I hope they don't use eminent domain to take my apartment as a "Fruit Fly Reserve."
How to spot trolls. They bunch up at the start of threads and do a "mob rules" type of tone: something that makes a real conservative feel uncomfortable.
They post endless articles that keep the site moving so quickly people who come here can't make connections with other conservatives.
IMHO these people are working together and they're being paid.
You don't think that's possible? Look what they've done in the past. They've sent fake letters to the editor (which I know for a fact) sent fake letters to our conservative representatives, (as a way to push them off track.) They've called Rush and Hannity and other conservatives saying "I've been a life long Republican and I voted for Bush, BUT ... and then proceed to trash all things conservative. (That's stopping now because Rush is on to them) These are coordinated acts. There nothing random about them starting or quickly ending.
I don't know who's paying FR trolls -- my first guess was the DNC. And that might have been true in the past - now, I believe it's the non-profits subsidized by powerful corrupt liberals. Powerful men with hunger for control - agendas way beyond the simple stories given to boys sitting at computers being paid to lie.
And a note to any troll reading this: If you are one of them, you need to know that people who pay you to lie to us, will also lie to you.
They've defined their morality. You're told the ends justifies the means - but your sweet, innocent ideas of "power to the unions" or "hate Walmart" or "stick it to the rich" or "end the war" or "more for the little guy" or "protection for every snail darter" or whatever they used to compromise you, is not, NOT, what they're after. Liberal fat cats are spending big money to stop conservative citizens from the right to assemble. And they're not doing it to protect your pet belief. You're a means to an end. And nothing more.
Anyone who knows of other ways to spot trolls, please add a comment....
Just damn.
If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
A fly. A FLY, PEOPLE!
Damn.
Great! NOW those evil developers can't take my land! I have a unique set of microbes that live on it! How precious!
A wife comes home to see her husband in the kitchen holding a fly swatter. He proclaims he has killed 4 flies....2 males and 2 females! She asks him how he thinks he can tell the difference between male and female flies. He replies, "I killed 2 on a beer can and 2 on the phone"!
A fly! The tyrants of the world are making their plans while we dedicate land to an endangered fly.
I thought BJC already had a lie-bury.........
How about spam? You know anything about that?
Why not follow the source link and read the story. It's real. Oh, and lay of the Jack Daniels before breakfast..
Knock it off!
I say rent a crop duster and spray the whole area with DDT.
As bad as the ESA is, it is good to see a market approach that preserves most of the value of private property.
But I wonder: How will the flies know they have boundaries to stay within? Are they fair game if they sneak out???
Well, when searching the internet for a flyswatter which would be more fitting to the article subject matter, I did chance upon this helpful tidbit of info. Who knows - it might apply to trolls too.!?!?!?
" In order to attack a small, flying insect in the air it is important not to push the pest away by a pressure wave of air created by something large..."
So, IOW, don't huff so hard...;-)
We've come a long way from "save the whales", haven't we?
Yeah, but now your local gov't can steal your land to set up a preserve for endangered mold spores.
