Which is worse free republic or lucianne.com?
FR has the more vile extremist stuff, but occausionally, very rarely, freepers do exhibit the slimmest bit of individual thouht. Lucianne on the other hand is in 100% lock-step with the GOP and the posters have this laughable attitude of being intellectuals.

I'd say Lucianne by a hair, though they're both reprehensible.

Just the thought of Free Republic makes me want to take one of those Silkwood Showers.

11. The content of both is vile but the
web design is even worse. I get dizzy trying to follow the threads.

2. Freepers are more dangerous.
The sort of dangerous that comes from inbreeding, guns and sipping stump liquor.

The Lucianne types are just elitist tools. Not dangerous except when they are given power, which they have been.

5. I don't go to either one.
I'd consider it a colossal waste of time.

8. Protest Warrior is the worst of all
followed by Conservative Underground. I just took a peek over there and read some of their threads bashing our very lovely Ava. Absolutely disgusting human beings. Filthy pigs each and every one of them, and that's actually an insult to pigs. Free Republic is next on the list, but most of the time they're so stupid I just laugh at them.

mentioned like to try to get people in trouble. Yeah it was those asshats that sent my postings on here about me making Scalia look like a fool on the D.C. trip earlier this month, to the chair of the Political Science Department at the university I go to, in a failed attempt to get me in trouble. I don't even think they even qualify as human beings, since they are so far down on the evolutionary scale.

saying that he was going to try and get Ava in legal trouble for using pictures of soldiers in her animations without their consent. Said that he would be glad to ruin her entire life and that he was going to look in to doing just that. In addition to the fact that this moron clearly has no grasp of the Fair Use laws which allow people to use any copyrighted image for the purposes of criticism or commentary as long as there is no profit being made from it, what an absolute ass he is. I mean really, what kind of sick fuck gets off on ruining a young girl's life because her views differ from yours? These people are sick. They make me ashamed to be an American. Hell, they make me ashamed to be human.

Ava has nothing to worry about though, as I'm sure that dumb ass will soon find out. Hey Conservative Underground idiots! FAIR USE LAWS, look them up you retards.

On edit: I apologize to all retards for lumping you into the same category as these things.

9. If I Had A Choice Between Free Republic & Lucianne.com
Edited on Wed Apr-26-06 04:22 AM by Robbie Michaels
Free Republic is the more vile web site, but Michelle Malkin isn't far behind. Her web site posted a link to a Free Republic thread in which a member attended the cultural event at Chicano Park this past Saturday in my 'hood. "Wardaddy" posted pictures of the murals on the freeway abutments and http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1620198/posts?page=1">riduculed their meanings.

The title of this thread? San Diego Reconquista Gathering With Many Photos, The Future of America is Here (Pics)

In San Diego, we called this event the 36th Annual Chicano Park Day.

One glaring example of misinformation was http://www.chicanoparksandiego.com/murals/enlarged/fig48.html">this mural. In wardaddy's words, "Barrio Yes, Yankees No!.....one has to wonder why they came here is they are so unenamoured with Gringos(?).COMING TO A CITY NEAR YOU, IT WILL SPREAD IF OUR SPINELESS LEADERS GIVE AMNESTY. BANK ON IT"

The http://www.chicanoparksandiego.com/murals/yonkes.html">real meaning of that mural? "Varrio is a variation of barrio, neighborhood; and yonkes refers to junkyards. Thus, Neighborhood Yes, Junkyards No! Imagery within the mural depicts the Coronado Bay Bridge and National Steel. In the foreground, residents protest with their placards, Mas Casas, Menos Yonkes, More Houses, Less Junkyards, and La Unidrad Es La Fuerza, Unity is Strength. "Barrio Logan was rezoned. Junkyards began to move away."

Is this Free Republic thread racist? Sure. It's also ignorant of the facts and misleading the public. If you want the real story behind Chicano Park and the meanings behind the murals, http://www.chicanoparksandiego.com/index.html">click here for more information.

It's obvious Malkin and her mentally unstable followers didn't learn their lesson last week, but should we be surprised? Hell no. It's just another day of preaching their Gospel of Hate and Intolerance.

12. lucianne.com looks semi modern. FR looks like it got stuck in 1998.
Seriously the FR is so horrid I can't imagine the owner spends even one damn dime on it.
