BS: Freepers warmongering targets Europe

Today looking for RAF aircraft pictures on the net I found several nice collections of several kinds of aircraft, all in RAF display colors and formations flying. Just one of my hobbies... well

On one page I found no pictures but what appears to be political news group. Based in California - I used think hippies and artists ran that State - the FreeRepublic community exists, it appears, to save all that is good, at least what they think is good, about the US way, as opposed to what is bad, i.e those other nasty people, the foreigners.

Don't even think for one minute that their debt to the source of progress in the USA, and come to think of it, virtually everywhere else on the planet for the last several centuries, Europe, gives them even the slightest grounds to think before they open their ignorant, arrogant mouths to insult and abuse everthing that is good there.

According to these folks, Europe and everything European is vile, out of date, wrongly conceived, doomed to failure and other endless moronic bleatherings of one kind or another.

Not only is Europe's new experimental political system doomed to failure - as if they could know that ... - the Freepers having gotten Rumsfeldt to expend US tax dollars on wrecking two referendas, France and Holland in order to derail the Europeans attempt at finaly creating a democratic gaurantee for peace on that continent, they are now busy finishing off their hate filled program for our complete anhilation by proposing that because Europe's air defence is rubbish, we should wipe them off the face of the earth. Besides according to the freepers, these people are ' dummycrats '.

Where have I read of such arrogance before? How about Napoleon, or later Adolf Hitler?

I wonder do these people imagine that after having started WW3 with Europe - which BTW possesses a surplus of nukes -, the Russians would simply watch and wait in line for a similar visit? Or are they even more stupid than that?

What about China? would China lay down and wait behind Russia?

I don't think so!

Besides while the old Cold War technocrats in the USA spent the equivalent of large nation's entire worth on a dizzying array of war planes, the Brits quietly developed and perfected just one plane. That vechicle, it could not at the time be called a fighter aircraft, not only would out fly the entire output of the US defence collosus, it could shoot down the entire US Air/Navy/Army airforce in a few hours and not lose a single plane.

Now if the Brits achieved that, what makes these idiots in California imagine that anything has changed? Do they think that Europeans are so busy being - Freepers words - 'libtards' that they stopped inventing and improving their technology?

It is time the rest of the people of the US let these lunatics know that they do not speak for us, and that they are a very very small minority in this democratic country - despite and I must add - especially because we appear to have had two rigged elections for the Presidency.

So I say good luck to Europe and its democratic Union, we here in the USA celebrate it, we do not begrudge Europe anything.

Here's some advice. Stay away from surfing the internet for a while. Go to your local library or book store and get some books on RAF aircraft.

Click ici, oh nameless one, and see for yourself why the USA would be making a terrible mistake if it attacked the Europeans.

I think the Freep movement is about as serious or important as the old John Birch society; you can always find a cluster of nots if you walk around in the forest long enough.

From the Wikipedia article on the Freeps:

"Free Republic, like many politically oriented sites, does not seek to be a board that represents all political viewpoints, but those to the right of the political center, on issues concerning America. Articles posted which contain unwelcome reports or views (usually liberal) are customarily ridiculed and tagged with the words BARF ALERT after the headline. The "BARF ALERT" has two purposes: to warn readers in advance of news or opinion articles running counter to the prevailing perspective of the site's intended audience, and to protect the poster by distancing him- or herself from those views or news reports. [10]
Another common term is ZOT! which refers to the banning of a user for posting unwelcome material or for making comments which a forum moderator then uses as a reason or excuse to ban. The moderators on Free Republic often ban, without warning or explanation, posters who criticize Israel, the 2003 invasion of Iraq or the operation in Afghanistan, Catholic complaints about the Catholic Church (on the religion forum), or who express any opinion which diverges from the site's political purposes, or that of a particular forum moderator. Ample examples exist of criticism of the President and Congress for not being sufficiently conservative or living up to the group's ideals. Generally, the amount of latitude one has to express his views expands significantly as he becomes better known on the site, establishes relationships with other users, and provides evidence of adhering to the rules and stated goals of the site and its owner, although this is no guarantee against a banning if one runs afoul of a particular forum's moderator. If banned in one forum, the member is banned from the entire site. There is no warning system on Free Republic, and no explanation is required to ban a user. It is not a 'democracy', and there is no provision for appeal. A poster becomes aware that he has been banned when he attempts to post or reply on Free Republic and is instead presented with the notice: "Your posting privilege has been revoked."[citation needed]
Free Republic was virtually unmoderated (with the exception of the efforts of Robinson himself) in its early years, but they alledge they are frequently targeted by "moles" from rival liberal talkboards, such as Democratic Underground [citation needed]. As a result of this, Robinson asked several of the more trusted long-term members to volunteer as moderators in 2002. The moderators have the power to delete offensive content, including entire threads, and to suspend an account's posting privileges -- pending review and possible banning by Robinson."
