Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

And from the very same person who states they are not narcissistic and provides a series of statements on how great they are to disprove it I find this amusing. Narcissism is defined as:- “excessive interest in or admiration of oneself and one's physical appearance.” Nothing could be further from the truth. I only listed my actual attitudes in response to the suggestions made. Not because I am especially proud of them. I do what I can, because I can, and because I have learned over the years that being kind produces more than being unkind. I have much more interest in others, especially my wife of whom I am very proud, than myself. My physical appearance is nothing to get excited about and concerns me not at all. I am much more concerned, having got cancer, with my physical health. If admiration was something I craved is it likely I would come here to find it? It’s more likely I am a masochist than a narcissist, but I am not that either!

"Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee". Of course, it is! If people use these pages to make personal criticisms, rather than address the issues, then I have two choices. I either ignore them, which I do a lot, or defend myself, which I do sometimes. If the subject of any comment is me, then any answer is bound to be too. It's amazing that given the seriousness of what happened 2 days ago, people choose to attack me personally for attempting to identify and discuss the causes of it. Taking a step back and trying to see behind the immediate rather than adding to the speculation seems more rational and productive. at least to me. But hey ho, everyone else here always knows better, don't they? I am very concerned about where this could lead, but perhaps no one else is.

I don’t use the BBS and rarely, if ever, even visit it. I don’t like the format. However, having read the descriptions of the reactions there that some posters here have commented on I took a look. I found nothing but cool analysis. though I didn’t read every post. No wishing the gunman had succeeded, No development or circulation of conspiracy theories. No real discussion of the event itself. Just an analysis of why it might have happened and where it might lead us. It seems measured, articulate and intelligent. Not the least bit “lefty” at all, but balanced and objective. It was quite an eye opener, refreshing and reassuring to know that not all my fellow fans think and behave as do the majority here. I recommend you go there from time to time to read how others see things. However, before anyone suggests it, whilst I may take a look when anything momentous happens, it’s not for me on an average day. I don’t like the way it works, nor do I like having my views simply confirmed. Echo chambers aren’t interesting. You didn’t read it very well. Perhaps the posts you didn’t read would enlighten you somewhat

Back on topic, I notice Trump seems to be generating excitement wherever he goes now. That ear bandage is no doubt going to be a fashion accessory as we get nearer to polling day, When your country is literally being destroyed by globalists, you turn to anyone who might change it. Trump is not an ideal President, but he is a man who stands up to the people in the shadows who want to wreck our societies for their own greed and influence. Sometimes our saviours come from unexpected places.

When you try to justify the attempted assassination of a presidential candidate and blame the victim instead of the perpetrators, then you no longer deserve a voice as far as I'm concerned. I always defend the right to state opinions, and god knows, I have been on the other end of multiple verbal attacks just for doing so on the other site. That said, even I have a line that should not be crossed.

There is going to be significant upheveral whoever wins in November because the result isn't going to be accepted by the other side....legitimately or illegitimately. If Trump wins....which is highly probable....there will be riots by the Democrat's foot soldiers. If Trump is assassinated there will probably be some form of civil war or separation. Eventually separation is inevitable in America....I've been saying it for years....I just don't see how the polarisation is ended, it's two political tribes speaking two different languages with little in common.
Not so sure After this latest assassination attempt I'm 99% there that it's a Trump win. I also highly doubt we'll see the democrats pulling stunts like Trump and the Republicans did last time out. Interestingly the political separation was far more acute back in the day than it has been in recent history. Although clearly heading back that way now... People calling for Trump need to be wary of 'ol JD. He's backed by Peter Thiel – Vance could well be the puppet on the string the big tech lobby have been looking for. Will be interesting to see if he ends up being the next president after Donald, there's potential for him to be far more nationalistic and authoritarian, which would be interesting.

Perhaps the earlier ones were written by hotheads immediately after the event and cooler ones are prevailing now. The posts I read were all thoughtful and not controversial.

Will this ultimately make the USA a better place? Time alone will tell but it worries the hell out of me.

'then you no longer deserve a voice as far as I'm concerned.' Bit more than that wasn't it though? Champion of free speech? Walk the walk if you're going to talk the talk champ As we are so often reminded. Speech has never been completely free. There are limits to everything, and those limits are set by other people. I don't make the rules on here, but I do reserve the right not to interact with people who I find repugnant. Yes, I do champion free speech, but the response I would like to give to him is against the rules of this site. I am not free to express my feelings, but we still have to endure his sickening drone.
