18. FR's "statement"
I can't find any posting rules as such on their site, but here's a piece extracted (with long-handled tweezers and rubber gloves) from their Founder's "statement":

"Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is not a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our rights, defending yada yada yada..." (sic - or should I say sick)

Translation: dissenting views are not welcome. I think the tone implies just how unwelcome they are.
