    How sheltered are you?

    The picture is harmless


    Ok.... Let's rejig this


    Some geezer is doing the doors at an underage disco. See's 2 teenagers getting jiggy, takes a picture, posts it on the internet. Is that OK?

    They're obviously not riding, she's just sitting on his laptop as couples do

    If you think there's something untoward going on in the photo you report it to the authorities, you don't repost it on a discussion forum like an attention seeking child.

    In my opinion.

    :D It does look like you are out of touch I'm afraid!!

    Probably his social media manager.

    So in summary, I am the only person that finds it creepy that one of this rappers entourage is going around taking pictures of underage teenagers riding each other and posting it on the internet to millions of people.



    Have I taken the wrong turn onto the dark web?

    You have lost the plot man.

    No one is riding.
    A girl is using the ATM.
    A girl is sitting down.
    A couple are kissing.
    All at a concert.

    I've seen worse at a Tesco.

    I hope the OP didn't see the exposes that The Sunday World did of the Wes discos in the 90s.

    Obviously ur of the same vintage as myself Richard, when kids of 14 yrs age would be at home enjoying
    family time instead of being indulged by parents paying for tickets to attend this type of crap - fools and their money etc - easy money for this Drake guy . As for the picture, nothing there you won't see around town any night !

    It's not the act that has put me out of joint, it's the fact that there is somebody taking pictures of it and sharing it to millions of people.

    The girl at the ATM does look very young, but it's pretty much impossible to tell what age any of the other three are, especially the two enjoying themselves. Never, ever got the appeal about him (and for someone who plays the hard man image a bit, he grew up in one of richest areas of Toronto and possibly Canada, pit "forest Hill toronto" into google images) but it's not like his concerts are explicitly underage events.

    So why are you helping them share it then?

    You cant know their ages (and they dont really look like their not old enough for a bit of a snog anyway) and they cant be identified from the pic so really what does it matter, people at concerts are often showing in pics


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,375 ✭✭✭✭kunst nugget


    My offenceometer seems to be on the blitz - I can't see what the problem is here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman

    To give the thread context.

    To save people from searching for it themselves.

    To let people make up their own minds.

    Just to be generally helpful instead of talking cryptically.

    Note the "Questionable" part of the title.

    Most of these modern day hard man rappers are playing up to a gimmick. They'd piss themselves and crawl up into the foetal position if ever confronted by a legit 'gangsta'.

    Pornography has me ruined.

    I'm always disappointed when an ATM machine isn't what I think it is.

    Is the questionable part: Do men really wear ripped trousers?

    It looks fairly staged, but if it isn't then yeah someone taking a photo of kids under 18 and posting it online without their consent is wrong, regardless of what is taking place in the picture.

    Now, if he had their consent (if under 18 their parents too) and took the photo that's completely different.

    I've brought my daughter to many gigs like this and have been asked by promoters if they can take her picture.
    This happens they want to be able to post scenes from the concert.

    Paedophiles have more in common with a crab, genetically, than with you or me. And THAT is scientific fact.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,495 ✭✭✭✭Billy86


    Not going to name them in the thread for obvious reasons, but two girls are having a bit of a natter that sounds like they know the girl ("is that her?") in the comments, and if you click on their accounts both look probably around 17.

    Still, as mentioned it's pretty much impossible to discern their ages from that photo as it typically is in any photo taken from a bit of a distance where you can't make out the people's faces or body types (e.g. young or adult) - example: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6BJeZ11g8kk/maxresdefault.jpg

    There's one in the corner disguised as an ATM!!!

    Why can't more of them just be fun, like Outkast or Chance? :(

    I can't believe you put up that picture of two ten year olds riding. Disgusting…

    It's not exactly slane girl is it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,375 ✭✭✭✭kunst nugget


    It's actually a picture of the ninja conference that was going on at the venue at the same time.
