They just very strongly indicate that they can't stand the sight of them! Instead, they leave it to Donald to express all their hatred for them! Please don't try to argue that Donald does not express hatred. You wouldn't suggest building a wall to keep a whole racial group out, or talk of trying to ban a whole religion, if you liked or respected them. Go on, Donald supporters, why don't you let it all out. Just say what you really feel. You know how good it would make you feel!  less

I have lost count of the number of times I have seen right-wingers from America (it never seems to be other countries) on this website declare that "liberalism is a mental illness."
    That is not the only similarity. I am not saying that all American righties support all of these views, but the following are common among them.
    They support the death penalty, outlawed in every other Western/developed country, if they are not executing you, they support locking you up for an extremely long sentence. Communist countries all did those things. They don't approve of homosexuals. "The conditions that lead to it don't exist in the Soviet Union, comrade." After which they were executed. Still are, in the remaining communist states. Also, just as the Red Army was supposedly there to "protect" the people, they support the "right to bear arms" to "protect ourselves against the bad guys" or "form a militia to overthrow th...    less

Even though I was shaking like a leaf,  I'll never forget that feeling I had when I finally stood up to him.  I didn't think it would feel so powerful to have that weight lifted off my shoulder.  Were you ever verbally abused.  If so, how did you handle it?   less

So how are we suppose to describe someone.  "A person of weight" or big boned.  Any adjective you use to describe them is simply another word for fat.  I certainly realize that even though we may say someone is pretty, saying someone is ugly, which it's the opposite, is definitely offensive so what do you think is the least offensive way of describing an overweight person.  less
