Can I openly wish for Trump to die of bowel cancer? That doesn't seem violent or a threat.
See Pit's post above.
Ah. I intend to test the limits of the Mods' patience with this rule.
You're off my Christmas card list.
I never have been on your list. You're off mine, now.
LOL, is it like.. kindergarten? Isn't it like.. obvious?
Whatever. Let crying babies show what they are made of.
What kindergarten did you go to?!?! "Missy teacher, I HOPE YOU DIE A PAINFUL, LENGTHY DEATH SOON!"
Are there legal issues, at work here? E.g, if I explicitly call for death of Russian hackers, who would be suing us? Russia? Ditto Daesh. Ditto calling for Putin's overthrow.
To be clear, I don't want to call for the death of the British Premier (I happen to like her). There should be an understanding Americans and our allies are off limits. Allies defined by the intelligence agencies, State Department, and other appropriate government agencies.
Why not set the standard that any American citizen or American ally (throughout Bush, Obama, and Trump) cannot have death or harm called on them (unless they clearly and explicitly join ISIS, which in my mind constitutes renouncing American loyalty and citizenship). I've had liberals say some very extreme things about Trump, and that's equally disturbing to me (that's a little unhinged, personally).
I just feel we should have a pro-American/Western civilization/anti-Daesh viewpoint on these boards. This is an American political board and that should reflect our loyalty to the country.
Completely opposed to this proposal. The idea that calling for the death of an American is morally worse than calling for the death of a foreigner is very debatable, and shouldn't be the official forum policy.
And for the US allies thing; So I would be banned if I say "I hope the people of Saudi Arabia pull a Nicholas II on the al-Saud family" but not be banned if I said the same about the Ayatollah?
