17. I thought it might take me to some confederate sympathizer site

which are always funny.

I was close.

[Canuckistanian]

6. It's a tag keyword on the "other board"

At first I thought it was a screen name.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

7. The HELL?

A Schiavo thread on Free Republic?

It's also a keyword of that thread and another, also about Schiavo. Must be going through some default search engine in Firefox. It's not a .com or .net or .org domain.

What's so strange about that? Other than the fact that the links are to the Freeper netherworld, yuch...

I remember on Seinfeld Crazy Joe Divola yelled that word as he jumped down from the audience onto the stage. It means, "death to tyrants."

9. It's what John Wilkes Booth shouted after shooting Lincoln.

10. Slogan on McVeigh's T-Shirt

Catch phrase for the right wing religious nuts was on the shirt sported by Christian terrorist Timmy when he attacked the govt building in OKC.

11. Freepers probably still hate Lincoln for ending slavery

The far-right considers property rights to trump human rights, so to them the abolition was "tyrannical" because it deprived the slave owners of their property. It sounds insane (and is), but I see that kind of people all the time on some other message boards.

18. they were probably think of John Wilkes Booth and Bill Clinton

but lacked the cajones to follow through on their Rush Limbaugh, neo-confederate wet dream.

15. Isn't it the slogan on the Virginia flag?

[tocqueville]

13. John Wilkes Booth shouted it after shooting Abraham Lincoln

Sic semper tyrannis is a Latin phrase meaning "Thus always to tyrants" or "Thus ever be to tyrants". It is the state motto of Virginia in the U.S. (and also that of the USS Virginia). The Seal of the Commonwealth of Virginia shows Virtue, sword in hand, with her foot on the prostrate form of Tyranny, whose crown lies nearby. The Seal was designed by George Wythe, who signed the Declaration of Independence and taught the Law to Thomas Jefferson.

Recommended by George Mason to the Virginia Convention in 1776, the phrase is attributed to Brutus at the assassination of Julius Caesar. According to some witnesses, John Wilkes Booth shouted it after shooting Abraham Lincoln in 1865. In his mug shot following the Oklahoma City bombing, Timothy McVeigh wore a shirt with a picture of Lincoln on it and "Sic Semper Tyrannis" written below.

In The Pilot, an episode of the American sitcom Seinfeld, the character "Crazy" Joe Davola shouts the phrase before attacking the main character, Jerry Seinfeld. The translation is later given, incorrectly, as "Death to tyrants".

16. I remembered it from John Wilkes Booth--I wonder what the freeper's

thought process was.

12. That's WEIRD!

I have a Google toolbar, and that's what I thought you may have meant. But I went ahead and pasted it directly into the (Firefox) browser window anyhow. It worked, although it wasn't a "legal" URL. I'm ALWAYS learning something new at DU!

14. It does a Google search automatically and picks the first result

when you type something other than a URL into the address bar.
