What would happen if we ALL signed up at freerepublic.com?

[Lakerstan]

What if we all just "invaded" that website, like we invaded Iraq? A completely coordinated process whereby a group of free citizens such as ourselves decided one day to simply join their message board.

By posting here, we're sort of preaching to the choir.
By posting over there, we could give them an education.

Merely a hypothesis...

[tblue]

1. I'd do it.

[physioex]

2. I think you would have better luck....

Trying to change the opinion of a Brick Wall. My whole political goals do not involve trying to change the opinions of others but rather to lobby for mine....

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

3. You would probably crash...

The Trash 80 it runs on.

[EFerrari]

4. Have you ever been to freakerville?

You might as well talk to a sack of groceries.

lol

[dchill]

14. I'd have to put my money on...

the sack of groceries, as far as getting through goes.

[cliffordu]

19. 'Specially if that sack of groceries has KITTY LITTER in it.

[Massacure]

5. They would just reset the website to a nearby backup like yesterday and disable new registration n/t

[MadrasT]

6. Probably a waste of effort, but...

it would be a riot.

[Kaleko]

7. LOL. Never been there but read horror stories here.

OK, I'm game.

:hi:

[yourout]

8. My blood pressure would spike........can't do it.

[firedupdem]

9. I wouldn't want them to come over here with their bigotry and bullshit...n/t

[K8-EEE]

10. They would ban you immediately BUT....

some of the people who post on there have blogs -- I've "infiltrated" one, LOL, OMG what idiots.

[FrenchieCat]

No ambience!

[dweller]

[Mind_your_head]

15. That's just dumb.

What would you hope to accomplish by that? - or would that just be wasting your and everyone else's time/energy? :think:

Also, what if freeper's decided to do the same thing to DU?
.
.
.
I'd bet that all two of them would be granite within a Manhattan minute. So what's the point/purpose/advantage?

None that I see.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

16. you'd get kicked off in about 5 minutes and

your ip would be blocked.

They don't allow liberals.

[physioex]

17. Not a big deal....

He could just go to a local library.

[FlyingSquirrel]

18. They haven't blocked ME yet!

:D

I'm sneaky.

[NNN0LHI]

21. Not if you end all your posts with "God Bless George Bush"

You can say anything then and no one will bother you.

Don

[LeftishBrit]

20. Our blood pressure would go up and our IQs would go down.

[foxfeet]

22. I'd spend all day cleaning puke off of my monitor and keyboard. n/t

[TexasLawyer]

23. They immediately tombstone "trolls"

I was tombstoned with my very first post there. I was young and naive, and I thought that my friendly, completely factual clarification regarding Al Gore's actual position on Iraq (complete with quote and website reference) would be a helpful addition to the debate.

Not so much. I was tombstoned, denounced as a "troll" and commanded to "go back to DU."

At the time I didn't know what "DU" was. "Depleted Uranium?" "Dartmouth University?"

I did a little further exploration... and that's how I ended up finding this fine web site!

[LeftinOH]

24. Wolverines!!!!!!!!11

[underseasurveyor]

25. Oh If I may say so... You assume we could give them an education..

Ya cant edumacate peeples dat cant reed gud or undurstand, if atall.

Besides it's smelly

[TooRaLoo]

26. not exactly dying to find out!

They're good for a laugh, but teh dum makes my head hurt.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

27. They ban any n00b who says anything even vaguely suspect.

And "vaguely suspect" can mean anything from disagreeing with them to agreeing with them too enthusiastically.

[samuraiguppy]

28. in 2004, I signed up

over there. One post and I was banned. It wasn't worth the trouble.

BTW--my screen name was "banned_troll"

[carlyhippy]

Carly

[Midlodemocrat]

30. Or sure you're not, you 'hippie'.

[carlyhippy]

32. LOL!

I'm not sure if I wanna be part of the invasion, from what I hear about it here it sounds like a scary, nasty land...I will check it out, tho and see what the hoopla is about

[Midlodemocrat]

35. Been there once and it took me a week to shake off the cooties.

:scared:

[carlyhippy]

34. O M G LOL I just came from there....read the religion board

[MiniMe]
