Freedom of speech innit? Anyway... So this administration is looking like the most corrupt & self serving since Grant before it's even started. Diabolical choice after diabolical choice, rewarding cronies rather than trying to govern for the whole of his party let alone the nation. My prediction is four years full of law suits against the president, corruption allegations everywhere and scandals galore. It will be painful to watch. |

We've already had a false start when Megyn Kelly denied Trump attempted to poison her, Here's hoping we get an early Christmas present. |

'Alwois look on the broit soid of loif.' And you always do. You brighten any thread. Oh, I'm far from being an optimist Carlton. I try to be a realist, and reality bites everyone, sooner or later (mind you, that might be being optimistic). Well. We are pessimists of course. It's bein' so cheerful as keeps us......................................... |

It'll probably be links to organised crime or tax evasion that comes to anything in reality. I'd put it as 50/50 at the moment, more likely than that if his administration is as terrible as it's looking like it will be. |

really love the white supremacist memes that are appearing on the site, not. Think I'll give it a rest for over he weekend. "Really love.........................................., Not!" Don't do that. It is so girlie 4th Form that it wrecks any argument. plus I need my fix. Spent five hours checking me Beatles records for spelling errors, not a Saturday night activity |

Reports that Ted Cruz is being considered for the Supreme Court Crazy if true. But of course a good way to get rid of him. What is your source? |

Reports that Ted Cruz is being considered for the Supreme Court So what is the point of releasing a list of 20 potential names before the election and then ignoring all of them? |

Too many people who criticise political correctness and safe spaces are really just wanting the world to be their kind of political correctness and safe space. The cast is there solely to perform a play and entertain a public who pay a lot of money to see them. Singling out a member of that paying audience to be harangued by one member of the cast as he leaves after the performance is utterly disgraceful. How would the cast feel if Pence stood up during the performance with a bull horn and harangued them because one member had been to a Hilary Rally and been rude about him, or he disagreed with the politics of the play? Actors are there to remember their lines and to entertain and they should do that and mind their bloody manners. |

As far as I've read, the actors acted in a respectful manner, and it should be the right of every citizen to freely address those who govern them. Doesn't mean I share the actors' views, but these views were brought across in a decent manner, and no politician should have a problem with that. What I found disrespectful however was the jeering by parts of the audience. |

I stand by my contention that this is inappropriate because of both context and contract. The audience pay to have a seat and to witness an entertainment. It is no part of the deal that they be addressed personally and individually. The audience have paid to be there and are not a free target as would be the case on a casual meeting on train or in the street where an attempt may be made but where there is no duty on the victim to stand and listen. |

Is this a bit like Kanye West praising Trump on stage the other day? Sure, he can have a rant if he likes, but no one has paid to see him do that, nor do they give a shit.
Though in the case of Kanye West, that was probably more entertaining than his music.

I am increasingly embarrassed by the fact that I lack the moral courage to overtly back Trump. I would suggest that you have picked the wrong thing to be embarrassed about. |

If people like you are unhappy with his choices, it's surely a sign that he's doing something right. Fascist tells me I've got it all wrong. Damn... |

However, said entertainment is politics-themed and the comment wasn't an attack, but a general advice quite in line with the musical. |
