From what I have been reading recently, I'd like to comment. It's so very wrong, for anyone to attempt to make you out to be a racist. I know you are not, from reading your posts over the years. I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
I read the other forum. Nasty name calling. There are a few who go back and forth from here to there, then comment or agree. If that’s what they chose to do, it’s none of my business but it destroys credibility in my mind. It’s a website dedicated to bash FR in hopes it fails. They say things over there about JimRob and other Freepers that are nasty, just gossipy, some fowl mouth and lies. They take some threads or a poster to analyze and comment on, trying to be insulting and witty. Like they personally know the posters. That’s too weird. Not necessarily all of them but there is the majority there with that sentiment.
I would hope, those who do not understand or agree with points of views would just make their point and move on. I certainly understand there are times people need to be shut down with ignorant comments or mean racial comments. This is not the case here. Painting someone as a racist, trying to label them throughout the forum, getting others to followup, when the poster is not a bigot, is not the best part or finest moments on FR. That behavior is not a solution. It is not going to make this a better place.
The false accusations of you being a racist are the result of someone carrying a grudge against you for opposing them on a different subject. The WPPFF still have not gotten over the fact that the majority of people are opposed to the wholesale extermination of disabled people. They continue to flame supporters of Terri Schiavo. Then they run over to Clown Posse to brag about it. Race has nothing to do with it. That's just a convenient weapon used by the weak.
Is that the same soundstage they used for the lunar landings ;)?
With Carvile in mind, I was willing to believe it.
