Oh, the IRONY!
I almost never start a thread, but this one is just to... wow.

In light of horrible killing spree of the neo-Nazi nutball in Pittsburgh I went to the Stormfront site's forum to see just what sort of craziness people like that think. There is an announcement sticky there that reads:

07-05-2008 until 07-05-2009
Jack Boot
Editor and Stormfront Chief of Staff

Racial Epithets

From this date onward, use of the word "******" is strictly prohibited in the Open Forums. The forums will be scanned regularly, all posts containing the word "******" will be deleted, and members abusing the term will be suspended for 7 days. Post deletions will be automatic. If you think the context of your post justifies the use of the vulgarity, the post deletion can be appealed to a moderator of your choosing.



Note: "******" refers to the "N" word although I'm sure you probably knew that



:wtf: A bunch of nuts that hate all races other than their white one and they aren't allowed to use that VULGARITY the "N" word. A racist forum full of racists that must be PC when it comes to racial epithets. :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:





Well, that's all I needed to read there to find out they're even more batshit crazy than I thought.

1. two results of that announcement:
1) non-moving fingers at thousands of keyboards, along with puzzled & confused looks and furrowed brows on stormfront posters

2) in about three days, there will be a marked lack of new posts on stormfront, as most posters will be in 7-day suspension

2. The editor's name is Jack Boot?

I notice he's not wearing jack boots in this one.

8. Probably a variation of "Jack Butt", a euphemism of his ACTUAL name...
... Jack Ass. :crazy:

3. Ahhhh, Stormfront, the original perpetrators of the Birther myths!
They're trying to go "main stream", thus the removal of the epithets.

7. Oh I get it !
So instead of saying: "We hate N*****s!" they'll say "We hate African Americans!" and all will be well.

:rofl: And they'll believe that, too.

9. Alone the name "Stormfront" makes me throw up in my mouth...
"Stormfront" is as Nazi-ism as it gets. I am German, and "Sturmfront" is a name that you would expect for a nazi skinhead band.
Or for some publication that had its heyday somewhere between 1933 and 1945. :puke:

I am not gonna visit that forum EVER.

Does :cry: Glen Beck :cry: post there? :mad:

5. I'm sure that's just for the Open Forums
Amongst themselves, it'll be racism as usual. And if the poor dears get their post deleted, they can appeal to the moderater of their choosing: "But Cletus, I'm really, really mad at black people today!"

10. That site is heavily monitored by the feds because of threats to Obama.
