    This is a really over the top personal attack. Don't speak to me again on this forum please and don't quote me again EVER.

    You are on my ignore.

    Good bye.

    In fairness, they only responded to your post. And did so fairly imo. If you don't want contrary opinions, you shouldn't really take to a message board.

    He was show boating and pissed off. He should have called security or just told her to f*** off. You can't put your hands on people.

    If she didn't just leave and had something that could hurt before security came. When is acceptable to put your hands on someone? When they have hurt you?

    She was passing him. You can see he was prepared and waiting on her to come by. The idea he thought she might be armed is him covering his arse.
    If someone is coming at you yes of course.

    Of course you can. that's a ridiculous comment. He blocked her from passing and marched her out. The use of his hands was appropriate and justified.

    If it was a security guard doing the same thing would you still have the same opinion?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭AlphabetCards


    This thread stinks of incels/MRAs and lonely, mid-thirties single women. Go out and live your lives, ignore twitter and the news cycle. Its a non-incident, and boring meaningless ****e like this is only important to the media, who make money off your outrage.

    Have a nice weekend!

    Pertinent time to requote myself. There's so much more to life than getting wound up by this. You are chaining yourself to a computer, at the behest of an immoral and inflammatory media.

    THIS.DOES.NOT.MATTER

    Have a nice weekend.

    If it was a security guard you'd expect that they were trained to both assess the situation and to handle it without force if necessary.

    Neither steps were taken in this instance and Mr Field is not a security professional so there is no point discussing the what-if scenario.

    Because he was stopping her so she could not do. How do you know he is covering is it because he is a politician or a British politician. Maybe he thought security will not get here in time. If I saw a person who is not meant to be there stalking up you better believe I would stop them if I can


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,239 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes


    He knows he did wrong.
    It's just an another example of how screwed up the Tory party is though.

    Now we have it. This is nothing to do with the moment itself, it's because "THOSE POSH TORY TWATS" have something else to be beaten with.

    How's the campaign to get Justin Trudeau out of office going?

    Actually the what if scenario should be answered.

    1) if it was a man he tackled would you care and be outraged.
    2) if it was a woman who did the tackling would you care and be outraged.
    3) if it was anyone else but a politican would you care and be outraged

    I am not sure either. :(

    But the other forums are just dead.

    I probably don't belong here.

    Sad really people like me can't post here etc.

    But then maybe I don't belong. Not everyone can belong everywhere.

    I will see how it goes.

    I am answering honestly.


    I would be less outraged if he tackled a man. I think that is natural if people are honest.

    Yes if a woman tackled I would be outraged.

    If it was not a politician i would be less outraged.

    But he tackled a woman he is a man and a politician. So well here we are.
