While the title says it all, I thought a goodbye was in order.
While I've been a FReeper for well over a decade, I must declare that it is time to part ways. While I have the greatest respect for a great many of you, the days where I can in good conscience remain silent about the issues that set me apart from the rest of FReeperdom have past. For clarity, or perhaps catharsis, I'm not entirely certain which, I'll lay them out on the table an call the ZOT™ down upon myself.
The racism: I just can't handle it anymore. FR has become increasingly racist since President Obama took office, and enforcement has dropped. Now, not a single crime can be reported with an "amish" comment, and I've yet to see a post express embarrassment or shame when lo and behold sometimes the perpetrators turned out to be lily white.
Homosexuality: FR is on the wrong side of history on this one, and I'll just leave it at that.
Mostly though, it's the hate. More and more posts reference violent solutions to political disagreements. Some subtly couched, others make no pretense. I wouldn't be surprised at all if I read in the morning paper that a FReeper murdered a federal bureaucrat or a federal judge.
I've learned so much, from so many of you, and for that I'm grateful. I genuinely and truly wish all of you well, and sincerely hope you all live out the rest of your lives in happiness.

The contentious issues you wish to avoid and wish were less contentious are the very issues that the left advances through government imposition and cause to be contentious. No one would argue about many of these things IF NOT for government imposing them upon the people.
Disagreement, the result of diverse opinion has always been the American way where freedom entails the right to not only voice disagreement but as well act disagreeably. That right is inalienable -endowed ALL by the Creator and one though often exercised with words unless limited by necessity to actions was fought for violently and will be fought for again if necessary. You do not like to hear about the sacrifice YET bemoan the loss?
The escalation you run from, the increasing violent rhetoric you feel uncomfortable reading about, the racism being discussed you abhor is all a result of a government increasingly attempting to do away with freedom.
You run now from words and as such I can imagine if ever action was required you would be found wanting.
Peace in our time for Melas? No thank you Melas, FR will not be your Czechoslovakia to sacrifice for a false peace.
-well stated.
You will be much happier at the Huffington Post.
Who’s the assclown?
Not any of us, we aren’t cryingin our beer over a prohomosexual agenda cheerleader.
NOR are we stamping our feet, screaming that FR must do things OUR way or else and then grabbing our dollies and running home.
That would be... you guys.
Tell me, what part of “The site owner can determine what he wants on his site” is so hard to understand?
If the site owner doesn’t want celebration of buggery on his site, that’s his right.
And all the little useless high fives and “Yay to us” posts like yours over Melas won’t be of any worth other than to amuse us with how stupid troll loving disruptors are.
Save the drag queen drama for RuPaul’s show, we don’t care.
5.56mm
You noticed that too?
Haven’t seen a rabbit foot in ages except on a live rabbit.
And that one was wiggling his ears at me as he hopped in circles around my feet.
The show off.
He’s lucky he’s cute and I am more concerned with the coyote.
I notice that LCF here woke up enough to respond to you but nobody else.
Apparently bleary eyes and bong water does that when you’re trolling.
Bravo, sir! Well stated!
BTTT
We have. And you've surrendered by declaring repetitively "It's over."
So why are you on an activist site?
Eloquent. Reasoned. Well done. I salute you.
I definitely do not support any pro homosexual agenda. Do not ever try to put me in that box.
The only agenda I support is the pro American agenda.
SURE you do.
Ask Melas what he supports.
It’s in his ‘article’.
You support him, and he supports it.
Again, the drama, it’s so dramatic!
Go cry over someone who supports the homosexual agenda elsewhere.
I’m sad that Melas left.
I’m not crying over it.
I support no homosexual agenda. I never have.
You are on a witch hunt.
Stop lying about me.
I’m not lying about you.
And if that infuriates you, too bad.
All of your posts in this thread have been hand wringing boo hoo posts over FR beign so horrible, melas is gone etc.
“Homosexuality: FR is on the wrong side of history on this one, and I’ll just leave it at that.” -Melas supports the homosexual agenda.
You support him.
“I wouldn’t be surprised at all if I read in the morning paper that a FReeper murdered a federal bureaucrat or a federal judge. “ -Melas doing leftists style wide eyed slander.
And you support it.
Dramaqueen.
I don't think FR is horrible and I haven't said so on this thread. If I thought FR was horrible, I wouldn't post here.
FR still has many great posters and I enjoy interacting with them and reading their posts.
I post new articles all the time. Does that sound like someone who hates FR?
I currently manage 3 ping lists. Does that sound like someone who hates FR?
Melas was NOT a good poster.
Again:
“Homosexuality: FR is on the wrong side of history on this one, and I’ll just leave it at that.” -Melas supports the homosexual agenda.
You support him.
“I wouldn’t be surprised at all if I read in the morning paper that a FReeper murdered a federal bureaucrat or a federal judge. “ -Melas doing leftists style wide eyed slander.
And you support it.
YOU SUPPORT IT.
Not ONCE have you denounced the BS Melas posted.
Instead, you have wrung your hands and told the rest of us we are horrible.
How about condemning Melas for his BS lies?
You won’t, because you are a liar.
