Back in our day ( although many people haven't a clue about the culture back then ), there were morals and codes which were adhered to.Southend High Street a few days ago. About 10 onto 1 apparently, with the guy on the floor helpless. That's brave of them. I think the older guy in the grey shirt was trying to stop them. Thankfully, no serious injuries. It's very noticeable that the High Street is much rougher nowadays, and a lot more edgy as you walk along it, especially around teatime.
Absolutely T. Of course there was a lot of fighting back in our day when we were youths, probably more fighting than today, as there was no internet, no over a hundred TV channels and other modern entertainments. and no CCTV. So there was more youths out on the streets and at youth clubs etc. There was fighting on the busses even, as different areas and schools were at each other, and we all travelled by bus. But if someone went down, their fight was over, like you say. None of this kicking them when they are down, and especially not stamping on their head like a lot seem to do nowadays. And, I never saw 10 onto 1, or anything like it.
Plus seven years on a register. I'd say his future outlook isn't great.
The public humiliation and disgrace of a previously well regarded and well known television figure, coupled with his marriage breakdown and current hospitalisation seems punishment enough.
No it doesn’t. Not when you can get 18 months for mean facebook posts. Chop his balls off.
Did he pay the fortune back the BBC paid him, whilst suspended?.
No, nor will affect his big fat pension.
A mean Facebook post is commenting about someone’s choice of bridesmaids dresses.
I am pretty sure most people don’t lose their pension after getting pinched.
Do you think they deserved the sentences they got?
A now convicted nonce gets a suspended 6 months prison term and hurty words on social media (whilst diabolical comments) or just standing filming a protest get you sent to prison for nearly 2 years. I'm sorry but that is just pathetic.
