has remarks insulting to Mr. Trump.
You are using Jim’s private website to peddle anti-Trump material.

Will you please be respectful of Mr. Robinson’s request, and show him respect by honoring his simple request?

Thank you.

And then you get supposedly intelligent adults sitting there discussing “men who identify as women” and “boys who identify as girls” and how they should not be discriminated against.

But it's okay to discriminate against the 99.999% who aren't mentally ill cross dressing idiots.

Every fracking gay I spoke with was a psychopath. Always around those firls who said they had a gay feminine guy at their side who was there solely to get a chance at the guys around those girls or even scoring sex with some of these girls.

And now they want them with little girls in bathrooms...

I can see National Guard soldiers lined up on both sides of a bathroom door while US Marshals march a 6 year old “transgender” child into the girls bathroom.

Unfortunately it will be the National Guard lined up on both sides of the state capital of North Carolina and any other state that goes up against the alleged justice department.

The northern aggression again.

Are there still people posting their anti-Trump posts here? I am amazed at their obstinate rudeness.

I posted Trump's position, do you agree with it or not. This site proclaims to be Pro-God first and foremost. On this issue you aren't a man if you can't say that evil is evil?

Paul wrote, "Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil" (Rom. 12:9)

In other words... Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Do you love? Is it sincere? Then cling to what is good. Letting male perverts go in the restroom with little girls is not love and if you have a conservative bone in your body you know it.

As you no doubt are aware, this is Jim Robinson’s PRIVATELY-owned website. You are his guest.

This is a true argument. But just like Roy Moore being told to follow like a little doggy to the liberal court overreaching, so will I go down fighting for what I believe is right. You can ping the boss all you like, I will not cower like a no named newbie with nothing on their me page, because they have no character to present. You blow with the wind if you wish, I will stick to solid ground.

He has made repeated and polite requests asking that posters who have a difficult time ceasing to write posts critical of Trump to please TAKE IT ELSEWHERE.

Therein lies the rub, I didn't post something critical of Trump unless you also have a problem with his position, I posted his recent public views. So either you have a problem with this subject or Trump, I am man enough to say which, you are not.

I thought surely after his most recent request, anti-Trump posters would comply. But, sadly, I see this is not the case.

I want to support Trump, if he would stop being a bonehead on issues like this perhaps I could. I am a Christian Conservative, I will go down as one. You, perhaps not so much.

This is just common courtesy, LowOil.

No, this was you pinging JR because you were butthurt I dared not march lockstep in tune with a position that runs contrary to Christian Conservative principles. Remember God first is FR's motto. I doubt even today's JR agrees with Trump on this issue, if he does, then I don't want to be here.

You are using Jim’s private website to peddle anti-Trump material.

Again, spinning a lie, I posted Trump's recent position. Do you have a problem with it, or do you have no problem with perverts going into restrooms with little girls? I imagine you are too chickenpoop to say, just like your blank homepage.

Will you please be respectful of Mr. Robinson’s request, and show him respect by honoring his simple request?

Let me rephrase that for you... You want all dissent of Trump to cease even when promoting perverts being allowed to ogle little girls (and worse) in bathrooms. What a panty waist little liberal you showed yourself to be. I am ashamed if this is what is left of FR.

And what will president Hillary do? She’s already said that people will simply have to change their religious beliefs. She’s a godless commie. She wants to ban the bible.

Ok, if you’re not going to help us defeat Hillary and in fact want to work against us, you can sit it out from FR for the duration with the other NeverTrumpers.

>>I posted Trump’s position, do you agree with it or not. This site proclaims to be Pro-God first and foremost. On this issue you aren’t a man if you can’t say that evil is evil?

You are on a privately-owned website whose owner has repeatedly stated that it is not his intention to aid and abet HRC with anti-Trump posts. Your words do exactly what you have been kindly asked not to do. That is rude. Your home page has horrible slams against Mr. Trump. You can justify your post with whatever holier-than-thou position you wish to take, and, on top of it, bring into question the quality of other people’s Christianity if they choose not to take your bait. That is stunningly arrogant and condescendingly judgmental. That you would continue to argue basic posting guidelines is being obstinately stubborn and unjustifiably rude. You can try to hide behind Christianity but it just rings hollow, if you can’t be courteous to your host.

