Wow. You asked a simple question. You would think only a few would be unable to answer it. But the number of FReepers who could not answer this is amazing. Sad commentary on FReepers.

Kind of like the militarist leaders who had taken over the pre-WWII government of Japan asking their people if they were for war or disloyal......

I think questioning, researching, debating, and disagreeing are very healthy especially on a forum that has the following on its home page:
Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for INDEPENDENT, grass-roots conservatism on the web.

...Free Republic is not affiliated with any political party,
group, news source, government agency or anyone else.
What I do find sad* is that because some don’t come out in lock-step agreement with President Trump on an issue, out come the labels... a “Hippie” a “big giant pussy,” a “cut and run moron,”a “Dick Weed” a “Liberal” a “Troll,” and I am sure there are a few more names I missed...
This has happened here with the Healthcare bill and now this missile launch.
It is one thing to disagree with an idea—fine, but quite another to impugn fellow Freepers because they disagree on a position. Reminds me of back in early 2016 when when Trump supporters were under relentless personal attacks because they did not support Cruz...
Disagree with my position, but don’t call me a hippie, liberal, troll or worse because I don’t share your view.
I am trying to be A, at this point I am a B.
