More than 100,000 people have joined a social networking site designed for conservatives who said they were tired of censorship and liberal bullying on Facebook.
The Tea Party Community launched nine days ago — and since then has experienced tremendous growth, founder Tim Selaty, Sr., told Fox News.
“I suppose that a lot of conservatives were looking for a new home,” he said. “(Conservatives) are flocking from Facebook in droves.”

Maybe my facebook wall will become less spammy with pro-NRA messages and Bible verses.
I read down further and now I kind of see their point:
“We’ve been hearing non-stop, email after email, tweet after tweet, of other folks who are facing the same issues,” Weaver told Fox News. “There’s a very active liberal trolling community whose sole purpose is to get themselves busy reporting conservative pages and trying to cause trouble.”
Those same trolls tried to disrupt the Tea Party Community.
Selaty said they were hit by a DOS attack on launch day that shut down the social networking site.
A website, Something Awful, tried to infiltrate the site and began sending offensive messages to members.
“They tried to be as disruptive as possible,” he said. “At the end of the day, we’ve got a pretty good handle on it. Their infiltration is becoming less and less.”
I can see quite a few people on this forum participating in crap like that if someone gave them a link to follow and told them to make fun of conservatives...
