Well, it's been 4 years since I first found Free Republic. I have always felt like I belonged here and have really enjoyed the banter back and forth between us members. I am afraid all this is now over. I am really suprised and shocked at it's suddenness. Before I leave I want to thank a freeper from Michigan who sent me a DVD player last year to give to my kids for Christmas. You reaffirmed my faith in humanity.
I know this thread will be deleted before many people get to read it, but I just can't go without saying a final word. Every since 911 the 'vibe' here at FR has been decidedly hostile. I guess it was a matter of time before the newbie moderator got around to weeding me out for my sometimes unpopular views. So I join the ranks of A+Bert and so many others who gave FR a interesting flavor. I will miss coming here 20 times a day and keeping up on things. But without posting priviledges there is just no point. I must go find another conservative group to try to be a part of.
In the future, when a freeper who has been a loyal member since August 1998 crosses the line, how about a note instead of banning? Would that have been too much? I may have gotten out of line, how is beyond me, but if such a tresspass would have been pointed out I would gladly have refrained from doing so again. It is just not right to just ban an account with no explaination. Especially when the freeper has been here 4 years. I have no idea what I am going to do with my days now that I no longer have FR. Well, I guess I have said my part. It is a sad day when one has to leave family and friends. I feel like some of you were just that. But apparently I am no longer wanted around here. I bid my good day to you all and hope that karma pays it's respects to those who do injustice.
I hate facts. Please restrain yourself to unsubstantiated slurs, innuendos, half-truths, mistatements, or libelous observations.
Well that is certainly your prerogative.
Pete doesn't need to inform anyone of anything. Pete is a tough guy without talking about it.
My only claim to fame, is that I'm not wearing any pants.
One of the posts you showed us stated (if I remember correctly) that his siblings couldn't graduate from high school because of so-called thugs....I wonder if he graduated from elementary school!
Poor guy! I can't imagine being filled with so much hate!
Don't tell me you are fat and bald?
LMAO
You mean like you do with the Keyes and JW threads? Not everyone can have such self-restraint. ;-)
Oh no! Now you have no ass!
Fred is slender and has a full head of hair.
Looks to me, partner, like I hit a nerve. :)
You busted me. And short too! Ignore Laz's remarks, he's my disinfo guy.
If you give me an address, I will send you a wallet-sized photo.
Oh believe me the "Sneakster" never fails to inform everyone 24/7 of his manhood. - 'tex'
Nope, his manhood is evident. - Yours is suspect, thus your puffychest attitude. Whatta hilarious jerk.
No I'm not. </disinfo>
