Reply #34: While I understand the necessity [View All]

when dealing with someone like this, every time I hear the saw about giving her space, don't do anything that she might consider offensive or an attack, blah, blah - well, it starts to remind me of a hostage negotiation by a swat team.

People have to walk very carefully around her, and try to negotiate as you would with an unbalanced, unstable person holding hostages. And I find that idea offensive - but whatever it takes to make her back away is fine with me. No one should have to be walking on such a fine line with a person who offered herself as a presidential candidate - it is almost scary, because it is what I think about dictatorships and the like - the inability to be criticized, the non tolerance of dissenting opinions, and for the rest, read a little history, which is full of these kinds of situations.
