Freeper response to Olbermann covering "Chad's Story"
Just when you don't think "they" can go any lower they do.

Not only is what Chad did a crime it chewed up 1000s of hours
of time of FBI agents who could be working on stopping real terrorists.


To: xtinct
Olbermann was PISSED that he couldn't snort the powder.

It wasn't harassment, it was teasing. Like waving an empty beer can at a drunk.

The first thing Olbermann grabbed was not a phone to call 911, but a 100 dollar bill to roll up...

1. .
I wonder what their reaction would be if it were one of their great heroes...like this thing called Coulter.
And I hope that Chad spends some nice years in prison. The agents must be pissed that they have to deal with idiots like this when they'd probably prefer to go after real threats.

3. Speaking of that Coulter thing...
It hasn't reared up its head and roared in quite awhile. Is it preoccupied with the felony charges of voter fraud pending against it? Anyway, it's been a relief.

8. correct me if I'm wrong -
didn't Coulter-geist say something like "someone should mail anthrax to ______..."

I know she recommends shooting "libruls"...

14. .
I only heard once what she said about blowing up the NY Times building so I googled for it.
The search results indicated that she herself sent fake anthrax mails as a joke?? At least she seemed to approve of things like this.

2. It wasn't harassment
It was terrorism.

Terrorism.

Not a joke, not a prank. Stupid, yes. Terrorism, Yes.

Maybe if this boy had a job he wouldn't have had so much free time to jack around and be stupid. Why was he living with his mother when this sorry SOB could have served our country in the armed forces?

Yes, I am aware he is 39, but in my humble opinion, anyone who lives off his mother in her home and has the time to do extremely stupid things is a boy. Mentally and emotionally a child.

Explains why so many at FR sound like moronic children.

I would bet a tour or two in the military would do wonders toward assisting their maturity.

That or a few years in prison being Bubba's bitch.

Guess which one Chad opted for.

Peace.

5. I understand your feeling about this but these "chad" types are not...
...suitable for the military. Idiots like these think a gun is just something that makes a big boom. Any "chads" in the military would likely kill more of our guys by accident than the other guys on purpose. Honest.

12. Actually......
Chad IS the type the military is looking for right now. They've exhausted the national supply of highly qualified recruits and are now taking the dregs of society under their wing just to satisfy recruitment goals. Felons, high school dropouts, the marginally sane....people that at one time would have been rejected immediately....these are now the bread and butter of today's military, the cannon fodder they so desperately need to prosecute Bush's war.

6. He's probably a repressed homosexual, still living at home with his mom
and thinking there is MORE under Mann Coulter's skirt than meets the eye!!

I think this is right up there with the shoe bomber.... it is internal terrorism!

35. hey, like Abu Ghraib, just frat pranks & a little "dunk" in the water
I know it makes me a bad bad liberal, but while I do not want any actual physical harm to occur to this FReek jackass, I wouldn't mind if the possibilities gave him a few sleepless nights.

7. LOL, "it's teasing"
That's like saying that waving an unloaded gun in somebody's face is "teasing". Only a sick f**k or a disturbed child would think so...which pretty well describes the cave-dweller mentality over at FR.

32. I don't feel sorry for them
But I'm not as far along the path as you. :)

Okey dokey here. I've been working on things re the links you supplied and making discoveries that have been rather mind-blowing in a good way. I'm hoping it isn't transitory, that it's progress and not a side-effect of some morsel I ate last week...and that I'm not jinxing things by mentioning it! Just setting it on cruise and going where it takes me. How're you?

33. i am in limbo lately.. trying to get a job thru a recruiter.. and i almost found a
Buddhist Group here in W-S, but apparently the web site was old.. ..

actually i see myself in the freepers, in the past i believed such foolish things..and was so proud of it.... The Buddhists call this world Samsara, nothing ever works out entirely like you want it too, Samsara is referred to as a world of suffering and the freepers are actually just suffering the consequences of ignorance, they think they are having such a grand time with the hi-five'n white guys... <that was a skit in an old comedy show.. really funny..

the 'Noble' part of the Four 'Noble' truths is that it is so rare that anyone sees it and tries to become selfless and help others.. and to free themselves of the illusion of the self. the 'concept of self' is the chains that bind beings to suffering.

people wonder why they are that way.. it is more like 'How' they are, i see them the same why i see a drunk on skid row wasting his precious life seeking alcohol.. a gang member seeking recognition from other miscreants.. a pathetic junkie lost in their addiction.. Donald Trump outsourcing a small town factory for another dollar, a politician campaigning on his support of the death penalty...it is all the same thing..differeint flavor.

the only thing one can do is improve one's self, while trying to do the right thing.. i view the world as indras web.. it is like an infinite 3D holo grid of intersecting lines and at each intersection is a mirrored sphere that reflects every other mirrored sphere.. and when we improve ourselves or do a good thing it reflects in every other sphere and changes them a little bit.. if you believe in reincarnation it means more having infinite time to deal with it.. the old Indra story described it as a spider web rotated 180* stretching into infinity with a dew drop at each intersecting line reflection the other drops

reincarnation on a Buddhist level is actually like a being having their particular load of negative karma, and when they die they leave behind some of the weight thru actions and intension's, and hopefully didn't pick up more than they lost.. so there is an end to it.. the Noble Eight Fold path is simply a method of living so as not to pick up any more negative karma. each being is actually a Buddha, hidden under the load of negative karma.. it is like they just got lost or caught up in Samsara.. i look at it as a cosmic addiction of some sort. we have to go thru rehab, of some sort before we are allowed to the next step. Meditation is the KEY out of here.

