People have used many applicable words to describe him, non of them complimentary. A complete and utter lack of respect for anyone but himself is as good a summary as any. Obviously vengeful as well.
He's either an under-rock dweller of the highest order or indeed a sociopath. Either way I don't believe he is welcome, liked or even respected by the vast majority of decent Arbtalk users.

My excessive use of emojis has been well documented of late.

 

Take no heed of them for they are meaningless gibberish.

 

Surely a price rise in the likes of Weatherspoons caused by an increased wage for the workers there is an acceptable price to pay? If a knock-on effect of this price rise is junkies, drunks and bums no longer frequent their establishments and allowing the return of honest working members of the public and their family’s can only be seen as a positive, no?

So you were making a deliberately vicious comment directed towards another member of the forum and their family then,  without any real provocation!

Just as I thought.

Again no.  

 

I was highlighting a list of benefits brexit has brought or could bring us. If one of the glaringly obvious reasons a price increase somehow touched on a yet nameless member it was purely accidental.  

 

The fact that this type of establishment is filled on a daily basis with the types of people I’ve highlighted is hardly unknown. 
 

I think you’re adding two and two together here and getting five. You’re letting personal views of me get in the way of a logical debate.

I do believe he gets sexually aroused by insulting people. he is on my ignore button but I do see  other's quoting  him.

thankfully my kids were raised in the country, all in late 20s now and cannabis was never an issue. my 2 brothers' kids were raised in the suburbs in Nottingham where apparently, teenagers doing spliff was the norm and they succumbed to schizophrenia, one nearly taking his life and is now in long term care.

if he calls these kids junkies i wonder what he calls other drug users.

Definitely a good plan with making that decision regarding the troll. I don't really see why he hasn't received a permanent ban for his persistent abuse directed towards other members of the forum. It would certainly be a much nicer place without the abuse and belittling comments that come from his direction. Undoubtedly he can make constructive contributions in several areas of the forum, but can't help himself from showing his true colours on a regular basis.

Despite mental health awareness being greatly improved in recent years and their being a greater degree of acceptance and reduced stigmatisation of those who have mental health conditions, there are still plenty around who see no issue with throwing insults at those who are suffering with things that they don't have any understanding of. 

Through one aspect of my work I've come across several people in a similar situation to your nephew and it is heartbreaking for all of those around them to have them succumb to such a serious lifelong condition. Unfortunately due to the prevalence of home produced high strength cannabis strains, compared to what was in regular use 20+ years ago, this problem seems to be increasing greatly, as these highly psychoactive strains are being accessed by users from a young age when they are potentially most vulnerable to the negative effects.  

Despite having it pointed out to him previously by several, he seems unwilling to see that issues around excessive drug and alcohol use are far more complicated than people just being pissheads or junkies.

Already done by myself and the Mrs Mark, not sure if you think I’d not read an article or not aware of its contents. My main point is it’s received virtually zero publicity.

I added the link for the benefit of other people who aren't as meticulous as yourself.

Of course it hasn't received any publicity, there's no way that they're selling off the NHS.
