FR has never been a public place.
Free speech is not protected in non public places. Posting in FR or LF is a privilege.
Why shouldn't the wheel chair veggie have a say in a forum owned by him?

If the human carrot hates a libtard like you, he can't be that bad of a carrot.

RimJob has a right to help Hillary by pushing that sure-loser Trump. This is America, where your right to do dumb shiite is protected in the US Constitution/BOR.

Yep, and it inclues letting a dumb shiite like hondo68 spout his drivel.

The 1st amendment doesn't apply to his forum anymore than you havethe right to flap your Paultard shit in my house. You'll say what I let you say in my house or I'll toss you out the front door before I open the door.
Yet... you spin your yella bullshit about the loss of rights that never applied in the first place.

Sure he can.
He can do whatever he wants in his house.
Of course, if one day he says Bush is a coke head and the next day he praises Bush, and then spouts other unintelligible beliefs, and wants to charge large sums of money to enter his house, it is my right to make fun of him.

JR invited me into his house back in 1998, and I stayed there, exercising my rights to free speech until 2005, or thereabouts, when he started getting sick in the head.
If I ever accepted an invite to your house,(doubtful) I'd say what I pleased, -- till you asked me politely to leave. -- If you weren't polite, I'd kick your ass on my way out..
That's the way it is, in real life. -- Which , of course, you wouldn't know.

If you need to be told to leave, then it won't be politely. You'd go from talking like an asshole to waking up in the local hospital. Just be lucky you're alive.

As I said, it's really doubtful that I'd accept an invite to a house like yours, but I, and a LOT of others, did accept JR's, -- to his forum, to discuss the affairs of the day and to exercise our rights to speak freely.
After a few years, JR started banning people for their political opinions, no matter how reasonably they expressed them. --- That's when I, and a lot of others, gave up on him.
His physical disabilities got the best of him, and affected his mental health, imo..
You too should see a shrink..

I believe the author of the article recognized that. His objection was to his fundraising page which stated, "We are beholden to no political party,” and “... we are fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly.”

Probably one reason he is so gaga over Trump, since the Trumpster looks to welcome Rudy the cross-dresser to the "team".

The salary for Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Baily clowns ranges from $85,000 to $92,000 a year.
The rodeo clowns who distract bulls so riders can get away safely from them earn about $51,000 a year.
Donald Trump’s yearly salary is $476,500,000.
With that kind of income, I certainly would never call Trump a clown.
But give me a 476 million dollar a year in income and you can call me a Otto Griebling.
Otto Griebling was the prolific and influential Master Clown with the Cole Bros. and Ringling circuses. He was single most admired and respected American circus clown of the 20th century. Oh, what a shocker for you to learn that a clown can be admired and respected … after your failed attempt to make a disparaging remark.

Well, if you contribute to the site thinking you have the freedom to speak plainly, criticize Trump, and then get banned ... yeah, I'd say that was a fraudulent extortion of money.

Some people are so afraid of or incapable of independent thought and independent speech that there is no way to help them,so they become cops.
They only thrive in group-think situations,and they are only comfortable working in packs.
Freedom scares them,rules make them feel safe,warm,and comfy,and enforcing rules when the odds are in their favor and they are the only ones with weapons makes them feel like the big boys their mommies told them they were.

I could not accept the job because I would have trouble comprehending a person’s life as a closeted transsexual. I have read the thing to understand about the life of a closeted transsexual is that they are endlessly posting stupid pictures and cartoons on a forum captioned with snide remarks.
Another problem I would have accepting the job is that I would constantly be grasping for clues regarding what kind of behavior to expect from a closeted transsexual during his nerve-wracking struggle to fit in. Perhaps you can help me. Do you find your natural inclinations on how to act are wrong for you in your perceived gender life? When these “wrong” things come out for you, is it simply an awkward silence or sometimes mockery?
Perhaps the biggest problem I would have in dealing with a closeted transsexual is the consequence indirectly implied above … that is self- loathing. By the way, how are you handling your problem with this?
Hopefully this helps to explain why I could not accept the job and at the same time make your coming out aspect more understandable to those in your life.

Perhaps you should direct your questions to Ghouliani - he seems to be the one with gender-identity issues.

I just checked my pings and that obviously in not the case. I only see my most dedicated fans, LF’s very own Three Stooges, still following me around and hanging onto ever word I post, so intently focused on me. Shucks … it feels good to be so highly admired.
