An opinion is an opinion. Everyone has them. Especially you. If you dont like it dont attack someone.
- vancity787

Exactly. But again, what you see as an attack could just be anothers opinion.

This list is as stupid as someone calling someone else fat. I think both sides in this case are idiots, on different levels.

It's completely different to call someone fat than to call someone an idiot for their opinion...one is bullying, one is rudely criticizing someone

Just because you "can" say something doesn't mean you should..... Right Paula Deen!

My point exactly. More to my point though, is that if you're going to say something, then you should be held accountable.

No, in the case of calling him fat, that is bullying, not an opinion...saying he's got no hockey knowledge is an opinion...there is a difference there

But in this case, how far do you have to go before your "opinion" of someone becomes bullying someone?

I dont think anybody is being bullied in this case.

both could be seen as bullying as much as they can be seen as expressions of ones opinion or view on things.

Calling someone fat for having an opinion is the same as being a racist or a bigot for someone having an opinion...if Cloutiers opinion was in any way racist or bigot related, then that would be warranted...but calling him fat had absolutely nothing to do with what the guy said in the first place...it was just an out right insult, you dont see to see the difference between criticizing someone and out right insulting and bullying them

a view of a hockey team could never be considered bullying...making fun of someones weight on the other hand is out right bullying

woah..okay...i think this is where this conversation ends.

A friend? Im defending freedom of speech. That is HIS opinion of Cloutier. Whats the issue here?

Its Freedom of Speech not Freedom to be a D1ck

I dont think he made fun of his weight. He just called a fat man fat. Thats honesty son.

Oh im still here. Ive just decided you're completely clueless and have a rather weak stance on your end of this debate. You're fat.

Of course you kid. We have the freedom to do/be both.

The problem is that people have the freedom to be puss1es too, and they abuse that right.

I'm 5'10" and 125LB, see you don't know anything about me... but you attempted to bully me in the same way that Cloutier was technically bullied, not that I think Cloutier gave a crap, I was just pointing out its not an opinion to call someone fat...and it was not relevant to anything he said in the first place...

As I said, sad attempt at bullying, its not an opinion when you say that and you don't seem to see the difference I don't think you ever will either

So, how long have you been fat? Are you Cloutier size?

Good to see you hold yourself in high regard! There is a thing called "class" and as someone mentioned before respect needs to be earned and you my friend have NO clue on how to earn it!

Im just here busting balls. I have no interest in doing anything more than rattling cages and preying on the easy targets who get riled up with minimal effort.

Oh wait...you're bullying me aren't you!?
