Comments on: Updated: Anonymous shows HPD Lieutenant and Friendswood PD chief love racist and sexist emails http://freepresshouston.com/technology/anonymous-shows-hpd-lieutenant-and-friendswood-pd-chief-love-racist-and-sexist-emails/ Houston's only locally owned alternative newspaper Tue, 06 Sep 2026 23:16:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Steve Thompson, Jr. http://freepresshouston.com/technology/anonymous-shows-hpd-lieutenant-and-friendswood-pd-chief-love-racist-and-sexist-emails/comment-page-1/#comment-22705 Steve Thompson, Jr. Tue, 06 Sep 2026 17:27:54 +0000 http://freepresshouston.com/?p=6796#comment-22705 I agree with the aptly named Steve on this one- "fraudulently" is the author's opinion, which differs from idiot blogger Fischer's. I really don't get the outrage here. Sorry. Have you ever spoken to a cop? They are the same sort of people who wear jean shorts on the weekends and find Larry the Cable Guy funny- the fact they find this racist humor acceptable should surprise no one. I'll take it even a step further- I think personal email needs to be protected the same way snail mail is by the federal government. Why isn't it? I'm relatively certain 95% of the emails I get from friends would bar me not only from public office, but also from ever looking my girlfriend's parents in the eyes, so it's hard for me to throw too many stones.

Fischer states that there IS damage to the intelligence, sanity and health of the Muslim population without any such proof and hypothesizes that it is caused by inbreeding. Since the "damage" is not a fact but presented as such it become deceit. The author of this article is not implying that he knows the far reaching topic of Muslims and genetics, but rather that Fischer is grandstanding rather than proving anything. Come on. For real?

That is excessive, Alex. First, Fischer's statements are a theory. You do not know if they are factually incorrect (your gut tells you they are). But even if they were, the use of the word "fraudulent" implies DECEIT, not merely ignorance. So with one word you have told your readers that (1) YOU, a reporter, know the truth about Muslims and genetices and (2) Fischer ALSO KNOWS HE'S LYING and is thereful being deceitful. I take issue with both parts, but particularly (2) because your stance is just over the top biased. Why are the statements in the Fischer article “fraudulent?” That is excessive, Alex.
