The Death of a Troll: An Obituary for ‘Joe Freedom’ and ‘Molon Labe!’

Last night we were assaulted by a denizen of the under-the-bridge variety. Yes . . . a troll. Normally when we are paid a visit by these hobos of the internet we assail them with verbal harpoons and then they get banned, never to be seen or heard from again. But this troll was special. Yes, by that I mean he rides the short bus. So I decided to write about him.

In case you missed it, what happened was this: An obviously mentally handicapped individual just waltzed on in to our beloved website and began verbally abusing our very own family member, Orphan. His attacks were valiantly parried by Raptor Keeper, Harbinger, and Uncle Ellis until I was able to arrive on scene and remove the offensive sh*t-stain from our presence.

What set him off? Apparently he thinks we are all racists. That’s ironic because initially he was calling himself “Joe Freedom.” But Joe Freedom doesn’t believe in anyone’s First Amendment rights other than his own.

Joe strode down the steps off the short bus and declared that Orphan is a racist and demanded that she leave. 

There’s quite a bit of profanity here so I’ve edited it a bit in hopes that our sponsors won’t be offended.

“Your racist sh*t isn’t welcome here. Take your ass to a leftist site where you belong.”

Dude. Who the f*ck are you to tell anyone here they are not welcome?

Uncle Ellis responded promptly and appropriately. “Orphan’s been here a long time, and is ALWAYS welcome. Orphan is definitely no leftist. And you are not the doorkeeper. Orphan has the FREEDOM to say whatever. Be tolerant?????”

You see, he was referring to Joe’s screen name which features not only the word freedom but also has a picture of tolerance at the point of a rainbow colored gun.

How ironic. He claims to be pro-constitution yet won’t allow Orphan her First Amendment rights.

Raptor Keeper then leaped into the fray saying, “Orphan is NOT GOING ANYWHERE. An apology is in order. It’s YOU who won’t be here much longer.”

Truer words were never spoken. And then Harbinger came to Orphan’s defense.

“Exactly how long have you been here? And who put you in charge? Orphan came here from the start. If you don’t like what she says that is your prerogative, however you do not have the right to remove anyone.”

Here are some of Joe’s not-so-clever retorts: “You clearly have no idea how long I have been coming here… I will stand against any pos that spew racisms and if you dont like that fact you can A, kiss my patriot ass, B. suck on the barrel. C. go f*ck yourself. If you act like a halfwit and moron you will be called a halfwit and moron and I don’t give two sh*ts if you like it or not. Fuggin snowflake.”

“You smell like a leftist with that nonsense. Criminals do belong in cages/cell/prison. You expose yourself.”

“Several leftist trolls here pretending to be on the right while they spew racism. Report them as you find them down the thread to combat that nonsense.”

“Actually halfwit, racist arent welcome here and you can go with him since you defend his racist rump you must also be a racist. It doesn’t matter how long he has been here. His type and racism have no place on this page. Who are you trying to fool?”

Unruffled, Harbinger responded, “I guess I am. She has the same 1st amendment right you do. And I would argue that you are free to say what you like too, but you do not have a right to come on here and tell her to leave. This is a pretty tight community, you do yourself no service to join and start telling others that have been here far longer what to post or to leave. We are all adults here, but you resort to name calling. If you do not like what she posts you have 2 options, 1. leave, or 2. block her. Calling people halfwit and moron, well that is just childish.”

An excellent response.

[EDIT] – In my haste to post this I forgot LuvAMilitaryParade also responded to Joe’s accusations of racism with this excellent post:

“Wow. You all are getting worked up.
Over something as obvious as a blue sky.

Joe you’re using the word ‘racism.’
Actually the proper term is ‘culturism.’
I (We) prefer my (our) white culture.
The black culture is self-destructive.
The black culture is inferior.
The black culture is destroying America as I (we) know it.
FACT (culture) not racism.

NOTE: Behave yourself.
Antagonizers on DefCon quickly get the hook.”

Around this time I was made aware of this cretin’s presence and decided to ban him. But not before administering some verbal abuse first.

I said, “And you are a c*ck-sucking queerdo. Nobody attacks my friends and gets to hang around here, no matter what your name is, f*ggot.”

Joe didn’t like that. He responded, “Im LMAO at you closet h*mo…”

AND

“So when someone stands up against racist comments here you all defend them and call them f*ggots… I see I found a gaggle of leftist trolls here pretending to be something other than the sh*tbags you are. Your friends? You must be one pathetic MF if fake ass names are your friends. And a bunch of racist as*holes to boot. All of you pretenders can eat sh*t and die. Your ban is worthless you moron.. I change ip at will and free email is plentiful. It’s time to have some fun with you leftist pricks. I see youre the real F*GGOT William no nuts.”

No. When someone starts calling valued members of our community names we defend them. As for “fake ass” names being my friends, I can assure you that there are indeed real people behind these screen names. I’ve spoken with quite a few of them on the phone.

My retort, “I don’t walk into your workplace and tell you how to suck d*cks. So don’t come in here and tell me how to run this site.”

To which he replied, “You’re a true professional…lol You sure seem to be fixated on homosexuality. Are you in the closet? You’re a fake f*ck. Stop pretending lefty.”

Hmm. Joe accused Orphan of being a racist yet he then uses the words “homo” and “f*ggot” in a derogatory fashion. Isn’t that just a bit hypocritical? I believe it is.

And as for me being a “true professional?” I’m not. Never claimed to be. “Professional” implies that I get paid to do this. I don’t. Therefore I can be as “unprofessional” as I damn well please.

So I banned Joe then he came back as “Molon Labe!” (no, not our brother the REAL Molon Labe) and continued his attacks. So I banned that account as well. But being the moron that he is, even though he was banned he tried posting a few more times to no avail. Didn’t he notice that every time he tried to post an alert popped up on his monitor declaring he was banned? He’s persistent, I’ll give him that. Here’s what he had to say. He was really hurtful. 🙁

“Poof youre too stupid for words.” Poof? Youre? Who’s stupid now?

“So is the admin here and his racist friends….”

“When you you grow some hair on your nuts you can speak again. Until then shut the f*ck up you coward f*ck lefty pos.”

“He’s a racist and youre piece of sh*t coward that talks sh*t and then tries to ban so no response can be given to your lil pussy spew. Grow a pair lil boy.”

No, I didn’t try to ban you, I DID ban you. And look! I even posted all your replies right here for everyone to read! How cowardly is that?

“F*ck youre stupid.” That’s spelled “you’re.” 😉

“I’ll go when Im ready as*hole…I’ll be back tomorrow just to tell you to f*ck yourself.”

Well, he left ahead of schedule. But don’t forget his threat. “Your ban is worthless you moron.. I change ip at will and free email is plentiful. It’s time to have some fun with you leftist pricks.”

And I’ll just keep clicking that “ban user” button.

It’s tomorrow Joe. We’re waiting. 🙂
