Ten Reasons I Would NOT Invite A Friend To DailyPaul

In fairness, Michael has never promoted his site as the best place to learn about Ron Paul.

But it is true that DP features good posts and links to many excellent videos and articles.

So why would I not send a friend here to be educated about Ron Paul and the freedom issues we all share in common?
(In no particular order.)

Chemtrails.
FEMA concentration camps.
Anti-vaccination.
Zeitgeist.
Christianity.
Atheism.
Fluoridation.
9/11 Truth.
Genocide.
Polygamy.

If I forgot to offend someone by listing your pet "issue", sorry.
This is only a partial list. ;)

it's a conversation for christs sake! There are many topics that I care to touch on in my conversations with people! The wonderful thing about people (if you embrace it) is their diversity, that they are not all like me-I'm boring.
It's because of people like you with these kinda posts that we now have mods who argue much the same way....

"Ideas have consequences." Ron Paul

I am new here

and I am not turned off by the talk of FEMA camps/coffins, NAU, etc. All I want to do is find out information that the media wont tell us. This site has become a daily staple for me. I don't post much, just read a lot. And I take everything i read with a grain of salt, not just on this site, bit everywhere. I have told some of my friends to check out this site, and will continue to do so. I am sick and tired of our government and their cradle to grave mentality, it is great that there are sites to go to that discuss real issues. remember, not everyone can agree on everything, but we all share a love of liberty and that's more important than concentrating on worrying about turning off new members because of conspiracy theories. besides, Ive learned to "never say never" when it comes to such things.....

Thanks for the feed back Jane...

"All great truths begin as blasphemies."

Here's how I see it.

The reasons which seem to concern people about "bringing a friend to DP" are all things which buck the mass-programming that the general public is infected with.

Bottom line:
You just lost the fight. Because you'd rather cave in to peer pressure to accept the programmed lie-agenda, than to stand up for yourself and for freedom.

You made the decision to pre-empt them from learning something, because you are a coward, and are afraid what they might think of you for recommending the site where issues you clearly do not understand, are discussed.
You are making them pay the price for your own ignorance.

or, maybe

he is afraid that so much info on this site will scare them off and cause them to write us off as nuts.
perhaps he believes that a newbie should be fed milk before meat before he can digest it, and/or run the risk of choking.

I'll take each issue one-by-one.

1. Chemtrails.

Since when is this a secret? I remember hearing about "weather modification" on the TV when I was a kid back in the 1980s.

2. FEMA concentration camps.

If my government had mass quantities of plastic coffins stashed away somewhere, I'd want to know about it. If I was sceptical, I'd want to look at the evidence and make up my own mind.

3. Anti-vaccination.

Part of the broader "government in healthcare" and "big pharma" debates. Let's look at the BIG picture on this one.

4. Zeitgeist.

The reason this film is relevant is because it touches on just about every issue that Libertarians care about. I'm no fan of "Zeitgeist Addendum" but its still relevant!

5. Christianity.

How many Americans go to Church? It is definitely relevant to life in the USA. I say that as a non-religious Brit.

6. Atheism.

See above.

7. Fluoridation.

Although I don't subscribe to all the views expressed on this subject, it definitely relates to issues of government interference and consumer choice.

8. 9/11 Truth.

Does anyone on the Daily Paul believe the official story? I hope not. However, I don't think we should fall into the trap of spinning alternative yarns. Follow Ron Paul's example on this issue.

9. Genocide.

Must be an east-European, African and Asian thing right? That could never happen in North America or Western Europe. Famous last words?

10. Polygamy.

Uhhh. I must have missed those threads.

Thanks bloke...

appreciate your thoughtful response. The freedom to speak one's mind and the freedom to agree or disagree is what makes America great...or rather what used to make America great.

The search for truth & education is what i like about dp. :)

It's the "guilt by association" thing my mother warned me about.

If you hang out with drug addicts, or hookers, or shoplifters....you'll be assumed guilty of the same. I prefer to think I'm hanging out with forward thinking people here at DP, regardless of the topic de'jour, and perhaps enhancing my chances of being "guilty" of caring about my country.

Hey spacehabitats hows your gov't contract going?

