Oh...you see NOTHING wrong with such words?

Fine, then I shall use them against Cruz and his supporters,then, shall I ?

How about such words as : moron, idiot, drunk, stupid, and worse hurled at Trump supporters out of the blue, sans contex?

And NO, Trump didn't call those who aren't planning on voting for him, "stupid". The end of his comments were cut off.

You need to pay more attention to threads here; you'll see that what I have claimed is true.

Did I say I saw nothing wrong with those words?

I only asked that people try to scale back the vitriol, but I see that you didn’t get my request.

As a Trump supporter, you are sensitive to attacks on your guy, I get that. But at the same time, I can tell you that I have been at the receiving end of many unwarranted, bitter, vitriolic, over the top attacks, some with name calling, some not, all by Trump supporters. I was guilty of the merest, mildest criticism, some of it actually imaginary. The truth is that I have no real issue with Donald Trump. I actually admire the guy and think his presence in the campaign has been important and positive. Still, I prefer a different candidate, as is my right, is it not? So I don’t align too well with your holier-than-thou attitude.

I only appeal for a more civil tone all round.

Finally, your reference to the end of Trump’s comments being cut off are lost on me: I am unfamiliar with any part of what you are referring to. I wonder if you are actually replying to the right message.

Just to give you a bit of perspective here are two recent examples of inappropriate posts to me by Trump supporters:

“Why don’t you take your crappy snot and shove it down your freaking throat. And then go out and get a life.”

“If you had had a brain, you would have foreseen the obvious reply. But you don’t have a brain, so you didn’t see it coming.”

It is a toning down of these sorts of posts that I am appealing for. To be sure, I had made critical comments, but not abusive ones. That’s what makes these responses inappropriate.
