    Red it again, only with an Irish guy and you would want him tarred and feathered and on the sexual offenders register before monday.

    It might be acceptable in the Sudan/Somalia/Ethopia or some other part of Africa but it is not acceptable here.
    Send him somewhere where it is acceptable behaviour. If you are old enough to get liquor and beat one out, news flash!!! You arent a kid anymore

    True, irrespective of background one should respect the laws of the country you are in

    No because thats not masturbation do you not see the difference? Or do you need it explained to you?

    "vigorously ransacking his dignity"

    I really need to rewatch it all again.

    Well just give then 50 Lines. "I will not shove my digits down the front of my trousers and embarrassing myself and other teachers in front of the pupils. Frther more it is also a criminal offence and morally wrong and carries the chance of being branded a registered sex offender and a term of 6 months suspended sentence."

    Relevant section under which the lad was charged -





    Source: Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Act 2017

    We criticized Dubai when they put a couple in court for having sex on the beach. We said, only a backwards, non-secular state would consider such strict punishment because it is so afraid of sexual acts. We really should be a bit better than that.

    Does it still say 'buggery' in that statute? :eek:

    Stupid maybe but not disgusting and he shouldn't be shamed for it. We all do it, just not in public

    Yes, but he DID IT IN PUBLIC. Would you like everyone to walk around **** all day? Would that be alright? Why stop there, lets **** on the streets in front of nuns too.

    I know we're here posting about a man masturbating in public, but I'd still appreciate if we could not descend into this level of hysteria.

    This style of argument never works and always makes the poster look ridiculous.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    Does a tree falling in an empty forest make any sound?




    Also, I thought the nuns had all f*cked off at this point.

    If it's caught by the police it does, yes.

    Is this a rhetorical question in support of the argument that the potential punishment for being caught by the Gardaí masturbating in public is too severe, or are you arguing that lads walking round with their hands down their jocks should also be charged with a criminal offence?

    They can be charged with a public order offence, which doesn't require them to have exposed themselves to be charged:

    Public Order Offences

    Okay, so we're no better than Sudan.

    That's depressing for 2018.

    Big difference between being pelted with fruit in the stocks for a weekend and losing either a few digits off your hand or your whole hand. You have to remember these lads are nt coming from a civilised society. That whole area of East africa is a joke that the whole American and British armies couldn't put discipline on.

    Nobody has said any such thing thus far.

    It's illegal, a crime, against the law. Man was arrested for breaking the law.

    What's the problem with this?

    No, it was a radio presenter from Cork who took codeine, which made him pull the mickey off himself on a flight.

    Loss of memory too. :D

    Condescending, nice. Most people put a full stop at the end of a sentence when they reach the age of 5.

    I was going to say something else but I decided to keep it simple.

    It's a disproportionate response to what appears to be a very minor crime.

    White collar crime is also against the law, but is often overlooked.

    I’d love to see the crossover of people that say “they know the law of the land” when women are arrested for wearing a bikini in a public place in Dubai or unmarried couples staying in the same hotel room, and those who think this should have been just a caution.

    Thats a matter for AGS and the judiciary. In this case the Gardai did their job.
