Permaban Ron Paul haters on this forum - Vote Now

[dkim68]

When a member here turns out to be a blatant Ron Paul hating troll should they be permabanned immediately?

My Vote? YES.

Moderators can take care of them. No need to vote.

 

[dkim68]

Do they always though? Or must the trolls be reported?

How could Ron Paul supporters believe in such censorship?

 

[patawa91]

look if we start banning people, are we any better than Fox?? Let them come, and we'll debate them.

I am loyal to Ron Paul because I know of all the candidates he is the one who truly stands up for what he believes in. I hate the negative energy that the haters bring to this forum and the possible influence they might have on those just trying to learn more about Dr. Paul. If they are allowed to post hate thread after hate thread it gives newcomers the impression that Ron Paul is losing support. That's why I want them permabanned. It serves no purpose to debate them and just clutters up the forum with negativity.

no no no. half the time we think someone is a troll they really arent.

did anyone see that latest poll on here about how many people were called a troll or agreed with one? it was remarkable.

I believe in free speech, so of course not.

I voted yes for Ron Paul haters.

But if you banned the campaign haters, the forum would be emptied out.

I'm not voting on this shit. We're all upset from NH and pissed off. Now is not the time to talk about banning anyone.

I'm pissed off and want to ban everyone at this point.

No problem dkim68, vitriol can be funny.

So, we start losing and suddenly kicking people out becomes more popular? Not for me.

How does one define a "hater?" Who decides? The moderators?

I'm all for more freaking organization, it's entirely obvious that we need it, but we need an intelligent version of it. I've written e-mails about my hope for some organization to arise from the grassroots. If there's some moronic Huckabee supporter running amok in the forums, who cares? We'll figure it out! Hell, I could be on the Huckabee boards if I wanted to BS them a bit. I read the boards of the opposition sometimes because I want to be educated.

If there are idiots here, and I'm sure there are, remove the posts by a democratic process--let the members report them. I don't want to miss a revolutionary idea that could get Paul in. I want to know the enemy. I've always said, in regards to political correctness and censorship, that it makes the opposition more sneaky. I've come of age in a male profession with political correctness and fully believe that if someone could just say to me "you suck because you're female" that I'd be far more prepared and able to deal with it. With censorship and the PC sentiment, I don't really get to hear what people think and am less equipped to deal with it.

Am I hypocritical on this sometimes, sure. I want to shut people up who disagree with me. I don't want to hear that I'm wrong, I don't want to hear criticism. I don't want to hear that there are people who don't like me for reasons I have no control over, like gender, racial background or whatever. But am I ultimately better off for knowing? I believe so

Okay, end rant. I'm upset about NH and have no filter between brain and mouth right now. I'm not very motivated to be civil.
