    To eat pieces of his dead sons still warm flesh is part of his culture and to criticise him would be to discriminate and we just cant do that can we?

    Do Pavee Point have a policy on Cannibalism?

    ok the thread isnt about traveller's,its about the fact he ate a piece of his son while he was on the trolley dead in hospital.

    find a different thread to traveller trash talk or start your own

    It was a great interview. Very honest. The shocking part of it really had my jaw on the floor. Crazy stuff. I hope to God I'm never put in the same position he was but if I was I dont think eating flesh would be the first thing to come into my head.

    They seem to be rather quiet on Slavery, so we may have to wait to hear them defend cannibalism

    Im glad i didnt, a vile act for a vile man


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 789 ✭✭✭The Internet Explorer


    No big deal. I think Paddy's alright. He seems genuine. And respectful. It is fairly f*cked up I suppose but let us not forget that he just lost his son and wasn't thinking as one normally would. We are but mere animals and this may have been just some sort of deep, peculiar natural instinct. It may also have been slightly exaggerated.

    As I said, it's fairly f*cked up but eats to their own.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭Auldloon


    I can understand the reason he would have done that but to speak about it on tv is just media whoring.

    Well do share?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭Auldloon


    Well for the reasons he mentioned. It was his child, he owned him as he says himself and it was his way of keeping some part of the boy alive.
    Bear in mind he exaggerates everything so kissing the bleeding wound is probably what he means by eating him.
    Anyway time for breakfast:D

    He is a lot of things, however, he is not a vile man

    Watched him on the UK Celeb BB & he's actually very decent, kind, and genuine.

    Probs more decent than yourself, in fact.

    He doesn't have an off button and i think spoke last night out of emotion to be honest

    OH COME ON!! how is defiling a corpse not a vile act for fúck sake! have you lost your marbles?


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 10,446 Mod ✭✭✭✭xzanti


    I can understand the sentiment behind what he did.. but it doesn't make the act itself any less hideous IMHO.

    Although I'm sure logic and 'what's appropriate' probably goes out the window when someone is the deepest throws of grief.

    do you know alot about the man, or are you just going by this thread?

    you must do, seeing as you called him a vile man?

    he'd just lost his son, and was out of his mind with grief, wasn't accountable for his actions, as he must have been so distressed?

    i've not lost my marbles, i felt sorry for him last night - he was in tears talking about it.

    Hope you never go through the pain of losing a child, who knows what'd you do??? :rolleyes:

    He seems to have good faith in God and religion.. would have been fun to have him on with the lot from few weeks back who were complaining about religion being pushed upon their kids in the Catholic schools that they knowingly put their kids in:D

    I've forgiven many acts from many people in my time. I forgave a friend that strangled me when I accidentally killed his pet. I forgave my cousin when his sister died and he punched my mother. Most of all I forgive anyone pretty much anything when they are staring at the corpse of their child.

    Grief is a personal thing and none of us will ever know how he felt at that point, how his mind thought. It is often at these points that you think most clearly.

    He never wanted to lose his son, he wanted him to be a part of him forever so he did what he believed to be true, he consumed a small part of him.

    I'll not judge this act, I hope I am never in the same position. He will never forget the pain of that loss.

    Why is everyone talking about cannibalism? I watched the interview and all he said was he drank the young lad's blood.... never heard a mention of eating flesh

    Plus many (usually lurid)reports of cannibalism among tribal types were actually funerary rites. Where people consumed parts of loved ones and even vanquished enemies as a respectful act. It seems to be quite a deep seated response. Sure it may shock most nowadays, but quite a number of cultures out there would have looked on that interview and nodded.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Seems as inhumane and vile as burning a family members corpse and keeping the ashes on the mantle piece, which is a very acceptable form of grieving in many countries.

    In india they burn bodies and let them float down the river.

    It was not like he tucked into a medium rare steak of his sons calve muscle.

    It was a symbol (i wouldnt do it but i dont think its barbarian, just unusual)

    He has a different way of life and set of morals than most of us and i dont mean that in a derogatory way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 699 ✭✭✭Table Top Joe


    Jesus Christ,just saw the interview,he drank a little bit of his dead sons blood in his overwhelming grief,didnt make a sandwich out of a baby or anything,it was actually very moving when he spoke of him,people who havent experienced that kind of grief have no idea what its like....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 821 ✭✭✭temply


    Delighted to see the compassionate replies goys...:)

    He is actually not too bad.. Interesting Character.. Was the best part of the late late..Certainly paints travellers in a different light,


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,562 ✭✭✭eyescreamcone


    A lot of people believe that they eat the body and blood of their man/god, Jebers Kriste, every Sunday morning

    Cannibalism is rife nowadays!!!
    (or at least the perception of cannibalism)
