    Really disturbing stuff,


    Romanian police are investigating after a video emerged showing a gang of local youths outside a bar grabbing an elderly woman and swinging her around as she screams in terror

    Source

    Absolute scumbags, should be put down.

    I thought it was fake, quality is crap on my phone.

    She sounds terrified!

    Do Romanian grannies normally wear runner-boots like that?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,166 ✭✭✭Fr_Dougal


    They got some fairly decent spin on her...

    If anyone frightened and manhandled my granny like that, I'd want to kill them.

    I laughed, but it takes very little to tickle my chuckle muscle.

    What about the second and subsequent times she went around?

    That's really savage behaviour:mad:
    I think that video should be removed and banned just in case it prompts other kids to do the same.

    It hasn't been proven fake yet.
    “We are looking into this incident. We want to know when this video was shot, where it was shot and who the people were in the video. A report will then be prepared for prosecutors who will decide what action to take”, a local police spokesman told CEN.

    Doesn't look fake, i'd imagine the old lady is well known for being a bit mad around town and the lads thought they'd have a bit of fun at her expense


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,679 ✭✭✭hidinginthebush


    Pffft.. it's called git surfing :rolleyes:

    Well prehaps the Daily Mail should not be reporting on a story that is inconclusive ..oh wait its the Daily Mail..:rolleyes:

    Fake.

    'She' also looks/sounds like E.T


    Wouldn't be so sure, the story was covered by the Herald Sun, NEWS.com.au, MSN NZ News, New York Daily News, Mirror.co.uk, The Independent, The West Australian, DigitalJournal.com, TheBlaze.com, RYOT, Opposing Views, Metro, Huffington Post, and the Daily Mail. (see here)


    Not only that but it has been confirmed that the police are looking for the man.

    Also,
    The ‘granny spinner’ was identified on Facebook with the username Eu Geo Offycyall and posted under the video saying anyone who didn’t like him could get lost.

    “It was just a joke. She wasn’t dying”, he said.

    "Joke" or not, she definitely wasn't in on it.

    Very true, if indeed this video is genuine and it's not one of their mates in a mask or some sh1t like that, then it could prompt brainless copy cats to do that over here...

    I think most people would agree with me that if this was done to your mother/Grandmother then the person responsible would be eating dinner fed by a nurse through a straw for many many months....

    She is probably a spinster.

    Surprised that it didn't happen in Dublin, seems like the sort of thing our local scumbags would do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    It will now, Dub scummies are just not good at being original.
