Disliking them in such an inflammatory way and calling them names is trolling, yes.

Making inflammatory statements such as "Sorry dudes, but Ron Paul fucking sucks", then going on to make offensive generalizations such as sexist and racist is most definitely.

*edit* Sorry if this sounds like a duplicate of the above post. His post snuck by me on the new page.

I don't care for Paul for the reasons I identified earlier, which I think anyone can understand as reasonable and well documented. I am not sure there's much legitimate basis to call him "racist" or "criminal" though.

This thread is itching for a lock...

I'd have to read through the thread again to be sure, but it seems like most of the inflammatory and disrespectful comments have come from people against Ron Paul. I think it sets a bad precedent to lock a thread in a situation like this because it would seem to encourage people to flame to the ground threads they don't like.

Like I said, I'm not sure this is the case. I honestly don't care to read through the entire thread again though.

Jeez. After reading this right after the "Megawhatever's dead" thread, lock the entire forum.

I'm kidding. But I'm not. But I am.

Just laugh it off. There's some mind-numbingly stupid statements both here and in the MU thread but the nonsense level isn't anywhere near close to some of the Ron Paul argument I've read. For the most part the MU argument is in good spirits (from what I can tell) but this one is getting nasty.
