Who all are you talking to? It's possible to talk to people about politics without having to shout. I do it with my girlfriends family everyday and with people at work.


The net seems much more hateful these days. Then of course there is TV where they get paid to be *******s to each other..

Hate to tell you this, but there IS name calling here on Apolyton.

It's much worse on other sites where the mods sometimes seem to encourage it.

I'm sure there's a lot more name calling going on in Mingapulco's waterfront bars.

I don't know anything about those so-called right-wing sites, but as far a I can tell, the left specializes in trying to silence the opposition and/or attacking them personally rather than responding to their arguments.

Really? Do you have any backup for that assertion Ned? Heaven forbid lovely right-wingers would never do anything like that...

Why do you think Ann Coulter makes so much money? She insults liberals so we don't have to.

I know you must be joking, Ben. Ann has been repeatedly attacked with pies and hatemongering at her recent speeches by the left in an all out attempt to silence her.

Provost, I have NEVER, EVER heard of an American right-winger trying to SILENCE the left by physical attacks. The American right-wing stands for liberty, especially for the right to speak. It is the left here that constantly tries to silence the opposition.

And vice versa. I don't care about your hearsay...provide evidence...

Yep, those trolls at Free Republic are sooooooo left wing.

The left does not try to scilence our opponents. The Right does by calling everybody who disagree's with them as unpatriotic commienazis who hate America and love terrorism. *vomit*

1. The physical attacks on Coulter and other right wing speakers.

2. PC liberalism on college campuses.

3. Giving conservative students failing grades if they speak out.

4. Shouting down conservatives on TV "debates." On a recent view program, Rosie shouted and screamed everytime Sean Hannity tried to talk. I have seen this behavior from so, so many lefties as to be beyond number.

etc., etc., etc.

I have to admit, though, that Savage, a right winger, does the same to liberal callers. But he is the exception.
