Ok, this is a free for all thread. Come in and take your best shots. I promise I won't delete it or get upset. Get it out of your systems and then we will see if we can solve the problems. There always several sides to any story and several possible solutions to any problem. I'd like to hear them all and I'd like to solve as many problems as we can and get this forum kicking socialist butt again instead of kicking each other. So, please anyone with a complaint or a problem or a possible solution, (moderators, posters, FAB, everyone) please chime in. Thanks, Jim
"Why is this in Crime and Corruption?
1.The first time it was deleated
2.Treasonious acts perpitraited by our government.
3.Because Im a Freeper,and this is important to me,I dont ask for anyone elses stuff to be deleated.
4.I dont care if you don't like my spelling.
Please read the Constitution,The bill of Rights and The Comunist Manifesto.
Then you judge for yourself if TREASON is afoot.
After the Attack,it baffels me how many people are willing to surrender their rights to the government,After all they have done such a great job so far.With all the talk of a National ID card,the Dictatorish passing of these new laws,when will it end?"
That was the entire article.
Vanities are not to be posted to any category other than "Your Opinions/Questions". Those that can be posted elsewhere are those which Jim has approved previously, or those which are of such quality that one would not be shocked if they found it in a magazine. In my estimation, yours did not qualify.
Further, as your #1 mentions, it had been pulled before. Any time a person has an article pulled and posts it back, that article WILL be pulled again. At a minimum, the poster in question will get a warning, if not a suspension or ban.
Now, what was the original article? Here it is:
"Please read the Constitution,The Bill of Rights,The federalist Papers,The Communist Manifesto and the UN objectives. Then tell me what's wrong with this picture.
So many people are willing to surrender to terrorism it baffle's me.A national ID card,More Government powers.Our forefathers must be rolling in their graves.Looks as though we are going to loose our "REPUBLIC"on our watch."
Not only was this posted to Crime/Corruption, but you asssigned it to the Breaking News sidebar. How on earth can you justify that as breaking news?
You can't.
zook, I flagged you to this since you had asked a question about it.
Take a look at this post by New Horizon that just got deleted:
FReepers tend to be merciless against new posters, no matter what the topic may be. The first item of business? Check the poster's sign-up date. Next item of business? Slam them for being an uneducated "newbie". The "post police" on this forum, (who really have no contribution other than to surf for duplicate posts, and then proceed to tell you how stupid you are for posting the article that was posted already), are really a bunch of irritating a$$holes. I sometimes DON'T MIND a duplicate post, okay? It's NOT A BIG ISSUE, okay? Get A LIFE, okay?
There now exists a procedure where, if desired, EVERY post and EVERY reply ever made by a certain Freeper, can be purged from the entire database. Thus, even non-offensive and germaine contributions by a Freeper are erased along with the offending material. The Freeper becomes a non-person, along with every response they ever made to any thread. That's as Soviet as it gets.
Here's my complaint: I hate it when people (who are supposed to be on the same side as me) want to yank my freedoms (especially 2nd and 19th amendments) or view me as part of a monolith they fear/despise, making illogical generalizations about me or people like me.
I hate it when they do it about other groups of individuals, too, not just because it's rotten, but it makes FR look like it's infested with morons. An inability to discern between individuals and groups of individuals displays ignorance, and calling it "conservative thought" gives fodder to the enemy and weakens the cause.
I really, really don't understand why the "repeal the 19th amendment" neanderthals don't get banned as quickly as the "repeal the 13th amendment" neanderthals.
Other than that, this is the best place on earth.
BUMP!
