    Suppose trump wants to redefine the definition of bullie... how can we, the people, express our collective approval or disapproval if he's prohibited from even running on such a platform?

    If dave cameron decides that rape is good and virtuous, and makes it illegal for anyone who thinks otherwise to participate in the democratic process, then do we just accept rape as de facto virtuous and good?

      There's no point trying to reason with a person who rejects reality.
      There's no point trying to reason with someone too spectacularly ignorant to understand.

      So I shan't try again, whichever of those applies. It's not exactly difficult.

        Well, thank you for the complement.

          Democracy is rule by the majority. It has f*** all to do with respecting opinions



          If 51% of people think you are a retard

          well.... that's a bit of a bummer

            That's fine, unless the person's opinion is obviously entirely contrary to democratic principles.

            Are you suggesting mass chess might be the solution.

            Your freedom of speech is already limited. For example, you can't say that **** are a bunch of ****** ***** who should be rounded up, put in a field and bombed.

              You can, you should just expect consequences if you do.

                Except when you think expressing an opinion should disqualify someone for running for president?

                  I just checked and he's not running for president of the UK.


                  He is a security risk in the UK, given that he has claimed our police are useless and scared to go to work.


                  Let him come over, I'd love to see what happens if he tries to jump a barrier at Stockwell Underground. The last American that did that didn't fare too well.

                    I don't think he's had enough licks of the tar brush for that to be a concern

                      He wasnt American, he was Brazilian. He didn't jump the barriers he used a travel card. He also wasn't a threat to anyone. Didnt stop him getting shot in the head 7 times because some stupid bastard didnt check his facts before identifying him as a terrorist.

                      If you are going to make an argument about security threats at least try to base it on facts and don't make jokes about an innocent man being killed.
