Ain't that special?

Can you imagine any of us posting that?

And WE'RE the "haters"?

edit: add a .gif to the link if you want to see it.

Some people have taken offense to the picture being here.

2. That little image is the only time
Bush has ever kicked anyone's ass in his life. But he's tough! He's resolute!

3. really now what is the fucking point?
What is the fucking point to post some shit like this at this time? Were you the kid that pulled the fire alarm in middle school to get off on the chaos that ensued? Posting this bullshit serves no purpose.

5. Know your enemy.
This is exactly what the RW has planned for liberals. Remember, last month Ann Coulter called for taking baseball bats to liberals.

7. Thank you for being so reality based
Eveyone here thinks that Evan Bayh is going to "talk them out of it."

8. I live and work with the enemy every day.
I know these ignorant fucks well. I know how chickenshit they are and I do not think this photo serves any purpose. It is like forcing the surviving members of a bloody car wreck to watch an intstant replay of their tragic event on tv ad nauseum.

9. Yeah, except you're not being forced.
Grow up.

This stupid graphic is NOTHING compared to how I feel about the election.

14. point taken
Forgive me. One question. If you are as upset as you suggest why root around freeper sites for this shit?

20. Yahoo is not a freeper site.
Yahoo is a free-for-all on their message boards. The most deranged freeper types posting the most repulsive crap you've ever seen against a bunch of beleagered but dogged and sincere liberals. I salute them for trying to reach others every day.

Due to the many freepers, I can only take it for so long at a time, but at the same time, DU is so strict I feel like its a bit of an echo chamber, and I want to at least TRY and help inform people who think differently than myself.

That's the discussion board I found it on (though I can't find the post now)

18. Hey, next you can post images of people getting beheaded in Iraq.
Or you know what? How about video of people leaping from the WTC! Wasn't that horrible? Let's watch it again!

6. A little overtheatrical aren't we?
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 07:59 PM by UdoKier
I saw it, I thought it was appalling, and I posted it. It illustrates the freeper mindset pretty well, IMO.

Sorry if it sent you into a panic. The thread title warned you that it was a rightwing image.

And if it makes people pissed and want to slug back, all the better, IMO.

12. I don't know if he ever pulled firealarms.
I know he's been banned twice under two different usernames.

16. Really? fill me in.
Since there was no rhetoric in the post...

It's simply an offensive image, labeled as such.

22. Because there was nothing constructive about it,
and it was designed solely to inflame. Freepers often troll through here posting crap with the title, "Can you believe this shit?" No one who has spent more than a few days here is fooled anymore.

24. I've been here since early 2002.
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 08:28 PM by UdoKier
99.9% of my posts (and I must have more than 10 thousand) are in line with the mainstream here, but every so often, I'll post something like this, and a few hypersensitive souls like yourselves will go batshit.

I see no reason to get inflamed at EACH OTHER over what is a RW graphic. It makes me mad at them, not any democrats.

When someone posts a drudge link to a story about Ted Kennedy being back off the wagon or some other nonsense - THAT is disruption.
When their avatar is the book cover of "unfit for command" THAT is a freeper.

I fail to see how this fits either of those descriptions.

By the way, the vast majority of posts at DU are not "constructive" they deal with people's perceptions and feelings of what is going on around them.

This tacky graphic is a lot less of a slap in the face than the smug gloating we see on ALL the news channels right now.

25. I still fail to discern any constructive purpose to your post.
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 08:54 PM by 2dumb2beprez
What, we don't already know that RWers are ass holes? "Ted Kennedy off the wagon" and "Swift Boat" posters aren't the only freepers we see; they're just the OBVIOUS ones. Several of them (wrongly) feel that they have mastered the art of subtlety. If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong and I apologize; but nerves are a little raw around here right now and your post didn't help.

26. Well, if it helps any, I made the image optional.
I am NOT a subtle freeper. I am a liberal democrat who thinks and expresses himself slightly differently than everybody else. I ask for yout tolerance since YOU didn't label me a freeper.

Stuff like that feeds the fires of my anger, and that's a big motivator to get up and keep fighting against these people.

But I have to admit that there is no shortage of fuel for the fire the last few days!

I just happened across the image, it pissed me off, and I posted it right away.

Never thought it would bug anybody that much.

27. Maybe, just maybe, we're on the same page.
But after 10,000 posts, perhaps you could check out how some inflamatory images are reacted to around here. Particularly now, when, as I said, nerves(at least mine)are rubbed just as fucking raw as they can get. Peace.

15. You know that because I announced it.
Both times after several thousand posts, I might add.

Do a search, read a few of my posts. If you think I'm a freeper or here to disrupt, alert away.

But I think you know damn well that I'm not.

You don't like the graphic. Neither do I. But that is who we're dealing with.

23. Oh, what I'd like to say to you, but you're not worth it.
But I'm pretty sure you know where you can stick that "freeper" crap.

This must be a component of that morality stuff they keep lecturing us on.
