"To: Fierce Allegiance
It's a shame that most pro-lifers lack the courage of Eric Rudolph.

Edited on Mon Jul-18-05 09:43 PM by tyedyeto
To say It's a shame that most pro-lifers lack the courage of Eric Rudolph. is the sign of someone who needs to be investigated. Pro-lifers believe in not taking a life, but will slay anyone who stands in thr way of their beliefs. Oxymoron? Of course. Kill those who stand in the path of 'righteousness'? Assholes, every one of them!

50. What's the difference between the two?
Mohamed and God. Just a difference as to name. Could be also called Buddha or The Great Spirit. Fundies are fundies no matter what religion is being talked about.

And terrorists are terrorists... doesn't matter if you kill 1 person or 3,000. They are still taking lives in the name of their 'God'.

10. Someone needs to grab Michelle Malkin (Metaphorically speaking) and
shove her face into that link so she can see true terrorist supporters.
She's been prowling DU (or hired her husband to do it. Hell, he practically writes all her columns) for any "proof" that we support terrorists,
and then quotes us out of context, giggling with maniacal glee when she finds someone who might have said something that, if taken completely
out of context, would construe support for terrorism.

I'm not holding my breath.

12. Sorry.
I can't bring myself to go there. You'll have to tell me: Are they claiming that Rudolph's actions were intended to save more innocent lives in the long run? That's about the only internally consistent argument I can think of that one could make, and even that isn't very intellectually honest.

Or are they just soulless ghouls who revel in carnage and Old Testament-style vengeance?

Or both?

13. Lots of these fundies believe if work at a woman's clinic, you
deserve to be bombed and killed!

I worked with an Atty. who was running for judge in Tx. Of course, every at the company was assumed to be voting for him. One day, he was just BSing, and he said ALL people assciated with abortion deserve to die!

Well, thank God for a secret ballot! Many many of his fellow employes foted for his opposition!

14. Why was Eric Rudolph let go with a slap on the wrist..
Edited on Mon Jul-18-05 04:35 PM by nine30
Down there in the south if you

1) are white, and known to have killed a white, OR
2) black, and suspected of being in the vicinity of a crime where the
victim was white, you will be

1) fried /electrocuted or
2) gassed, or
3) strung from a tree or
4) strapped to a gurney and have a poison dart jabbed into your arm.


So why was this self confessed killer let go ? Perhaps the Jury was sympathetic to his cause ?

52. There was no jury. Plea bargaining and a judge
supposedly for telling them where he hid his stash of dynamites - somewhere in the mountains, so that others won't "stumble" on that and use it.

20. I saw many condemning his actions as well.
I saw many people in that thread condemning his actions as well. I think its important for us progressives not fall into the same trap many conservatives have, namely sounding ignorant by stereotyping everyone who subscribes to political ideas that you disagree with. I saw a lot of posts on that board condemning Rudolph's actions and condemning the people who supported him. I think that's just as noteworthy as the people who were supporting him.

my 2 cents.

21. The fact that about 50% of them support the terrorist says it all!
And that is the fact of the matter.

The fact that Jim Robinson does not remove all of their accounts and posts says it all.

FR supports the acts of the terrorist.

27. It says a lot... i agree...
but it shows that there is diversity of thought. that's a key thing to be aware of when engaging conservatives. they are not all the same. you're not going to get any converts by lumping moderates together with extremists.

29. It shows nothing of the sort
The owner of FR supports terrorism because he does not pull the posts in support of the terrorist.

Nothing more needs to be said about it. There is no diversity of thought so long as any post supporting Rudolph is allowed to stand on the site.

I agree with you. If the site admins do not care if their site is being used for promoting terrorisn (and what Randolf did is terrorism), then that site should be considered a terrorist website.

40. Since when does "diversity of thought" include supporting terrorism?
There's plenty of lively discussion at DU, but those supporting illegal violence do not last long.

The fact that the terror supporting Freepers have not been quashed says a lot about that board. If there are any Old Style Conservatives still around, they don't post there.

26. I really and truly hope that this does not surprise anyone here.
If this surprises anyone, then, frankly, it is time for you to WTFU.

I don't need to go to freeperhell to know what they are saying about Rudolph.

The RW in America is largely comprised of hardcore, ignorant, lunatic, - and extremely dangerous nazi-like individuals.

(Yeah, I know, the all-knowing "internet god" says if we use the "N" or the "H" word we automatically lose the debate. Well, that is just so much bullshit.)

RW America is a hate group fully capable of becoming a fascist lynch mob, gleefully rounding up and murdering innocent individuals without remorse.

Ignore this at your, and my, and our families', peril.

32. When about half of DUers seek to understand the conditions of terrorism
Edited on Mon Jul-18-05 05:08 PM by alcibiades_mystery
The Freepers explode into a froth. Needless to say, only the most fractional margin of DUers ever actually say that the terrorists' cause is just, or their actions justifiable. But when half of the Freepers say precisely that about a Christian Identity terrorist, the others barely raise an eyebrow. They are a fucking sick joke.

Here's a picture of Alice Hawthorne, the innocent American murdered by the Christian Identity terrorist Eric Rudolph at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, when Rudolph set off a bomb in a crowded square, in an American city:



Freepers make me fucking sick.

37. Anyone who thinks "pro-lifers" are only interested in prosecuting doctors,
and not women who seek or have abortions, should read some of the ravings in that thread.

Give these fucknuts control, let them appoint another SCOTUS judge or two (which they are about to do, actually) and any woman who uses the birth control pill, or an IUD, will be liable for charges of murder of any potential speck-sized "citizens" in her uterus... and, to hear freeperville tell it, such women should get the death penalty.

56. You tell them, impeachdubya
We now have pharmacists who are denying birth control prescriptions to women because they could cause an abortion. Who is going to support all these children on minimum wage in this country? Not the repugs, they are denying benefits left and right for those who didn't abstain from sexual activities.

Women's rights have not been in such jeopardy since I became an adult many, many years ago.

Edited on Mon Jul-18-05 06:22 PM by Enraged_Ape
Anyone who sets up a bomb to explode and kill people while they run away to safety is about the most miserable kind of coward there is. I say ABOUT the most miserable coward there is, because the MOST miserable cowards are the pathetic little snivelly cowards that would look up to or admire such a coward--and there, ladies and gentlemen, you have Freepers.

The abortion issue is just a excuse really. A very misinformed one at that.

They believe in fiction in order to justify killing. In they end, they just want to kill, so they blame the woman for killing first.

These people really are messed up!

46. Survivalist training involves dumpster diving for old donuts

One news article said, "Rudolph spent more than five years on the run in the North Carolina wilderness, employing the survivalist techniques he learned as a soldier. He was captured in 2003 while scavenging for food behind a grocery store."



My password for the Free Republic still functions but my posting privileges have been revoked. I guess posting that I was glad the French had the backbone to stand up to Bush was too much for them.

To: republicofdavis
I understand your detestation for this woman, but sure hope that something I'm now doing legally doesn't become illegal with retroactive application of the law. In fact, I believe that would be unconstitutional.

I think Goebbels' attorney was preparing the same argument.

Murder is murder, no matter what color of law is applied to it. There is no excuse nor statute of limitations.
