After all, since he really doesn't see them as people, he shouldn't care, right?

      Please do me a huge, huge, size-of-Trump's-ego personal favor and stop derailing this thread from the interesting discussions Leonhard has been facilitating.
      Yep because wanting to kill children is no big deal.

        Got to love how approving of killing children, at most, gets a polite response from you, but 'being disruptive' makes you more upset. Why does 'being disruptive' make you more upset than the thought of somebody killing a child?

          Even if it were true that starlight was seriously advocating for infanticide, and I see no good reason to read his original remarks that way, it's irrelevant to the discussion in this thread.
          Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.

            What's more disturbing is how few people seem to care much and think 'being disruptive' is worse than the thought of killing children is.

              Being disruptive = something to whine and complain about.

              Thought of killing children = no big deal.

                I'm not upset at all - just annoyed. How many threads are you going to do this? At a certain point you have to just let a dead dog lie, and move on to something more interesting. If his posts disturb you then you should consider putting him on ignore.

                  So 'being disruptive' is a bigger deal than advocating killing children. Got it.

                      I've PMed the civics moderators about LPOT's conduct. I'd like it a lot if we could drop that off-topic discussion for now and focus on the actual topic of this thread.

                        I need to see a 'doctor' about the fact somebody is advocating killing children and others are making excuses for it and could care less. Wow...

                          Sorry, man, they are not going to do anything about it. It's been like this since I joined the forum and I tried to get them control her back then. There are no rules against trolling people on this forum, and that's because a lot of the 'Holding clones' enjoy being as nasty and hateful to people as possible. She's kind of a throw back to when the forum was overrun with them, and she's friends with all the moderators, so she'll be allowed to be this way for as long as this forum exists.

                            No, you need to see someone because you've obviously lost the ability to control your emotions over some opinion you heard on the internet. Ignore him if you don't like his views. Right or wrong, at a certain point you have to let even the most disgusting views roll off your back, and move on to other conversations.

                              Yeah because you know advocating killing children and treating them as disposable people shouldn't bother you at all... Who cares? It's no big deal to advocate that we should treat an entire group of people as disposable. Not like any groups ever got into power that advocating treating an entire class of people as disposable, right? How dare I actually get upset over such things! Do tell James, would you be upset/annoyed if somebody told you they wanted to round up all Muslims to take care of terrorist? Why should you get upset about such thing? It's just an idea held by some people online. It's not like those people have ever came into power, right? Reality:

                              Advocating killing gay people for being gay = immoral.
                              Advocating getting rid of Muslims to 'prevent' terrorism = immoral.

                              They all relate together here and how the whole 'homophobia' thing comes about. Should all people, regardless of age, sex, or orientation, have rights or not? Should we be disturbed when others advocating taking the rights away from others? Yes or no?

                                I've come across those people all over the internet - where things are far worse than this little forum. You know what I do? Pwn them back to the stone-age one time, and then not respond to them ever again. Is that hard for you? Put the guy on ignore and stop derailing all the other threads, just because YOU want to discuss it.
