I think views on Lewis are very much like the current Brexit debate in the UK, it's all or nothing, hate it or love it.

Merry Christmas to EVERYONE.

But for real, that a thread can be started with such an overt amount of hate, without a link, without a purpose but to slag on someone and be allowed to continue is beyond me.
Is this the community we want?
Anyways if this kind of veiled trash is allowed to be posted then I'm free to stand up against it right? |
