Its ~ VERY ~ easy to say, yea, get some weaponry, and fuck’em up, however, what will occur in using any type of offensive aggressive tactic, is exactly what these people want to be handed to them.

MORE REASON to say …

“See this is why we need to stop these deviant people, because they are out here to attack violently, and are spreading the cancer quickly, this is why we need to STOP THEM!! BECAUSE THEY ARE DANGEROUS!! Not ONLY to the general public to our children!!”

I have been saying this over and over (personally)…

This is not the way to do this, there are other methods in order to get our message across, which will appeal to everyone who is willing to join us in what we believe.

Yes, aggressive tactic(s) can be useful, but that is totally dependent on the situation, and this is not one of those situations.

We have been “hit” and by this “hit” ~ we now know that our message is beginning to filter out beyond our expectations, and is hitting home, and that – ‘they” – (whoever they may be) know that we are being serious to the cause in which we believe in.

We can only learn from this “hit” and continue to move further forwards, standing up for what we believe in.

This is true grgspunk.The best way to counter them is with feminist that believe in the same things we do and expose the problems of other feminist.Becouse there exists good and bad feminists.

To Michael and everyone else who expressed their will to help, know that Yes to Freedom constantly lacks members, especially writers and researchers. Spreading the word in any way possible is also highly appreciated. If you'd be interested in helping out in one of the ways described above - or have an idea for a new project or anything, really; we're very open to suggestions - please do PM me through the forums or contact me, the_pragmatist or Arokan through our IRC channel. Note that the latter would be preferable, and most likely faster as well.

I just read your latest news. I’m sorry to hear about your attack and I hope you guys are back on your feet!

We can’t let the “ignorant parties” shut you guys up!

As a lover of everything and anything Japanese — plus I love to draw stuff, I would like to help uphold your noble cause!

In any way I can.

Thank You and keep fighting the good fight!

It’s sad to see that someone felt the need to break the law in order to attempt to stop this website.
On the other hand, it is somewhat good news that someone felt that this organization was even worth attacking, suggesting that it is indeed gaining influence, so to speak.

Well it’s all in the past, nothing we con do about it since there is no need to cry over spilled milk. All we need to do is fix it up and go forward even though it’s easier said than done.

A movement which centers around a controversial or “hot” topic will get attacked sometime. Ya gotta be prepared for future attacks as well.

@ Sorrior,

Additional writers are always appreciated – as of now, we rely on a very small number of writers, and when these are busy, YtF as a whole is at a near-standstill.

@ Mikage-sama, Nin

Nin is not too far from our opinion on this matter, while Sorrior is quite spot-on. People who suggest aggressive and/or illegal methods have yet to truly understand what this organisation stands for.
