Surely any anonymous response should have been dropped straight in the bin without even reading it? As for the others, they should have been published, with full details, just like any other, hiding them is not the answer. Only defamatory or otherwise considered illegal communications should have been withheld and those put before the Courts. I see this not necessarily an indictment against our society, more a significant failure in our education system, where we now have significant numbers unable to express themselves, let alone think, in a reasonable manner

Do you mean think in a manner that you find acceptable? People have the right to protest as long as it is legal. Protesting that the area does not have enough parking is not in any way a bad thing.

I would suggest to you as well that most people would not want the establishment next door to them because it would be busy and noisy.
Would you? And be honest...

That's not the issue though. The issue is the language the objectors used.

But we don't know what was written though. People find the strangest things to get upset about, point in question, headteachers have been told not to call female pupils 'girls' or 'ladies' as it might cause anxiety. Seriously?

You're actually thinking of genderphobia, it's a new Libtard cause.

Although it’s the right wing that have been scientifically shown to be thick so perhaps it should be reactard.

Could you direct us to that enlightening piece of research please?
Particularly interested to see if it uses the word "thick".
Thanks.

It’s called a synonym. Google it.

Ah, I see.
So the research you refer to doesn't use the term "thick" it's just a synonym you decided to use.
Again, can you direct us to this piece of research so we can adopt our own synonyms to use with it.
Thanks.

At least it had the decency to tell the reader it was pseudo science, just to avoid confusion amongst the rest of the flat earth society and liberal readership.

Pseudoscience is the missuse of science, the article appears to be simple satire and fiction, perhaps as a retaliation by right-wingers being accused of lacking certain skills others take for granted.

"Certain skills others take for granted"? Care to elaborate? I'd love to know why newres thinks he is more intelligent than the likes of je suis and me (without resorting to google)...

I think more open minded and fair minded. Above, rather than accepting that many objections would have been racist and full of hate and condemning it, your response was more or less can you blame them and it’s all probably exaggerated.,