i have a technical recruiter helping me write my resume and sending it out to factories.. i dont think i can wait anymore on him.. i do have some outstanding electronic certifications, i worked for Boeing Space and Communications.. i worked on the F22, C17 and Delta3 & Sea Launch Rockets
i repair damaged and failed circuit boards.. i can save them a lot of money. will probably end up and McDonald's

37. These things are sent to try us
So says the Christian bible and Buddhism (and probably many other belief systems). But where the bible says faith in God will see you through the test, Buddhism says look in the mirror for your strength and learn from whatever life hands you. One looks to the external, the other the internal.

Your skills would be greatly wasted at Micky D's, but you'd come out stronger for the experience...if it comes to that. Take it on yourself, brother, and handle it with aplomb!

Yes, way too easy for me to say. I'd throw 100 conniptions if I was facing the choice of a job at McDonald's or continued unemployment. I'd really have to be facing -- as the Repugs would put it -- "food and home insecurity" to even consider it. But I do know what the proper way to respond to the test would be: Put on a smile, really mean it, and do what you have to magellan.

This all feeds back into what you're saying about how what we do changes things elsewhere, even minutely. "Hurricanes and Butterflies", right?

I'll have to think about whether or not my not feeling sorry for freepers effects the great tapestry. Meanwhile I send positive thoughts in your direction, and if there's any little thing I can do to help lemme know. Hopefully things will get better quickly on the work outlook front with the Dems in charge.

What is the purpose of sending "white powder" to someone
if not to terrorize them?

13. I'm curious what this guy looks like...if he has a girlfriend,
what kind of car he drives, employment history, etc.

Because frankly, and I think most anyone would agree, a man who is 39, unemployed and lives with his mom (Does the man have a father?)can only be described as a loser.

Did he maybe just fall on hard times between jobs? Could he not work because of health issues? He seemed to have decent background in electronics, shouldn't be too tough to find something. I mean as a republican, he should be all self-actualized and certainly not dependant on anyone else for support, right? Who paid for his medical care? Obviously he wouldn't use Medi-cal because that would be like socialism.

21. I would describe myself as an 'active voter' not a 'compulsive'
one, as he did. That should be a clue there all by itself.

BTW, 'active voter' is the way my community lists us when you pull a full voters list from the Town Clerk.

38. Sounds like the embodiment of everything we imagine freeps to be
Including the bizarre, probably sexual obsession towards Coultergeist and Mugwai Malkin.

I'm shocked the freeps haven't claimed this is all made up yet.

for his failure to police his band of brownshirts
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1738800/posts?q=1&&page=1

Unfortunately, looks like this guy did have an FR account. And even more unfortunately, we had not caught him yet. Chasing down Marc Costanzo's IP address and other Internet footprints, looks like he had at least four earlier FR accounts, each of which had been banned. He was a "retread troll." It happens.

4 times banned, but zero proof. Where's the proof Jim?

You banned so many, how hard is it to fish out 4 names from your turd barrel?

posters down-thread would like to know what he was banned for previously, yet crickets chirp.

23. Interesting. I wonder how quickly FR will turn on their
"prankstering hero", when he is sent off to jail? It's interesting that the FR republican base has no problem wasting hundreds of Homeland Security man hours on a "prank". Now that it is alleged that he has been banned several times, they are chirping that he is just a bad apple. :rofl:

27. FR banning
Quickest way to get banned over there is do like I did, say that Israel did something wrong.

Which also got a friend (Postal Worker with a Gun) banned there, and he is a retired military Middle Eastern expert. He would not know anything about combat ops either, that MoH,3 Purple Hearts, 2 Silver Stars and the other medals are just for show.

Several "posters" over there asked this question ...

To: Jim Robinson
I read earlier that he also posted on DU. I wonder why Olbermann didn't mention that?

Radar Online mistakenly gave that impression with their poorly worded report early on. That was not the case. Get over it. He was one of yours, four times over. He sent a money order to Katherine "Spunk and Moxie" Harris. No DUer would have wasted the funds by sending them to her.

It's called "hillbilly heroin," after all. If a meth lab were found on his property, he'd be immortalized.

30. It wasn't a real crime, it was just "teasing?" It became a federal crime when he used the US mail.
If those freeps walk into a bank and wave a toy gun at a teller while passing her a threatening note, they're in huge trouble. That "teasing" will land them in prison. At the very least, there will be charges of attempted armed robbery, toy or no toy.

But let the freeps keep defending their good friend. It'll help the agents involved determine who may have helped Chad/Marc/Jeff in any way, no matter how small. Terrorism must be stopped and support for it seems to be running rampant on the freep boards these days. Unreal, not to mention despicable and un-American.

36. I saw that last night
They're coming even more unhinged every day. Their justification for their fascism has always been that they're in the majority. They're not dealing well with the truth.

So is anyone asking Rush why he lied supporting Bush for all those years? And exactly how much of the average show is lies?
