Question: Comment: While McNeil is trying to decide whether he is going to introduce a new tax in the form of a toll road, Nova Scotians are getting ready to kick his sorry butt out of office if he does. I voted Liberal last time, I won't make that mistake again if he adds another toll highway in this province.

Answer: Threat


Question: Comment: At least these scholars are thinking for themselves, not something that is encouraged much in our schools - but should be. Issues such as this should be up for debate in every school in the country not give rise to disciplinary hearings. Nevertheless it is a mystery firstly why the EFF find it necessary to resort to threats of violence in a matter that involves school children and secondly why anyone would report the comments of Kevin Pietersen who time and again has shown himself to be nothing but a disruptive twat who is unable to exercise any rational judgment before opening his trap.

Answer: Non-threat


Question: Comment: Principled?

Did you see this guy in his Matrix get-up, or hear about his campaign's attack on the whistleblower?

I don't think principled is a word that can get very close to most of these CPC hopefuls.

Answer:
Non-threat