>>Paul wrote, “Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil” (Rom. 12:9)

I abhor the evil of obstinate, condescending arrogance of those holier-than-thou “Christians” who choose someone else’s website to pedal their sanctimonious positions. It is not love to disrespect.

>>In other words... Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Do you love? Is it sincere? Then cling to what is good. Letting male perverts go in the restroom with little girls is not love and if you have a conservative bone in your body you know it.

Do not use a request to abide by a website’s owner to step up on a soapbox and distract from the point of my post.

>>As you no doubt are aware, this is Jim Robinson’s PRIVATELY-owned website. You are his guest.
>>This is a true argument. But just like Roy Moore being told to follow like a little doggy to the liberal court overreaching, so will I go down fighting for what I believe is right. You can ping the boss all you like, I will not cower like a no named newbie with nothing on their me page, because they have no character to present. You blow with the wind if you wish, I will stick to solid ground.

That is why JR specifically said, if you can’t abide by his request, and still want to post this type of stuff, to please “Take it elsewhere”. JR can not read every post on every thread. I assist where I can.

>>He has made repeated and polite requests asking that posters who have a difficult time ceasing to write posts critical of Trump to please TAKE IT ELSEWHERE.
>>Therein lies the rub, I didn’t post something critical of Trump unless you also have a problem with his position, I posted his recent public views. So either you have a problem with this subject or Trump, I am man enough to say which, you are not.

But you do post anti-Trump stuff. Stealthily. By posting this, you encourage dissension. This topic appears to be near and dear to your heart, and given that, you would also know there is more to what transpired with DJT’s comment than what you initially wrote. But, I will not get into that because that was not the gist or purpose of my post. And, because I choose not to get drawn into that, you respond by questioning my Christianity or “maleness”? No wonder non-Christians often look at Christians and label them with the holier-than-thou tag.

>>I thought surely after his most recent request, anti-Trump posters would comply. But, sadly, I see this is not the case.
>>I want to support Trump, if he would stop being a bonehead on issues like this perhaps I could. I am a Christian Conservative, I will go down as one. You, perhaps not so much.

And there you go again, calling the presumptive Republican nominee a name. Bonehead. Your name-calling is a perfect example to that which I referred in my initial post.

>>This is just common courtesy, LowOil.
>>No, this was you pinging JR because you were butthurt I dared not march lockstep in tune with a position that runs contrary to Christian Conservative principles. Remember God first is FR’s motto. I doubt even today’s JR agrees with Trump on this issue, if he does, then I don’t want to be here.

Stop projecting your hurt onto others. It is rejected. Own it and move to a site where you can feel free to judge other people’s Christianity, name-call the Republican presumptive nominee, all the while disrespecting the wishes of the site’s owner because you have decided to use HIS website to uphold your version of what YOU think his site should be.

>>You are using Jim’s private website to peddle anti-Trump material.
>>Again, spinning a lie, I posted Trump’s recent position. Do you have a problem with it, or do you have no problem with perverts going into restrooms with little girls? I imagine you are too chickenpoop to say, just like your blank homepage.

And you continue with your lies, and again insist on posting insults and judging others, all in the name of God and Christianity, because they choose to post and ask you to respect JR’s guidelines.

>>Will you please be respectful of Mr. Robinson’s request, and show him respect by honoring his simple request?
>>Let me rephrase that for you... You want all dissent of Trump to cease even when promoting perverts being allowed to ogle little girls (and worse) in bathrooms. What a panty waist little liberal you showed yourself to be. I am ashamed if this is what is left of FR.

And again, you presume to know my position on this topic, when you know nothing of it. You assume, figure something in your mind, and it becomes fact in your head. And again, you write more insults. And again, you judge. Insult and judge, and set up your own “benchmarks” of which you request a response. And, in the absence of such, you feel justified to assume the “holier than thou” position. Wow.

And all this because you choose to rudely persist, when given a chance, to show common courtesy and respect.

It is indeed a sad day when anti-Trump posts are posted, for they do indeed aid and abet the Tyrants. These types of posts are Tyrant-Enabling. As another FReeper has recently said: “Get behind Trump or Get out of the way. We have a nation to save.”

One day, perhaps your eyes will be opened. Though you may be offended, nevertheless, I will pray for you this evening, Low Oil.

The letter is not legally binding.

A LOT of the crap he has pushed is "not binding" but he and his minions find ways to coerce compliance. It's like the mob runs the WH.
