"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 agree with you. But I believe much of the crap posted is libs and progs chumming the waters. I know of no true conservatives that are racist. The problem is the FR is getting less conservative.
