    I can't believe so many posts on this thread commending a guy for assaulting a baby. You are as bad as him condoning child abuse.

    If it was a cat the guy would be in protective custody by now. Because it was a child making noise he's a hero. Odd isnt it ?

    Not odd at all, the cat wasn't making noise

    But, but you said you'd rather see the aul**** segregated, so that's just what I was doing to keep you and the young'uns happy :(. Anyway a bit of fresh air would toughen the childer up.

    If it had to be, yes, send the people that have the problem out. But all people have the same right to just go somewhere for a meal and relax.

    And I really find people who think only of themselves and their wants to be completely deplorable; youre clearly one of them types. The universe does not revolve around you lads, parents of children have as much right to go to the pub ON A SUNDAY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTERNOON (i.e. carvery time) as you do.

    Hey I invented this hypothetical, and he was making one hell of a racket. But people would see that as "Thats what cats do!" While blaming the child for whatever it was his mother done.

    Disregarding what the old man did.

    Surely people can't defend parents who knowingly bring their pissing, s*itting, screaming babies and toddlers to an establishment primarily for adults to have pints or watch the sunday game in peace on their day off ?

    Give me strength - they are some right gobsh*tes and idiots on here.

    * The mother left the table to order food, the sister-in-law was still there.
    * The child wasn't on its own.
    * The child was grizzling - this is not roaring crying. Grizzling means to cry quietly.
    * There is NOTHING WRONG with a child being in a pub during the day for food. It is considered HEALTHY for children to socialize and such things. And the person who said that McDonalds was the only place to bring kids :eek::confused: - this same person would probably be giving out if the child was obese:rolleyes:

    * That man who threw the beer over the baby is a tosser. Assaulting a baby. What a brave, brave man he is. Complaining to the staff would have been the appropriate thing to do - not fcuking attack a baby.
    Actually a sensible person would have seen that as soon as the mother had finished ordering the food/drinks and come back to the table - the baby would have stopped.

    It is a wonder some of the people here aren't writing letters of support to the b*tch in the states who got 99 years for abusing the 2 year old.

    A little 15 month old baby being a bit upset is hardly "bad behaviour".

    I dont know how the rest of the world copes at all. Its common practice to bring children to resturants.

    We don't know how bad the child was. He is conveyed to have been very bad and "grizzling" so he mustn't have been to pleasant to be around.

    I said a page or two back that I wouldn't mind if the child was a bit upset and was settled down, that's understandable.
    Screaming and shouting like mad is not, and I shouldn't have to sit around and endure that just because it's a 15 month old child. You remove your child from the situation if you can't settle them down, that's only fair on the other people who are there to enjoy themselves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,327 ✭✭✭Madam_X


    What a prick! And the people defending and praising him for assaulting a baby (no matter how noisy; he is a ****ing baby) - what a bunch of weirdos!

    Grizzling is that groany whinging low-level sound I think. Annoying yes, maybe the baby shouldn't have been there (although physical assault of his mother? More weirdo-ness) but taking out frustration on the baby himself? Freak.

    Whoever says a baby should never ever be allowed out in public (as if that's feasible) does not engage brain.

    Most families bring babies and children to pubs at weekends etc for a sunday lunch and not for the purpose of drinking. Also looking up information on the pub, it's a pub specifically for a family crowd. Note the part that says 'children welcome'.

    Sounds like something that can be done from your house. ;)

    They wouldnt have carveries if pubs did not want business from families. You have a right to relax on the weekend, parents also do. If there is a screaming child naturally the parents should try to keep it quiet for the sake of others. But this child was 'grizzling'. Thats like once step up from mumbling. That makes it even more inexcusable, what the crotchety old arse did; its not as if the child was having a ****-fit. Then he proceeded to kick the mother in the arse. I MEAN HELLOOO!!!!. You were a child too once you know. And Im pretty bloody sure you screamed louder than most. Kids cant communicate at that age in any other way than crying and making sounds. Maybe a word or two at that age. Grow up and show some understanding.

    The issue is with the mother then not the innocent child. There are children suffering awful abuse and sometimes death because scumbags lose the plot at the sound of a baby crying too much. People laughing at an assault on a child because they are disrupting their quiet pint is nasty.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,754 ✭✭✭oldyouth


    Anyone who did that to a baby.....disgraceful
    Parents who let their sprogs do what they like in a public place......disgraceful

    Like I always say, there is no such thing as a bad dog, just a bad dog owner

    Children shouldn't be allowed out in public. End of.


    Hmmm. Me thinks you be immature. Oh wait, I see you are a mod for call of duty forum :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 930 ✭✭✭poeticseraphim


    He should have been given a sentence. Babies are off limits...to dangerous.

    If i was the mother..i would have cut him...badly.(well informed it to the police and prosecuted him to the fullest extent of the law, then sue ).but then my baby would not be in a pub..

    Assualting the mother .....gross..this man is a C**T....he abuses children....disgusting..people condoning it disgust me too....

    Total B**T*RD

    He should be publically shamed.

    LOOOOLLL!! Oh snap. Nice catch, cant believe I let myself get worked up over a 14 year olds opinion.

    Tell me moderator of care packages and killstreaks, at what age do you think children should be permitted to leave their house? And at what prestige level? :P

    Ireland is not a borderline third world country - you need to actually research what third world country means. You're Irish also, therefore it's illogical to look down your nose at Irish people. You are one yourself. You don't share the obnoxious views here, you can see many other Irish people don't either, so the blanket insulting is silly.

    That said, I will concede that Ireland, broadly speaking, can be fairly child-unfriendly.

    I'm referring to deafening cries disrupting the entire pub and families who stay there all day, well after lunchtime. It's pretty lousy and ignorant of the rest of the punters. If you're baby is particularly bad for outbursts, well then get a babysitter for a couple hours and have your carvery in peace.

    The world doesn't revolve around screaming children. Especially not in a pub.

    Poor child, assaulted with beer. All it has to look forward to is being assaulted with water pistols, with baths, with showers. Definitely should stay indoors.

    Which posts exactly are you referring to? That doesn't sound like any ones I read but maybe I missed them.

    Hang on now. Of course the old man was wrong in what he did, but going by what some you are saying, you'd swear the child was on the verge of drowning.
    Let's not go off on a tangent here about beating children to death. Assault is a strong word here I think.

    I'll admit, I found it kinda hilarious just picturing it though. :D

    So glad I dont live in Ireland anymore. What a horrible, miserable lot you are. What that piece of dog excrement did to that innocent child is a terrible thing to do to a defenseless toddler. Deserves a week in the clink if you ask me. And people that have kids have as much right to enjoy the pub on a Sunday afternoon for a carvery as much as the bunch of miserable arses who nobody would ever have children with do :P


    The baby/kid hate here on boards is rife...be it the pub,cinema,shops ect...they expect children to be gagged into quietness:rolleyes:


    That aul **** should be charged with abuse!
