Default Trump political rally wrecked.

And forced to cancel, by left wing protesters.

And yet, we haven't seen the condemnation that would have occurred had it been the other way round.

How come when lefties cause something to be cancelled it's because they are protesting about scum right-wingers?

But if right wingers did it, it would be the scum right wingers doing it?

Double standards.

Public safety issues.

Caught between a rock and a hard place. Did you not see it?

This is the trouble. If you try to shut down opposing views through violent protest, it will not end well. Its a retrograde step, funnily enough a tactic always used by the left....

When you have a campaign that affirmatively encourages violence you create an environment that only encourages this sort of nasty discourse

LOL at the usual "I'm not a lefty, but..." types on here, refusing point blank to condemn this.

Typical socialists

I would be suprised if any of the protesters were Democrats. It is far more likely to be Rubio and Crazy Cruz supporters with Rubio and Cruz's unofficial backing/encouragement.

You demonstrate you are too thick to use the internet on a daily basis

You continually post regurgitated crap – that can be debunked with google
and 5 mins

But still you believe and post this rubbish

Yes off course violence is to be condemned

As is threats too

Trump – to a non-violent protestor after being assaulted by Trump supporters (you do believe in non-violent protests?)

"Maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing."

Again – threatening violence at another rally

“If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you?". "I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees."

To another peaceful protestor – being escorted out of a rally (you do believe in non-violent protests?)

"I'd like to punch him in the face, I'll tell you. You know what they used to do to guys like that when they were in in a place like this?" "They'd be carried out on a stretcher, folks."

which might give you a clue why even his republican opponents said

"When you have a campaign that affirmatively encourages violence you create an environment that only encourages this sort of nasty discourse "

You really need to socialise a bit more if all you can do is insult people.

I know you are a socialIST...but do try and get out more.

OK, gloves off: you utter fukcing turd. You **** eating piece of scum.

I called you a lefty and a socialist. NEITHER is an insult, but if you want insults, well, I can do those all night.
Pig-fukcer.

Satisfied now?

Enough of the playground insults.

Try and argue like a bloke, not some daft lass.

Or shut up...you've shown what you have, and it's nowt. Typical socialist.

Sigh. Look I've done it in the past. I've taken hodgy to task over stuff. But the thing you need to realise is that people become entrenched. Once they are there, an aggressive attitude only makes them dig in deeper. Some are lost causes (martin), some are deranged (Jtaylor), but getting het up over the internet is actually giving yourself stress. Yes you may disagree, yes they may be ignoring hugely important points, but some people are strangers to reason. Learn to deal with it, and have a happier life. This applies to everyone here BTW

It really is that simple

From this point onwards, the webteam will be responding assertively (at their discretion) to any of the following conduct:

- Taking a thread off topic to solicit an argument about a subject of dubious relevance.
- Baiting (not debating) on contentious issues, or making things personal i.e. having a dig at someone, badgering them for a response, being disrespectful or otherwise trying to belittle their viewpoint/beliefs.
- Creating a thread where, at prima facie, the primary intention appears to be to ridicule another user's beliefs or incite a 'bun fight'.
- Posting anything that is deemed by the webteam to be conducive with inciting disharmony among members
- Ignoring a webteam request to put a member on ignore
Right gentleman, lets how about we all go have a cup of tea and think about what we're all doing eh? Just because the mods don't enforce the rules doesn't mean they shouldn't be followed.

Suits me. Drank two coffees, willing to apologise to hodgy if he apologises to me.

Problem is, he's now into finding what I meant, rather than what I SAID.

We have all been there, I have posted things whilst under the influence, which on reflection I prob would not have

To some extend I do understand your frustration and passion regarding the "state we are in" after all I have 5 children so like you a vested interest in making things better - but I still feel your frustration/anger is misdirected

I know you do, Hodgy, and it frustrates you.

But your and Martin's attitudes frustrate me.
