If someone calls you a dumbass, it’s serves no purpose to respond “that was not very polite”.
As Allan has said before, words have meanings and consequences. But will the Right tone down the vitriol first?[/quote]
It wasn’t the right that came out guns blazing point to the left as the reason of the shooting. It was quite the opposite. The left planted the seed most of the media propagated it. The right hand no choice but to defend themselves and the left then points at their defense as vitriol. Give me a break.
