Freedom of speech allows me to describe someone who gets upset at everything as an extra-special snowflake, and allows them to tell me to sit on it and rotate in return.

Perhaps I'm not getting my point across very well, just because you have the right to offend doesn't mean you should exercise it generally imo. I'm not talking about all those precious snowflake types either but 'normal' people.

I'm amazed that you don't agree with this concept but that is your perogative.......strange as it is. I am truly amazed at your thinking.

Indeed.

You must travel in very different circles to myself, I've never met an extremist and if I did and he was particularly annoying I think I'd be more inclined to shove that bible or Koran or whatever where the sun doesn't shine than simply tell him to.

You aren't.

I'm not entirely sure where I said that just because I could as I rule I would. A major point of rights is that you can choose not to exercise them. If you have to they stop becoming rights and become obligations.

Besides, if being offensive is done as a matter of routine it loses most of its impact. If saved for special occasions it's far more satisfying.

Talking about bigots and morons:

Katie Hopkins was challenged to name 'swathes of UK where control has been lost to Muslims' and couldn't do it

I hope the Muslims treat her as a joke as much as the rest of us do.

Well not really. I hope they don't like her as much as the rest of us do.

Please tell me I'm not the only who can see how wrong the above comment is.

Yes she has made some outrageous statements and when challenged she can never substantiate them but sadly there are others like her.

Buy Donald Trump loves her, so she can't be all bad...

Still not convinced Trump isn't doing this all as a joke to make either other republicans seem less looney or the democrats a better option.

I comfort myself with the knowledge that even American's could be stupid enough to elect him, then I think of Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush ....

To quote Russell Howard

"Trump has all the charisma of a turd that won't flush"

In comparison to Trump, Bush is a positive genius with a far more liberal character.

Trump is a genius.

No other republican candidate is getting any airtime whatsoever.

Also Clinton and Obama have now started having a go at him, meaning even more air time for Trump.

Clinton knows if trump gets the nomination that it'll be a walkover .

That said, it's a forgone conclusion that Clinton will be the next president.

It doesn't matter who the GOP candidate is, none of them will win against Clinton.
