Guest Gladstone Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 I've found myself shaking my head more and more whenever I hear/see the news lately. Here's a couple of stories that have really shocked me/pissed me off recently...BBC NEWS | UK | England | Merseyside | Boys bailed over anti-gay attackYoung lad minding his own business outside a club in Liverpool set upon by up to 20 thugs and hospitalised because he's gay. Fucking unbelievable.The Big Question: Why are pupils making so many false allegations against teachers? - Education News, Education - The IndependentThe story about pupils making false claims against teachers really pissed me off. At what point did we start taking the word of these little shitbags over that of teachers? I remember when I was a kid, if I got in trouble from a teacher and so much as breathed a word of it to my parents I'd have got in more trouble. If I tried to protest my innocence, or say the teacher was being in anyway unfair, my parents would always believe the teacher cos, well, they were the teacher and I was a fucking kid. These little bastards (and more so the parents who believe their every word) are ruining careers of teachers, and scaring so many people off of that career choice in the first place, it's ridiculous. An inherent lack of discipline in our country is evident, and something needs to be done. My wife is a teacher, but I'm so glad she's in primary schools, rather than in the Academy with these little conniving bastards.What is the bloody world coming to...

Bigsby Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 At what point did we start taking the word of these little shitbags over that of teachers? At the same point teachers started becoming paedophiles, ie in the last ten years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 I don't understand, with regard to the first story, why they have to treat this as a "homophobic hate crime" where I believe it's simply Grievous Bodily Harm. Homophobia was just the motive and people are thugs for any number of retarded reasons.And while I can't condone police brutality it would be only mildly unfortunate if they received a brisk beating around the kidneys with some rubber piping for this.

Homophobia was just the motive and people are thugs for any number of retarded reasons.And while I can't condone police brutality it would be only mildly unfortunate if they received a brisk beating around the kidneys with some rubber piping for this.I think, though not entirely sure, that if you add a homophobic/racist slant to attacks, that it's deemed more serious and the punishments can be harsher.But I agree with what you're saying in that if you beat someone up, it shouldn't really matter why you did it. There are no laws that make the crime worse for beating someone up because of hair colour, or weight, or the way they dress, but some idiots might give someone a bashing for any number of reasons.A 20 on 1 kicking for any reason is just mindless thuggery, and they're lucky they didn't kill the poor lad.

Guest Gladstone Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 The Baby P story is as horrific as they come. The broken back is just awful. I remember hearing that they thought that injury likely came about by being brought down on an adult's knee.How sick do you have to be to even contemplate shit like that, let alone carry it out?

Fish out of water Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 This should be renamed the 'Tut... Isn't It Bloody Awful' thread.or "The Outrage Thread". With regards to Baby P - Some people just shouldn't be allowed to have children in the first place if they're incapable of bringing them up. Many moons ago I was in a band and the Hammond player went as far as saying if you wanted kids you should have to apply for a licence and then be assessed on your suitability to have kids. Once you had passed the requisite requirements, you could crack on. Hey presto, no jakey kids, no more mini crime waves, and no more Baby P situations.Don't know if I'd subscribe to this - wee bit Big Brother and obviously for that reason it would never happen. Anyone else agree with this or something along these lines?And I know it was wrong of me to laugh - but the dog story was funny as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gladstone Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Don't get me started on today's parents...Would be fathers should have to sit an aptitude test before being allowed to use their cock.

Adam Easy Wishes Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Yup, social work departments would see their caseloads halved.That's not really a problem given the hours social workers I know work (in excess of 60 hour weeks on fairly regular occasion).

Norseman Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 BBC NEWS | UK | England | Nottinghamshire | Man charged over 'burglar murder'Little bastards shouldn't have been breaking in then...Totally agree, if you are caught in someones living room at 3 in the morning with the Wii under the arm then you should have to accept all what is coming. Would be a non case in the States and many other countries. Hopefully the guy gets a very light sentence but a shame his life has been screwed by these two little sh*ts, at least one of them got what he deserved.

TheTickingTime-Bomb Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Anyone else agree with this or something along these lines?That's actually an established theory in moral philosophy, but not the most radical one by a long shot.There are some excellent arguments to say that having kids at all is morally wrong.Have a look.Parenthood and Procreation (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
