It's a sad reality of our society, and some of it is promoted by politics. People that reach adult age don't speak like adults any more. No one reasons, debates, has facts to back them up, listens to the other person's view point or treats people with respect. It's just all out attack and mud-slinging before you even know what the problem is or fully understand anyone's position. I tried to communicate with some of these people and it's like speaking to the wall and the names I was called is both funny and sad that people think like this today. Someone said it's like speaking macro-economics to Otis Campbell on Mayberry RFD... LOL (He's the drunk, but I suggest these people aren't nearly as nice as Otis was). Just stay away. Many people that post here are hateful, juvenile and have mental disorders. You start down a slippery slope of blocking free speech. But, I wish these people would elevate themselves and stop the hating. I hate to think we are digressing as a species. People that want to have a nice chat with other people about a story can't do that here on AOL.

Nobody is forcing anyone to go to the comment threads. If you don't like the comments, just don't look at them and instead close the article... just like you can change channels on TV if you don't want to watch a program. How is it dangerous if your address, phone number and email address are not available on comment threads?

The vile, ignorant filthy comments left by hate-filled individuals(and most likely russian bots), is appalling. If Facebook is held accountable, AOL should be as well. You need to stop this.
