For Amerigo Vespucci: Freepers have mass shit fit over Trayvon Gate...

[DisgustipatedinCA]

(edited to remove the extraneous copied "view profile" from title)

This was voted down by a jury 4-2 for "linking" to FR. We post links all the time to Free Republic, but now, we're not even allowed to talk about these lowlifes? Well, here it is again. I don't have a link, and I haven't recently visited FR. But if this is the kind of shit they're going on about, it's fair game for us to know about it.

Jurors, please don't stop this forum from talking about what Republicans are discussing on FR. We've been doing this since the site started. Please give this careful consideration before voting to keep us from talking about the Freeps.


Here's AV's OP, in its entirety:

Freepers have mass shit fit over IfIHadASonHe'dLookLikeTrayvon-Gate. I guess none of them have kids. [View all]
The Thread: Obama: �If I Had A Son He'd Look Like Trayvon�

To: RabidBartender

From Twitter: �The ONLY reason Obama is talking about this shooting is because it can be used to further divide the country.�

What a POS he is. Always playing the race card, or does he mean the kid was half white?

�If I had a son he�d look like Trayvon.� Try it and see. See how many of your racist, baby-killing supporters would cheer you and your wife having that third child. I dare you.

Actually, Obama is not dividing the country (from his POV)...he is solidifying it against the White devils (in a manner consistent with Black Liberation Theology).

What type of F�ed up comment is that? This is worse than pandering.

"...he'd look like me."

I was driving when I heard this and I almost ran off the garbage-strewn Memphis road.

WHAT A RACE-BAITING POS.

Also, notice how he said he'd take ONE question...and it was about Trayvon Davis. The question was a PLANT---with his answer neatly rehearsed--which then also served to ward off any OTHER questions...

namely the otherwise likely number one question: HIS OBAMACARE ANNIVERSARY.

We need to get it together, guys, and focus on bringing down this ENEMY OF OUR NATION. If we don't...and he gets re-elected...

WE WON'T HAVE A COUNTRY IN A MATTER OF MONTHS. SERIOUSLY. Think about it.

1. One seems to be arguing that Obama supporters

Would be angry if the first family had another child. Why? I don't get it.

[arcane1]

3. Because librul love them some abortion, I suppose

Who could hope to make sense out of these fools?

[RZM]

5. I guess that's it

Make no sense, of course. But that's probably what this person believes.

[Ian David]

4. Who the fuck told them what Democrats and Liberals supposedly believe? n/t

[Lint Head]

2. We need to know what the other side thinks all of the time.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

[XanaDUer]

8. I agree

They're even nuttier about this than I wondered they'd be. Esp the remark about boyscout / out at night etc. weird.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

9. That is THE ONLY reason I post F.R. content here, and you've nailed it.

"We need to know what the other side thinks all of the time."

I would think that, given the way that I frame this material when I post it, that my intentions would be obvious to more people. But I thank you for saying it here, and allowing me to confirm it.

[Jim Lane]

24. Secondary reason is the entertainment value.

But I agree with you that knowledge is the primary value and that such posts are useful.

[hifiguy]

6. For the life of me I couldn't understand why

that thread was locked. It was not one bit different from all the other threads around here laughing at the Freeps for their cement-headed ignorance and racism.

I think the jury completely blew it in regard to that thread.

[OKNancy]

13. yes, bad alert and bad jury decision

It's not against the rules to link to freerepublic

[xchrom]

7. Honestly? Is any one on DU surprised by the Troglodyte Freepers

And what they think?

They masturbate hysterically - and we masturbate after them?

Who cares about those dim fucks?

Out w/ the trash.

[Wait Wut]

10. We should care about those dim fucks.

If we don't, there's the danger of becoming complacent. We battle with each other here often enough. Threads like this and AV's original remind us of why we're here together. It reminds us that no matter how irritating that reply to your post was...we aren't like "them". These types of threads help define the line in the sand.

The insight into their way of thinking helps us. But, no one is going to force you to read it.

[hifiguy]

11. +1

Well said. Reading their insanity within the safe confines of DU is a good motivator and reminder of just what kind of barking-mad idjits there are in this country.

[RobertEarl]

12. I trashed that OP

and will trash this one too, but first I will say if I wanted to read that trash I would go to there and read it. Glad it was trashed. Goodbye.

[Wait Wut]

14. So...

I guess you don't agree with my post?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

18. And I just sent an alert on YOU.

You don't get to "trash" threads here because YOU DON'T LIKE THEM.

Goodbye to you too.

[SidDithers]

20. Actually we do get to "trash" threads here...

But that doesn't change the fact that it was a shitty alert and a shitty jury decision that got your FR post hidden.

Sid

[Wait Wut]

21. AV has ruffled some feathers.

[xchrom]

16. I don't agree or disagree w/ people because of fuckin Freepers.

Ignorant Ass Wipes always lower the level level of discourse.

DU can't improve on it, can't illuminate it, can't add to it - except we beat off to it like loons.

Like you say, though - feel free not to read this.

[Wait Wut]

19. Got it.

[onethatcares]

15. just keep this in mind

there are 24% of the American public that think like that. Those numbers should give you pause and make you

realize that this is not the land of milk and honey. Those same people want to take this country back to the 1600s

and couldn't actually put three sentences together if they had to when it came to advancing this nation for

everyone.

It's best we know what they are saying and thinking.

[xchrom]

17. Does anything, any 1 thing, ever, ever in any way

Surprise you - make you slap your forehead - and say 'GEE - I better come up w/ a thoughtful response to that!'

[Amerigo Vespucci]

22. My sister, now living in Colorado Springs, would say that

She has Fox News on her TV 24/7...it's the only channel she watches.

She's intolerant, bigoted, and...irony of ironies, her daughter (my neice) is gay. I only bring that up because she has opinions about gay people, too, and the opinions aren't as kind as the ones she has regarding her own daughter.

If my sister were computer literate (she is not) and knew of F.R., she'd be a freeper...guaranteed. She couldn't resist wallowing in the word gems of "like minded" fellow travelers.

We have not spoken since August 2003. She got her half of my mother's estate, took the money, went to Colorado Springs, and wrote me off for dead.

[Puregonzo1188]

23. Wow, I am really shocked this locked. Talk about a fail of the jury system.
