Are we now permitted to directly accuse other posters of being criminals?

I don't mean the old "You sound just like a...," but rather statements like "you are a rapist" or "you are a felon" or "I know you beat your wife" - direct claims that another poster has committed a crime rather than the "clever" hints that some posters use to skirt the rule.

Are these okay now, or are these still not permitted?

Thank you! :)

I think when the Marxists, started calling President Trump worse than Adolf Hitler, that opened pandora's box for insults.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never harm me.

Precious snowflakes just doesnt understand that epic statement.
 
Forum Rules state:
  • No accusations of other members relating to bestiality, grooming, or pedophilia. If you suspect a forum member is involved with grooming and/or pedophilia, DM the mods with your suspicions and evidence.

Interesting - thank you!

So it's a platform violation, but not a forum violation.

You might want to review the platform rules and incorporate those rules, or at least those - as with defamation - that would create clear legal issues.

I incorrectly assumed this had been done.

No - that's just opinion.


Well, it is my opinion that most Democrat Voters would love to get their hands on unaccompanied children, just to have a little fun with.

Again, the above is opinion, so fine.

I don`t recall anyone calling Trump worse than Hitler. Why do you Trump Humpers lie so much? Because your boss does it is no excuse.

Normally on forums, you're supposed to attack/address the arguement and not the poster. On USMB, that goes out of the window about 50 times every second.
