It's called PC.

[Catspaw]

Is a bulletin board from the National Alliance a legitimate news source? If you do, you may be on the wrong forum.

[aristeides]

I believe that information from every source should be processed. If a source is of doubtful reliability, that fact is to be taken into account in deciding whether the information it provides is true. If I understand this thread correctly, the information in this case happens to be correct.

I'm unfamiliar with the site. I take it it's neo-Nazi. I'm not in the habit of visiting such sites. However, even less am I in the habit of censoring information.

Did you or did you not ask for the poster's source in this case?

[Catspaw]

The poster had more information than in the story. I expected the poster to know the rules of Free Republic and not post a link to a neo-Nazi site. You do agree that posting a link to a neo-Nazi site is verboten under Jim Robinson's rules, don't you?

[Catspaw]

I'm sorry. I forgot to add that the link to the neo-Nazi site was posted without a warning. It could've been prefaced with, "this is a neo-Nazi board I read. I got the information from there." It wasn't. It was just posted as a link. I expected it to be a newspaper. It surely wasn't.

If you'd like, I can send you a freepmail with the post.

Maybe he downloaded a song from the internet

I honestly can imagine this happening. The RIAA already wants to charge internet users a fee through ISPs, and now copyright protection has just been extended. I support the right of creators to profit, but this is ridiculous. Copyright violators are not on the level of terrorists.

To judge by these postings in the Readers' Forum, the readers of Leesburg Today are not happy about the raid.

I did a search, and the D.C. papers seem not to have reported the search.

All four of them. What's the circulation of the Leesburg paper?

What's the circulation of the Leesburg paper?

I don't know. It came up while I was doing a google search for stories on the raid.

yawn

[Catspaw]

Hey, Bud, you go right ahead and post articles and links to the National Alliance. In fact, I encourage your to do so. Your time here will be indeed limited and you won't be missed.

[RIGHT IN SEATTLE]

I was tired of your tripe..........as a matter of fact.!

[Catspaw]

Of course you are. But you were cheering on a poster who posted a link to a neo-Nazi board, against Free Republic rules and with a warning to those who clicked through & gave a neo-Nazi site more hits. It does show where your sympathies lie.

So again, if you want to post articles and links to neo-Nazi groups, be my guest.

[RIGHT IN SEATTLE]

to All leave Catspaw alone, or you will be turned in

I'm going to bed..............

lets talk weather tomorow.:)

:)

[Catspaw]

Sure--and we're out of the deep freeze for a day. Of course, it's snowing.

Anybody have a pic of the Nazis being zapped at the climax of Raiders of the Lost Ark? It would be the perfect "ZOT!" for this clown.
