    Basically a camera crew goes around filming homeless people to beat the ever living sh1t out of each other and to also perform jackass type stunts .... for food and money ..hahaha CLASS !

    This show is as bad as Tom Green.... Its inhumane...
    Saw some of it on the News and was appauled
    They pay the homeless victims off "AFTER" they attack them in most cases.
    So technically it is unprovoked assault.

    Whats next??? Live rapes?...
    But don't worry. They didn't press charges... :(

    oh and the subject for this thread is wholly inappropriate

    I stand by my subject, "Americans -good for something" ie: the weirdest "entertainment , Have you ever seen FOX ?

    "when surgery goes wrong !!!" and the likes.

    Personnaly i found it funny .. im not going to apologise for that

    And Mr. Applepie you want to hit me ? an unprovoked attack ..hmm hypocritical (sp?) dont you think ?

    you peple take some of this stuff to serious .. have you ever laughed at someone elses mis-fortune ? Of course you have


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Well, now I will laugh if someone places you under misfortune. I'd like to see how you like it.

    But just once.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭Gaz

    I saw clips on Sky News and I thought it was disgraceful. It is a shocking diminutive ploy by some TV exec's who have then tried to turn it on its head to say they are actually helping homeless ppl.

    I felt sick after watching it.
    They had guys headbutting concrete walls and being hit with metal sheeting just for a few bucks.
    It was disturbing in the least.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,079 ✭✭✭Mr.Applepie


    This is some stupid network(i didnt even click the link) paying homeless people to beat eachother up yes? You dont find that appaling? You dont find taking advantage of people who are absolutely desperate for a bit of cash bad no?

    Actually you even say they are payed in food sometimes yes? And when you hear this you think "omg lol pld etc."? the fact that someone is so hungry for a bit of food that they will beat someone up for it? This doesnt make you sad? It doesnt make you think "omg the poor guy!"? You need to take a good look at yourself as the mere thought that someone could think up something like this would sicken most people and absolutely sickens me!

    Do they they excuse by saying "hey were helping these guys out. Were giving them food and money" Yeah great help:rolleyes:

    Dont get me wron g im no angel i give change to homeless people when i have it and not much else but omg bah im just so angry that someone could find something like this funny!

    Do you not see how degrading this is? Oh and the only reason i want to hit you is to knock some fúcking sense into you!
    im not out there filming it
    Well woopdy fúcking hoo!

    The rest of my post will be taken up by angry faces::mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    sounds good
    this dvd gonna be region 2?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭Gaz


    Mr Applepie dont even try to assume you know what type of person i am because i laughed at some homeless guy running into a wall.

    I posted that link to show what Americans think passes for entertainmet. I watched a small part of the video and laughed ...big fuking deal , that dosnt mean " I need to take a look at myself"

    Maybe im just not as easily offended as you , yes its shocking that that they can even get away with doing this but i have seen worse , i didnt shed a tear for the poor homeless guy .... that makes me a bad person ?

    Fuk off and stick your angry faces up your ass !

    I think it really isn't a laughing matter..why was seeing someone being exploited in such a way fun?

    Not shedding a tear doesn't make you a bad person, but it doesn't make you a very good one either.


  • Registered Users Posts: 857 ✭✭✭Corega


    Sorry lads the first time I watched I was drunk, I wathched it again did'nt find it that amusing however I won't shed a tear for bums who actually feel they have to beat a fellow bum up they could of course clean themselves up and get a ****in job, even a menial one, which might be easier in the long run.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭Gaz


    but it doesn't make you a very good one either

    ohh for fuks sake , i give up ! Fine Im an evil horrible person, this really isnt worth the argument
