"Joking"
- Isn't it wired that ''jokes'' aren't funny, but instead are just morally bankrupt statements? You never see this with jokes, but boy are ''jokes'' just a bunch of hate speech. So strange.
  
  There are plenty of examples to show otherwise. There's an English comedian who has made that his whole schtick. But context and role are important. I'm guessing neither of those are relevant to this situation.
By the examples shown in that article, he is the standard conservative and probably thinks he is completely justified

A reminder to everyone seeing the troll in this (and future) threads. The faster people just block idiots like that, the better.

  Sometimes you have to go to that users profile page, I had to do the same since it didn't allow me to block off of the comment. Hope that helps!
death to my enemies! death to my rivals! death to my competitors! death to everyone standing in front of me in line!
He assumed he'd get away with it because of all the crap Trump got away with
- It gives me hope that Canada is not following what's happening in the US.
  
  We will be tested on that later this month.
As should be.
