Trump - 'terrorist Sympathiser'
Should a man who openly supported the political wing of the IRA be taken seriously when he talks of combatting terrorism, or is it simply that the world has 'good terrorists' and 'bad terrorists'?

I never suggested that he would become President, how rich he is, or even how the American political system works, all I said he hasn't done too bad so far, and that can't be denied, has any other candidate reached the level he holds so far. I'd wager there are not many on this side of the pond who could even name another candidate, apart from Ms Clinton.

I can't add anything constructive to this 'debate' but I saw this a short while ago and it seemed to be related a little to this matter.

Oh so when AH is rude, it is just exercising his sense of humour, but let anyone do likewise then it is off to the moderators.
But put that aside for now, in the hope that you will also appreciate my sense of humour, because I don't half have a laugh when I call you 'Hughes'.

I don't know anything about being 'off to the moderators - as you never tire of reminding everyone, that is something I have no need to do.

There lies the difference between you and I AOG -
I make a little light-hearted banter about Mr Trump's hair - he won't see what I have written, and many many other people do the same, and he is fully aware of it.
You delight and are amused by doing something which causes me offence, against my repeated polite requests that you desist.
So which is really humour - my gentle teasing of a public figure several thousand miles away, who would never know, or your baiting of me over an issue which I find discourteous, and which I cannot avoid as a regular on the AB?
I think we both know the answer.

Some would be forgiven for thinking that craven and sneaky and not talking straight. I believe Clanad and Stuey are in North America.!!

Making fun and being personally rude to a person just because they will never know since they happen to be a few thousand miles away is no excuse whatsoever, in fact it is very cowardly way of going about things.
If Mr Trump happened to be in your company, I doubt very much that you would then make fun and be personally rude to him.
/// I think we both know the answer. ///
Well that is my answer anyway, but not sure yours will be the same.

That is your viewpoint, and of course I respect it - but consider this - if everyone viewed this situation as you do, the entire comedy and satire industries would be destroyed over night.

Of course not - but then again, I would not be deliberately offensive to someone if I was in their cyber-company either - that is not polite or adult behaviour - is it?
