There you go again, define plenty. 1%? 5%? 25%? 50%? 75%? You conjure up a few examples and we're suppose to believe now that means there's plenty more where that came from? Regardless, the fact of the matter is profanity is not tolerated on FR and is not a hate site because of that.

Your posts try to imply that the hate site designation is justifiable because of what you claim are PLENTY of instances of profanity that FR posters post on FR. I merely called YOU on it that my experience says that is not the case. You and Metmom can nitpick, deflect, try to distract all you want, but I stand by what I said, a few examples of profanity does not make FR a profanity ridden hate site.

I NEVER said FR was a hate site. I don’t think FR is a hate site. I was not addressing my comment #8 to seekandfind who posted the article. I was posting my comment to chris_bdba who said you wont find curse words on FR. I was correcting this comment. I never got a chance to actually respond to the article because my character was attacked and I was busy defending it.

We haven’t nitpicked, deflected, or tried to distract. That is what YOU have been doing. I made a statement and I backed it up with EVIDENCE. I said there was profanity here and there is. I said I had seen numerous people post it and I have, most have since been deleted BECAUSE IT IS NOT TOLERATED HERE. There is no evidence to the fact that I have seen it numerous times, only the testimony of other who have seen it as well. The fact that you haven’t seen a curse word on FR is not proof that there hasn’t been (although you later admitted to seeing a few curse words). You need to take a logic course.

BTW, I don’t know how to give it a percentage. I have probably seen hundreds of posts with words which I consider profanity. It isn’t a huge percentage of the posts on FR but taken by itself 100 or so posts is plenty of posts.

No one ever said that. You're making that up.

There's plenty of foul language on this thread, and most of it is directed at you, because of your racist hate speech.

I am calling you out on it. You are quote mining, twisting and assigning motivations to other’s post on this thread.

I never implied that FR was a hate site. I conjured up a few examples to prove you wrong when you said there is no profanity on FR. You asked for that evidence and when I provide the evidence YOU asked for you try to turn it around and use it against me.
Your experience on FR is not proof that I am wrong. You said you haven’t seen profanity (although later you admitted that you had seen little profanity). Logically, what I say can still be true even if you haven’t experienced it. You are willfully ignorant of the truth at this point. Why don’t you google it yourself and see how many curse words you can find on FR. If these are the ones that got missed then LOGICALLY there WERE more where those came from since the Mods delete the ones that they find or that are reported to them. Of course, it is hard to argue logic with a person that doesn’t think logically. You are all feelings. I FEEL like you attacked FR because you told the truth. I feel like you think FR is a hate site because of what you said. This is a conservative site, if you want feelings maybe you should go on over to DU.
