Should everyone on this forum identify their race, religion, sexual orientation, etc. so Freepers can avoid offending the plethora of minorities?
This forum is full of bigots, misanthropes, misogynists, racists, too name a few of the types. Try calling yourself an atheist and see what happens. Or worse yet a libertarian or free trader.
Impossible to argue with all of them.
"Plethora of minorities"? On Free Republic? LOL.
The membership here is easily 97% caucasian. Besides myself, I only know of maybe three other blacks who post here.
I know there are also a sprinkling of hispanics, asians, and others here - but altogether, it's only a sprinkle. It's precisely WHY some Freepers feel emboldened enough to post racist memes and such.
I've got a suggestion. How 'bout we just park the racism and bigotry towards ANY other race outside.
Sound good? Well, it should, because that's been the rule at FR since day one.
I think there’s too much bickering lately.
Think about what unites us.
Twenty-one years, some Orangeman and I argued about our religions and our ethnic origins and got bounced by Jim. I lurked for awhile then used a new ID. That smartened me some.
Follow Windflier on this. He can smarten us good.
