Guess that also has to do with the stock market, Wall Street, and financial systems.
Like I said, there is much to discuss, which is a heck of a lot more important than stupid name-calling.

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
Of course you also have talk shows and publications and other venues where like minds gather together to share. Do they have HATERS conventions too? How do they cut loose and have fun?

Prior to that I had gone to him and told him what he says to me sometimes hurts my feelings and his response was that they're only words. I had to build up the courage because I had never stood up to him before. But the time came when he called me a name and I went right up to him and said the same thing back to him. I'll never forget the look of shock on his face and before I left, I turned to him and said, oh come on now, they're only words, aren't they. 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

I'm not sure I'd like being referred to as gross or morbid and I would prefer to be called "plus size". 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

Report him to police/abuse, B. Punch /hit back, C. Wait till things die down and say nothing, D. Talk to him about how it is unacceptable, or E. Say nothing anymore to him until you can get out..
I have done a mix of D and E, although I truly think, I should have done A. I just say nothing to him until I can have the money and clear mind to get out ..

One person commenting said that anyone that says they aren't afraid of dying is lying. Do they really think they know you better than you know yourself and that they can speak for everyone.

So I used my acting skills to pretend I was scared and also that I was gay and also a bit of a drama queen. The guy still insisted that I give him my money so I said - well honey I don't have any money but if you want to get lucky - then I glanced over at some bushes. When the guy turned his head to look at the bushes I clocked him in the side of his head with the 6 pack of Lucky lager in the plastic bag and when he stopped crying I told him he's lucky it wasn't a 12 pack. Any way since it's the weekend I thought I would add a link to the song - Give Me Your Money Please by BTO. Cheers and happy weekend!
