I dont think I have ever been offended at a headline, never not once, perhaps disagreed and frustrated at something for a fleeting moment but never offended.

We have you going balistic and to a small degree undermining your moderation position, you then have your mate thinking their was a genuine call to arms and the clamp putting up pictures trying to be funny and HT losing all respect for me, respect I mean how does that work on a footbal forum with me called BigGully ........ all about a headline in The Mail.

Let's park the headline for a moment. The bit I have bolted.....do you genuinely not understand this? I mean really? Or are you being deliberately obtuse?

Leave voters really have shown themselves for what they are since the latest democratic decision was made. A bunch of ill informed, bigoted numbskulls who don't and cannot understand what they voted for or the implications of such a vote. Wallys.

I'm not so sure about that actually, I'm more inclined to think their right wing agenda is in jeopardy and because they are not completely honest about it in the forum it just comes across as idiotic ???

Yep, and The Express front page is even more of a worry, if anyone is to take it seriously. It's basically a call to arms, and the comments online show that there are many who are foaming at the mouth, ready to respond.

This country is massively divided. It can only end badly.

It will only end badly if the will of the democratic majority is overturned or diluted to a point that makes it virtually meaningless (soft Brexit?).

The OTT response from some papers should be a wake up call to those who think going back on or diluting the result is in any way an option. It isn't.

Fortunately I think the court decision will either be overturned on appeal or a triggering of article 50 vote will be put before parliament asap, which will pass. Any attempts to add amendments/ block or slow this process will be rightly seen as attempts at circumventing the referendum result.

along with a Labour MP gunned down in the street, and a Polish man being kicked to death in Harlow for being Polish. Corbyns reach is long obviously.
....about as tenuous as saying that the Polish lorry driver smashed into and killed those Brits because they were British.

Two headlines have offended me in the past both the sun "Gotcha" and "The Truth.

What would you like me to say, you said you have lost all respect for me due to my view on a piece in The Mail newspaper, it seems a little churlish to me, but you said it but its only words it doesnt harm me and I gave a bit back to you.

Parliament needs to decide how Brexit will happen. Your response suggests that the choice on the ballot paper was crystal clear, and that the choice was Hard Brexit or carry on as we are. It wasn't.

Nobody knew what they were voting for. If you really think that the 'will of the people' is for a Hard Brexit...well, I think you are wrong. And if you are right I despair for this country even more than I had previously imagined possible.

48% voted against this train-wreck and deserve compromise. We'll leave but hopefully Parliament will ensure not on terms that will further destabilise the economy. If we have to pay into the EU and accept free movement it is a price worth paying for access to the single market.

You need to get a bit of balance here Mr Dutch Cap... I don't read either the Mail nor your preferred Guardian.... but their own report into online readers comments , have the top 10 most abused guardian columnists/journos as being made of 8 women and 2 men... 7 of them black???.... surely not misogynistic and racist Guardian readers.... the review was taken across 70 million comments and articles since 2006... telling??

I have never bought the Guardian in my life, so you'll have to make something else up.

As for the rest of it, I've literally no idea what point you are trying to make, that is in any way relevant to the frightening /offensive DM front page?

Well you need to get a bit more perspective on newspaper headlines, its a headline, just because you disagree with it and feel particularly angry at it, its only a headline and not a call to arms, it really isnt .....

So what is the paragraph that states

'Your country needs you more than ever because we must leave the EU. Rise up people of Britain and fight, fight, fight.'

Is insurrection in the air?

'If' ..... still tenuous... articles says nothing

Yeah ok, the police are investigating a possible hate crime to build up overtime.

You didnt seem to think that the deaths of two people linked to Corbyn being 'tenuous' ? Yet two well documented cases, of which there was none .. ie nothing to back up his assetion from Rokerite, apparently are. Funny.
