Freeptards show their mind-blowing hypocrisy
Edited on Sun Nov-12-06 02:43 PM by autorock
Here these mental defects are cheering for the proposed Dutch government ban on Muslim veils.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1736494/posts

We all know that freeptards- and fundie reich wingers in general- are among the first to rant and scream hysterically about "the war on Christianity" in America.

Imagine if the US government sought to ban crucifixes or Christian paraphernalia? These freeptards would be screaming about socalism, communism, fascism, religious freedom, and "big government."

But when a foreign government starts dictating things to Muslims, it's not big government or socialism, it's "a country that is exercising its rights to determine its own direction."

Wow. Incredible.

These freeptards give hypocrites a bad name. I sincerely believe that anyone registered at freeretarded.com has deep-rooted mental insecurities.

1. Re:
I think that they must just cut and paste their rants about Socialism, Communism, etc from a Word document. It's the same old crap over and over and over.

5. Good point, though I doubt if it's a Word Document
They're still coming to grips with Notepad, probably...

2. You really should stay away from there. It will rot your brain. Welcome to DU.

3. They are not being hypocritical in this sense
They only care about Christianity. If they protested for "freedom of religion", and then backed this move, that would be one thing. But they don't. They only care about their own religion, just as the Freeps only care about their own personal well-being. It's just more selfishness, not hypocrisy.

4. I'm surprised they would be so supportive of this.
After all, this establishes a legal precedent for the banning of other religious iconography (i.e. Christian crosses worn on a chain around your neck, etc.)

6. If they did that...
They would be screaming about how nobody saw this coming.
