You really need to know where to draw the line.

We are clearly going nowhere with this, so let's leave it at that

Yeah just go back to claiming anyone criticising you is clearly only doing it because you’re disabled.

Are you able to explain what you think 'The Daddy' is trying to say? It's ok if not, this is an area where my disability affects me.

Richard, it is not just Russ who thinks you are self-righteous...

Your posting style has changed very little since you made CF'ers aware you had medical issues - you come across as arrogant, become abrasive when challenged (sometimes with thinly veiled threats of legal action), and often escalate things.

This is nothing new, so using your medical issues is actually a smokescreen, imho.

Well we all know your obsession with everything "legal".

Seriously ?
After all your preaching, you're "blaming" his views on his "autistic condition".

You are just unbelieveable.

2019 is barely a week old and already we have post of the year.

Not normally thin or veiled. Just repetitive and lacking in action.

And don't think that this sort of thing only happens to other people. Someone, somewhere will go to bed tonight as they have countless times before and will have a stroke whilst they sleep. They may wake up unable to see, speak or walk ever again. This could be you and I bet you wouldn't find it funny if others found it amusing and objected when made to stop.

50% of us will get cancer, would you like to have a laugh at their expense whilst your at it?

My other half has cancer, she deals with it day by day often with humour and she certainly wouldn't want the likes of you sticking up for her or more likely using her condition as a cheap point scoring exercise

And last time I checked cancer isn’t a disability. Very low blow from you.

We agree on a lot Russ, except football of course

We’ve more than said our piece in here. So now back on topic.

Thanks Mick.

Facebook are complaining that their profits have been affected because they have had to take on 15,000 extra moderators. I say tough as they've made enough money off the backs of vulnerable people up until this new initiative to properly deal with internet bullies, trolls etc.

I know of a wheelchair user who was relentlessly abused and insulted on this platform in the past who is taking things further, which I fully support.

Not sure who said it. I was in a bad way yesterday, so spent the day drifting in and out of consciousness laid on the sofa with the TV on. It was tuned to the BBC News channel, so that's how I know it was said on the BBC. There might be something on the internet if you want to research this.

Edit: Found this:
