FREE REPUBLIC SPONSORED HARRASMENT
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/947970/posts

Dallas Boroff gets up early every morning to raise the American flag hanging from his balcony.
He has done it ever since he moved to Milstead Village Apartments in Kennesaw almost two years ago.
And he said he intends to keep doing it, with or without the permission of the apartment managers.
Boroff received a letter from the property manager last Friday telling him that flags are not permitted on apartment balconies or patios. The letter also asked him to take down the flag by Wednesday.

etc, etc, etc.

The actual story can be read here:

Normally, I could care less what freepers do but when these mouth breathing yokel fuckheads start getting the abortion-clinic frenzy and post names, addresses, phone numbers and calls to action like,

-Let others know that the complex is run by anti-Americans.
-Keep me informed if we need to go down to their entrance and make sure potential new tenants know who their landlord it.
-And go the the motorcycle shops...especially Harley! Helluva lot of ex- Nam vets out there on scooters and they LOVE to congregate over issues like this!

It pisses me off. And it scare me a bit. Who knows what one of those freepholes are capable of?

1. Yes! This is scary to me as well. Is it legal?
...."-Let others know that the complex is run by anti-Americans.
-Keep me informed if we need to go down to their entrance and make sure potential new tenants know who their landlord it.
-And go the the motorcycle shops...especially Harley! Helluva lot of ex- Nam vets out there on scooters and they LOVE to congregate over issues like this!...."

Calling out the motorcycle troops to harass?? Is that what this is?

3. Free Republic has so much support
From Free Republic:

"Totally off-topic, but did you know that only about 1,000 people contribute to keep Free Republic up and running? That is out of over 100,000 registered users on this site. "

4. How do you become an ex-Nam vet?
I'd probly be interested in doing that.

Is it anything like becoming an ex-Jew?

13. You die ~ I don't think you would be interested
When you die you are an ex everything, otherwise once a vet always a vet.

5. relax, theyre pu$$ies.
I can tell you for a fact, they number so few, and are so cowardly you have a better chance of a landshark attack. Sure they are the epitomy of rudeness, ignorance and very often clinical insanity, BUT they are toothless lying retards, and that shouldnt threaten anything but their family members dignity. When 6 of these crazy wanna be fascist name calling whackos show up to protest 1500+ antiwar marchers, you kind of have to feel sorry for them. Especially when they inflate their numbers by some random factor when they describe their "noble" actions. Now, IF you had a system of justice, you might be able to hold them accountable for their bad judgement and inconsiderate invasions of privacy etc, but you dont. I think you might be better off worrying about the lack of said justice system than the presence of a handful of hillbillies online. Bad enough their environment is so polluted they have to hang around here pretending to be something they arent. sad sad sad.

7. Oh, but even pussies grow bold when they don't fear getting caught
Look at what was done to African-American from 1877-1968 (and after) done mostly by Freepers who had no fear of getting caught.

That what Nazism/Totalitarianism is all about. Cowards and weaklings CAN become bold under the right circumstances, especially when their activities are implicitly or explicitly approved of by the Amerikan Imperial Government.

9. those are Klansman, dont insult them by comparison
many similarities, hiding behind a mask or monitor, but you wont find freepers with the balls to do anything nastier than name call. they dont even have it in them to freep polls anymore. theyre dead and soon to be buried. Celebrate the facts rather than empower the myth.
Come to Fresno, I'll introduce you to their fearless leader, wheelchair Jim. Maybe he'll call you a NAZI too? Did me. All I could think was, maybe he would know, but he's just a nutzi like the rest, totally inept and powerless. It is the politicians who would join them you need to worry about. They exist, and they have power. It must be wrested from them. keep your eyes on the ball.

16. Hey, hey now, there are some "hillbillies" here at DU to....
Edited on Thu Jul-17-03 06:10 PM by Rebellious Republica
I know, I am from Shepherdsville,Kentucky(I am sure you are familiar with the town motto "Where men are men and sheep are scared". I also know of two other kindrid Kentuckians posting on this site. Even hillbillies have more (Whats that northerner term) chutzpa (or something simular) than that! By the way I am now living in the land of Prince JEB. ;-)

:toast:

6. I know EXACTLY what they are capable
Of carrying out orders from their Masters through Party-Approved Sub-Media Goebbels v2.0 without question, remorse, a moment of thought, conscience, or doubt.

They are, in the end, capable of very nearly the same thing as the Monsters who's minds were eaten away by Goebbels v1.0.

Don't be caught by surprise like a German Jew in 1935. The arrows leading towards Totalitarianism are neon (dimmed only by the wretched remnants of the Old Republic currently giving some slight fight over the WMD bullshit), and there are now enough unquestioning Brownshirts (who, I think would have been quite pleased to be known as "Hitler's Dittoheads", I think) to carry out whatever atrocities the Busheviks want them to. They also have established lanes of Command and Right-Wing Sub-Media outlets to set up a clarion call.

Of course it will be in response to a "provocation" like the "Poles" who "attacked" Germany, causing Hitler to preemptively invade.

Know what they are. Know where you now live. Know what ANYONE who purposefully abandons conscience and reason and thought in order to WIN WIN WIN is capable of.

They are coming, I think, it's just a matter of when and having the Korean War generation pass away.

10. youre doing their dirty work
they are nothing except what you make them out to be. I invite you again to see them for what they are, a microscopic number of brain dead hillbillies who can only embarass their associates. Politicians though can sometimes take refuge in their sheltered shelter, and that is what you must shine light on. Their values are sick, twisted and unAmerican. they have no power, and no abilities. It is the religious fundy terrorists who deserve the credit you are misdirecting.

12. Freepers are like the cowardly lion
They sit behind their monitors and threaten the world but they never have to back up their big mouths because of their names are never posted.

A few years back they put my name and address on their board because they said I was "monitoring" their posts. All I did was notify people when they made bullshit statements about them or threatened them. They got the city wrong on my address but I wished they would have come and tried to intimidate me or something. I had fantasies that I would be the one to shut their obnoxious asses down.

15. It would be an interesting comparrison on how many Nam vets are here
compared to there. I really believe most Nam vets are no where near as confrontational as the Freepers are at least from their computers. Surviving the Nam has a way of tempering one's politics. IMHO anyway.

17. Anybody bother to ask the apartment owners as to WHY?!?!?!
Knee-jerk reactions like these that the freepers do will get nobody anywhere.

Ask why they're not allowed. Maybe there's a valid reason.
