This is the state of discourse in the country, and it's the biggest single threat our nation faces. I generally fall on the same side of most topics that I've seen discussed here as David. I've also called for him to be at least temporarily banned, because he consistently takes shots at people that he disagrees with, or posts trollish comments that just seek to belittle or insult the intelligence of anyone who holds an opinion that he disagrees with (though he didn't "start it" in this thread). Just like I do with others that do the same crap.

If you feel strongly enough about a topic that you want to insult someone over it because they disagree with you, then maybe take the time to form a valid take. If that's not worth your time, then maybe just be quiet.