Next time you're in Virginia stop by the shop. We miss you and keep up the good work.

everybody knows only I would intentionally and knowingly kill JFK, plan/execute 9/11, exterminate people in darfur, fix elections, cover up UFOs, fluoridate your water supply, brainwash your kids with TV, and implement a dishonest funny money system!!!

i want the planet all to myself! that's all. just me... and a couple of hot busty asian girls in catholic schoolgirl outfits to do my bidding. so what if i gotta slaughter a couple of billion monkeys to achieve that? does that make me evil?

now excuse me while i get back to my duties; signing bin laden's paycheck, planning war with iran..

geeez jeff... would ya make up your mind...

on the marriage thread it was what 'one type of girl' (can't remember), then on another thread it was irish girls, now its hot busty asians. geeez. pick a type already!! :)

monogamy is for suckers

why should I settle for just one?!

how did i know you would say THAT?!!

:)

well you know the alpha

well you know the alpha supremo manliest man has a duty to spread his seed! muahahahahaha!!!!!!!

YOU ARE AN ACCIDENT

You are an accidental Ron Pauler. You surely didn't arrive at this persuasion by educating yourself. If you had, you would be awake concerning these issues, and they wouldn't offend you.

How about this!

We could petition the government to regulate the DailyPaul, that way your friends could visit without being upset by the freedom of individuals to post unregulated topics they may find silly or offensive.

But then again, I like it the way it is and respect the site for its lack of overbearing restriction.

;-)

I have not

and would never send a friend here. Not only are there completely nutty topics up for discussion, but the place is loaded with government trolls. I believe the government trolls are more interested in abusing authority, than actually protecting this country. It is very sad and I have lost a lot of respect for them.

Do you talk to your friends about life and death issues at all?

To paraphrase Rick James "Freedom is a m*tha f*cka"

Seriously though. How free will you and your friends be if you aren't vigilant in seeking truth. How can there be any justice or remedies for our situation if their is no discourse about those things that shape the policies of the Establishment and the laws of our land?

Ron Paul is a person of great integrity and bravery. He does what he can to promote the issues we have in common against all odds. He doesn't run from these issues. He understands the situation more than most and he is pretty sly about what he let's on about to the public. He's no fool but we would be, if we ignored the issues that repel you and your friends.

Trying to stay alive is one of the issues that we all have in common, right? So why are you trying to call out the very people who are concerned and promoting the cause of life and liberty?

Did you listen to RP on Alex Jones? Better take #2 off your list

Ron believes in FEMA, and spoke frankly about it. Now you only have nine misconceptions to be cured of. Good luck! Plumbing the depths of truth can be a bit painful, but it is truly liberating in the end.

Five of those topics are

Five of those topics are directly related to RP and/or his political positions.

What is crazy about religion

What is crazy about religion is there is no proof. Honestly, how can someone who believes in the truth so bad, believe in talking snakes and magic space aliens in the sky or the world only being 6000 years old when Chinese documented history goes back further than that, is beyond me. The truth is religion is a bunch of stories. The truth is religion has killed millions of people throughout history, oppressed science and technology way beyond where we could be. Its used as a way to control people and keep them in line in society. For someone like RP who wants total freedom, his strong almost fundi-christian views are one of the things that I dislike.

To me, anyone who claims they want the truth, and makes such wild statements such as "there is no way 2 planes took down a building", it can't happen, yet can believe in Jesus walking on water and all the other bible crap, is a living contradiction. There is no room for religion in a society where we have science to explain things.

Spacehabits

Please explain to me how two planes can bring down 3 steel buildings in their own footprint at the speed of gravity?

What kind of friend are you?

I have a lot of friends and I tell all my friends about Daily Paul.

I chose my friends, not based on sex, race, age, religion, politics, occupation or ability, but truth. That is our common demoninator, and with it, brings trust (priceless).

During the years, friends change as they experience life. I have changed, we all grow (if we are lucky and healthy) we grow with new experiences and our friendships become rocks, perhaps like stepping stones, based on intregity, which fortifies us with confidence.

To be blunt, you know when you're a grown-up when you can be yourself and not worry what other people are thinking about you. It's not a matter of being liked, but it's more a matter of liking.. and apparently you have an attraction to Daily Paul, eh? Admit it. You're here because you really like Dail Paul.

So, I suggest you come out of the closet with your friends and be yourself. If they don't like Daily Paul, so what? If they don't like you because you like Daily Paul, believe me, they never did like you, at least not for who you are, because they don't know who YOU really are, after all... look where you are.. hiding in your Daily Paul closet.

