If they are going that far, they probably have enough to solidly back these claims or they'd risk a massive lawsuit.

cyrano is bitchmade for not loving banning them

My guess is, seeing how it's gone in the past, Cyrano finds "no politics" much more palatable and easier to enforce than having to have constant discussions via PMs about which particular right wing beliefs/opinions/statements are worthy of unpersoning.

I didn't actually join SA until after I was in the goon eve guild but I had been reading TFR for years before that as at the time it was mainly talking about old revolvers and military surplus. Somewhere along the way it got kinda over run by borderline alt right fuckers posting about home defense constantly

TFR has always had its share of idiots. Wasn't GI joe dirtbag pretty terrible back in the day? There's a few others I seem to remember as well I just don't remember usernames.

Cyrano killing politics chat seemed to get rid of the super alt-right conspiracy weirdos that haunted the politics thread there thankfully

e: when user got dog piled for saying hazing is a good thing in the military was pretty lol

I feel like I should repeat some quotes about this guy, because he is scary as gently caress, and not at a larper like the 4chan wehraboos:

https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/896927612009840640

quote:

In 1987, prosecutors say Sgt. First Class Michael R. Tubbs and another Army Green Beret, toting automatic weapons fitted with silencers and dressed completely in black, robbed two fellow soldiers of their M-16 rifles during a routine exercise at Fort Bragg, N.C. "This is for the KKK," the holdup men shouted as they fled.

The brazen armed robbery went unsolved for three years, during which time Tubbs, who was with the Special Forces for 12 years, became one of the first U.S. soldiers sent to the Middle East after Iraq invaded Kuwait.

While he was abroad, the wife of his partner in the 1987 holdup went to authorities. Ultimately, five caches of weapons were found, including machine guns, 25 pounds of TNT, land mines, an anti-aircraft machine gun, grenades, booby traps, 45 pounds of C-4 plastic explosive and more. (Authorities believe that the arsenal was stolen from Fort Bragg and Fort Campbell, Ky.)

They also found notes written by Tubbs that showed that he and his brother, John Tubbs, were setting up a violently racist group called the Knights of the New Order. Officials said Michael Tubbs had drawn up lists of targets including newspapers, television stations and businesses owned by Jews and blacks.

There was even a group pledge authored by Tubbs: "I dedicate my heart to oppose the enemies of my race, my nation and the New Order. ... I dedicate my life from this moment forward to fostering the welfare of the white Aryan race."

The Tubbs brothers were named in a 16-count federal indictment. In the end, Michael Tubbs pleaded guilty to theft of government property and conspiracy to transport guns and explosives across state lines. (His brother also pleaded guilty to weapons charges.) Michael served about four years in prison, emerging in 1995.

Michael Tubbs immediately reentered the white supremacist movement, running a group called Kinsman's Comitatus meant to provide financial support to "political prisoners." Helping him was Vicki Gonce, ex-wife of Joel Hubbard, the North Carolina grand dragon of the National Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.

Post the quickly aborted federal attempt at gun control after Sandy Hook, a whole lotta people showed up to be real mad about Obama and various conspiracy theories (F&F, Benghazi, Soros-bucks). It snowballed, obviously, when the 2016 election was in full swing.

Cyrano is smart like that. Its why GiP has its own intelligent gun chat thread.

It's also regulated. The stupid poo poo thread was not for years before Cyrano took over, and it still was unregulated, and it drove people away. Now that TFR has lost some prominent alt-right people it's now a Concern so he's desperate to clean it up. Meanwhile the GLBTQ folks that left years ago and the people that ducked out when TFR was all "the inevitable legislative response!!!" as Sandy Hook unfolded because wow that's loving gross guys, that's a non-issue who cares.

More or less. Of course if you post about home defense in a scenario where you're defending yourself from aforementioned nazi scum suddenly you're the bad guy and making poo poo up.

Also Funster got shitcanned for outing GI Joe Dirtbag as a rapist and the then mod of TFR banned not only him, Dirtbag, but the victim as well as it was "too much drama".

TFR has had a problem with moderators for loving years.
