    Problem is this hate mongering attitude gets spread down the family chain and guess what. .. people get shot , stabbed just because their dad thought the way he did. The word hate gets used on here on nearly every monarchy or political related thread. There are some seriously troubled people on here to feel so much hared against people they have never even met.

    'Hatred' is a strong word. I'm not so sure who the seriously troubled people are on here though to be honest. The only thing I hate is Barnsley losing and the treatment of fans by the BFC owners.
    P.s. I also hate blancmange. Horrible.

    **** me that's a distasteful post given the day's events - trying to equate me slagging off the Queen on a message board to the Amess murder.

    For what it's worth my mum is actually something of a royalist, my dad is indifferent. And don't you dare ******* suggest that I'm "troubled" or my children will grow up maladjusted because of my political views. *****.

    Personally I think it'd distasteful to use so many swear words to have try and prove your point.

    And to start to become aggressive on a message board in response to a post that contains opinion and no threat.

    It wasn't even a post in response to you.

    Shall we all respond henceforth in the manner that you have?

    What a wonderful world this would be.

    I didn't know asterisks were so offensive. It wasn't quoting me but it was talking about me and making comments and inferences about my family.

    Well if you are a lawyer and after considering the content of this thread, what would be your chances of proving libel against this chap?

    I would have done away with the monarchy today. I think that it is a rallying point for those who are invested in the last vestiges of the class system. However, 1) I think the present incumbent has done an exemplary job in the face of overwhelming geopolitical and societal change; 2) I have to accept that were it put to any sort of referendum, the monarchy would be reaffirmed by a massively bigger majority than voted for a ruinous brexit. So there it is.

    Zero. But I didn't accuse him of libel, I said he was being an asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk

    The asterisks usually cover up what you've actually posted, of an unacceptable nature. If you can be bothered to post asterisks (open to anyone's interpretation I suppose) instead of actual words, then you are in my opinion still expecting people to interpret them as derogatory swear words.

    I agree though - you didn't accuse him of libel. You accused him of other things directed at you which was tenuous at best and which certainly didn't warrant the abuse in return. Just my opinion.

    But if you want a board that liberates your kind of approach then fair enough. I don't.

    How was it tenuous at best? He responded to a post quoting me stating "your parents must be very proud of you". I notice you're not having a go at Dragon Tyke for having a personal dig at me. A dig which I laughed off, but I draw a line when comments are made about my family, or distasteful and sensationalist comparisons are made to the murder of an MP today.

    If you're that desperate to get on your moral high horse that you'll try and argue that Blood Red Sky's post wasn't directed at me then I don't know what to say.

    Presumably you want a board where someone’s free to give their opinion of an outdated hierarchy that gives rise to much of what’s wrong with the country without being subject to personal abuse too.

    Or is it only opinions you don’t share that you think should be challenged.

    Who could have forseen that a thread about the Monarchy would end up with folk at each others throats?

    Not I :rolleyes:

    I'm not on a moral high horse.

    Though I do get that quite a bit, so maybe I've got the visor pulled down when the lance gets shoved in my hand.

    My point is that the need is to argue your "opponent" down if you don't like it, not use anything more than superior words in the form of logic on a forum like this.

    I don't know how anyone with a bit of nouse can feel grievously wounded by the words of a poster on here.(Well not sufficiently enough to feel confident in their own view on life so as to have it rocked to the need for aggressive posts in response).

    I want people to give their opinions without the use of abuse or aggression.

    It's that simple.

    OK.

    Eventually.

    You need to stand up for your own view. Then agree to disagree.