To correct this, send all your friends a link to this page right now. It's simple and free, and the best thing about all of this, you can come out of the closet, be FREE, a rEVOLutionariy or Patriot or just yourself.. seems to me the only ones who really know you are us anyway.

Did you miss where he said

Did you miss where he said "to be educated about Ron Paul"? This is a bad site to use for educating someone about Ron Paul if they don't already know a bit about him.

Your virtual "free" market - http://paulslist.us

I learned about paulslist on Daily Paul

From the beginning, many said, and I agree, the rEVOLution is BIGGER than Ron Paul, and the proof is Daily Paul and the NEW paulslist (ingenious!). To know Ron Paul and not the wide spectrum of supporters is not really educating one about Ron Paul is it? Aren't WE part of Ron Paul Campaign For Liberty, and the rEVOLution, and all I'll say is this, Ron Paul PERSONALLY Thanked me for inviting him to our rEVOLution. Ron Paul is NOT our dictator. He's our friend, and we are his friends. That is the one thing we all have in common here. We all like/LOVE, respect, trust, appreciate, admire and enjoy Ron Paul. I want a DAILY PAUL TEE SHIRT!!!!!!! With my nick name on it. I'm not Closet Daily Pauler!!!!

You listed why I AM HERE!!!

There are several sources to learn about Dr. Paul and his message, or of his ass-kicking speech du jour.
This DP site is my primary source for finding out what's REALLY going on in the world...or what has happened to our world. From the brilliant essays and history lessons from Republicae, to the biblical rants from the jesus freaks on here...I learn a little something from each and all. I agree with some, and agree to disagree with others. How else would any of us have learned about the live avian flu virus in the vaccines from Baxter the other day if not for Mr. Nystrom's site? From CNN? I think not!!
We all know and understand where RP is coming from and what what our ultimate goals are. I think that those of us here are attracted to this site because, as freedom-lovers, we hate being lied to...and at the risk of sounding like 'X-Files'....the truth is out there...trust no one.
I have learned to do my own research. I have learned about our American founding fathers and our Constitution and what it REALLY intends. I have leaned that, just because the election is over, Obama is NOT the President. I have learned to NOT drink the friggin' Cool Aid being given to me by the media. It's been 2 years since I took my "red pill", and thanks to all of you here, I continue to learn and grow.

That about...

That about sums it up. But nevertheless, I've sent several people this way.
Usually internet people who read so much online that they've already reached an understanding that the loudest are also frequently the least-informed.

The weird mix of information I get from this site is worth filtering through the flouride and chemtrails and holy wars.

Besides, occasionally I stop in and feed a troll when I'm in that sort of mood.
:-)

I love the DP'ers. Even the ones that are probably bat-sh*t insane.

My Shelfari page

Only Ron Paul fans have the

Only Ron Paul fans have the ability to listen to people we don't agree with and either ignore it or try to refute it. Others rush to judge and cannot think for themselves.

What makes Ron Paul such a magnet

is that he is all inclusive. He doesn't care what your personal views are because he is a Constitutionalist. He is not trying to control anyone or their views. Because he is so diverse, so is DailyPaul. That is why democrats and republicans and independents are legitimately attracted to what he believes in and stands for.

The only thing that I can say to this thread is:

Freedom is popular.

Mr. Nystrom ...

I posted the following to another moderator ...

Since you are on here this morning ...

I will post it here as well:

I will have to agree with you that things are a lot more even now.

Having said that ...

The site moderators still tend to ignore personal attacks from some individuals and delete them from others.

Has there been any warnings sent out to people that are consistently posting personal attacks to stop?

I come here quite often and I have noticed it to be just a few people that are consistently posting the ad hominims. And it tends to be the ones that have moderators as friends.

Let me give you a quote from one of the offenders ...

""Imaginary Friends"
This DB has no friends. I would be surprised if he has family since he spends most of his time on here. His wife must be on some sort of tranquilizers , otherwise he'd be getting yanked off of the computer by his hair. Any self respecting woman would not put up with such a thing.

I have never seen someone type "LOL" so many times in my life. He is a strange, strange bird.

I'm just tired of "hearing" in general."

WAHOR!!
