Graciegirl means well most of the time. Some of these other posters are just mean spirited trolls who are cruel and seem to really enjoy just hurting people's feelings as much as possible. And they often hit below the belt as well. I remember this kind of rottenness in grade school and that is about where its maturity is. But it sure worked for Donald John Trump with his names against his opponents. Grade school tauntings. But most of his policies are on about the same level of sophistication. |

How many times has Graceless had the guts to stand up to those who share her political beliefs, when they have attacked you, your parents... and called you denigrating names? I know that answer...it is 0! So while you certainly have the right to like whomever you want, never forget those who have (and those who haven't) had the courage to call out those who try to denigrate your (and others) relatives/life/mental faculties/living arrangements/etc...and are just downright vicious to you. And it certainly isn't Graceless. ![]() |

Some quite good advice from an expert;
An angry person is looking for a fight. Through their escalation and unfair accusations, they are asking you to engage. As Eric Hoffer said, “rudeness is the weak man’s imitation of strength.” So, what is needed in the presence of a hot-headed person? A cool-headed person. The constructive response is not to indulge them in any action. When they shout, you keep silent or speak softly. When they come close, you increase the distance. When they say a lot, you say nothing or very little. Some people decide to respond, thinking that ignoring a provocation makes them lose and a bully to win. This is contrary to what actually happens. You win by disengaging. You become untouchable and gain control by increasing emotional and physical space. Imagine this situation: You are on a road and the driver in front of you drives dangerously and erratically, swaying wildly sideways, speeding up and pressing the brakes, honking randomly. Should you catch up, open up your window and attempt a discussion on proper driving? Of course not. You shift lanes and drive away, quietly demonstrating your intelligence and preference for safety. De-escalate the angry person in a similar manner, by exiting the scene emotionally or physically, not participating in their drama. Remember also that basic defenses of angry, self-justifying people are projection and denial. You tell them that they are scaring you with their shouting, they say you are the one yelling. You tell them their words are hurtful, they tell you that you told them things ten times worse, plus you are the one who made them angry to begin with. So, what are the ways to negotiate with reality distorters? The short answer is “there are none,” and the longer answer is, “There are none, don’t even try.” |

You and others who support this person, in almost every case, mention Obama and Clinton. In every rally, Trump had his minions shouting loudly..."lock her up" or chanting about the election being rigged. While your copied quote from that Christian webiste may be true in general, why does that not apply to those who USE hate as a tool to garner support. Political differences are one thing and should be discsussed as political differences but general condemnation of any group, Progressives, blacks, immigrant or whatever is just anger and hate yet you ignore that factor it seems |

Like I have said before, it's not personal. If I attack defensively, it's just my wish to shut someone up so that we can discuss issues not someone's petty little petulance over losing the election. I normally do not stay on a political forum after an election, just during the campaign. I have already gotten a bit bored with the childish crying on here and accusations of someone or another being a big meanie. For crying out loud if you don't like what someone says, either buck up and take it like an adult or leave. Adults do not need an "ignore" button. Adults walk away or pass over/around the petulance. Nothing personal TAL. It does not even bother me when you don't get my moniker correct. Sometimes I even grin when I see the spelling. Don't worry, I won't be on here much anymore. Only when I am bored, if that. Most likely I will forgo the useless banter and wait until another campaign season starts. That is, if I even care by then. To make this post relevant, I am very satisfied with what Trump has been accomplishing so far, even with all the adversity. He has far exceeded my expectations. To think, I didn't even vote for him in the primary. My thoughts have been wondering lately just how long it will be before the left wakes up and see that they have been scammed by their so-called leaders. I wonder when you all will realize how dangerous George Soros is to democracy and freedom. I wonder when you all will finally be relieved that Hillary did not get elected, and realize what would have happened if she had been. I am not fond of Trump's tweeting. I don't tweet so I have to take someone else's word for it that he should not be doing it. I don't even listen to his speeches. I am following what he is doing, and I am pleased. By the way, if you want to watch a good and decent Democrat, follow Joe Manchin from WV. He seems to remind me of the old Democratic party, when some Dems were still moderate if not a bit conservative. The party of my father. The party that I left because it had been taken over by socialists. |

Sometimes people are just tired of other peoples stupidity or bullsh!t. The correct answer...call the Highway Patrol...report the driver. You don't run away and make him someone else's problem. Quote:

Time to end this thread. It's repeating the nasty comments over and over again. Boring!
