G8 marchers = fucking wankers (discuss)

[layabout]

i remember being on a reclaim the streets once where one driver put her foot down and went straight into the protesters. fucking cunt. if the fluffier wing hadn't got in the way she would have been dragged out of her car and given a slap. how fucking dare you use your car as a weapon against peaceful protesters.

she was lucky she was surrounded by hippies who don't tend to go for street justive to calm down the spiky types who do. she still had to fucing turn round, and got her car kicked in for her trouble. personally if i was a copper i'd have done her for attempted murder. but then if there were any coppers there they'd probably have let get away with it.

i'd ahve thought better of you than that, but there you go.

Where do you live?

Can I get 200 people around your house and just "Blockade" in the name of peaceful protest or as per usual, do you just make it all up as you go along?

 

[Termite Man]

Couldn't see the word "all" mentioned in there at all.

This is going to be fun. Because I remember a little while back, I was hounded for being "silly" for assuming that someone saying "gays support the miners" means "all" gays support the miners.

Can you all make your fucking minds up?!

The thread title pretty much indicates that all the marcers are causing trouble

G8 marchers = fucking wankers

seems there is no distinction there between the ones causing trouble and the ones who aren't !

 

[DaveCinzano]

Can't be arsed with this thread now. I have to go and wash my Lexus.

you do that

 

[scumbalina]

Jesus wept.

Are you seriously picking them up on a spelling mistake?!

 

[bouncer_the_dog]

If someone tried to deliberately block my car from driving down a road I'd run them over.

I agree, especially if it was a policeman.

 

[madzone]

the only social change that has ever happened ever has been pushed forward by protest. you wouldn't even be allowed to vote if it wasn't for violent protest.

I hadn't thought about it like that. I've been wondering what purpose the violence has and if it is in fact counterproductive but when you put it like that...........

 

[longdog]

Who the fuck are 'protestors' to decide that a mother kid can't get her kid to school on time?

So you'd run someone over just to get your precious little darling to school on time?

Don't be such a fucking half wit.

You don't half come out with some shit some times, but then being married to a copper ain't that fucking bright is it?

No it doesn't.

You just want to argue about stupid things rather than condemn those involved on violence who do make the rest look bad.

If someone tried to deliberately block my car from driving down a road I'd run them over.

Then you'd end up facing manslaughter charges and rightly so.

 

[TeeJay]

I understand peaceful protest, and think it should be done, but what message do the people up there think they are putting across??

grrr........

"grrr........"

Yeah I think that's the message they want to put across.

 

[layabout]

Then you'd end up facing manslaughter charges.

Anyone who blockades cars should be nicked for false imprisonment.

 

[Termite Man]

No it doesn't.

It doesn't ?

How do you interpret that then ?

If the thread title had been violent G8 marchers = fucking twats I'd have agreed but the title and sorters comments don't make that distinction !

 

[layabout]

That's assuming she killed anyone.

 

[longdog]

Anyone who blockades cars should be nicked for false imprisonment.

Does that apply to the OB as well?

I agree they are wankers.

What's your point?

 

[Termite Man]

Fucking hell ! Do you really believe that ! A blockaded car doesn't mean your "imprisoned" . You need to get some perspective ! Maybe people who park on the pavements and block them should be arrested as well then !

 

[layabout]

Does that apply to the OB as well?

No. They are there to uphold the law and they normally have a legitimate reason for stopping cars.

 

[Termite Man]

I agree they are wankers.

What's your point?

my point is sorter is calling all the G8 marchers fucking wankers and making no distinction between the violent and non-violent protesters , something which you earlier claimed he wasn't doing

 

[editor]

Anyone who blockades cars should be nicked for false imprisonment.

So anything creating a traffic jam should also be charged similarly too? Broken down cars, injured pedestrians etc?

And how can you be "imprisoned" when there are usually between 2 and 5 doors available on every vehicle?

 

[madzone]

Surely local residents have known that the summit was going on? If I knew there were going to be loads of protestors potentially blocking roads I'd give my kids a day off school and tell work I couldn't come in. There's other alternatives to running someone over. I'd also do my best to get my car off road so that it couldn't get vandalised.

 

[editor]

No. They are there to uphold the law and they normally have a legitimate reason for stopping cars.

So you only approve of State approved demos and are against any "non-legitimate" protest then?

 

[layabout]

Fucking hell ! Do you really believe that ! A blockaded car doesn't mean your "imprisoned" . You need to get some perspective ! Maybe people who park on the pavements and block them should be arrested as well then !

I do believe that cars that are badly parked are towed away. Besides, pedistrians can always turn back. I've seen many environmentalists dance around cars and block the cars EVERY way.

I'll listen to sound argument. I'll recycle my rubbish. If I have a car, I'll try and be as green as possible. Fucking piss me off and I'll do my level best to buy a 4x4.

sa basbjgg - sorry I've just choked on my oatie biscuit

Aahhh....but maybe the title was only calling those who are MARCHING wankers....maybe he thinks the ones who are sauntering, jogging, strolling or skipping are ok. I think you might have to admit defeat on this.

cunning ! Next protest I go to I'm going to moonwalk so the police don't suspect me

 

[Giles]

Are you seriously concerned about the owners of Burger King?

Don't worry, I reckon they'll cope.

Most Burger Kings are actually individually-owned franchise restaurants. So by smashing them up, you aren't really hitting Burger King, you are smashing up a fairly small individually-run business.

Either way, vandalising some fast-food outlets isn't going to bring international capitalism to its knees any time soon, is it?

Giles..

 

[scumbalina]

Fucking piss me off and I'll do my level best to buy a 4x4.

So you'd base your the level of environmental responsibility you take on the actions of a few protesters? You really do think these things through, don't you?

 

[layabout]

So you only approve of State approved demos and are against any "non-legitimate" protest then?

Morally, I don't mind people protesting in ANY "un-official" circumstances, as long as it doesn't ruin someone elses day.

If you want to pursade motorists to be more green, amuse, entertain, make em laugh, win their friendship and influence them. Give em a leaflet, give em a T-shirt. But for goodness sakes, hold them up and ruin their day and they won't forgive or forget for a long time.

If I couldn't run my car through protestors. I would sure as hell sit there with the handbrake on, causing as much pollution as possible.

Childish? Yep.

Petty? Yep.

Immature? Yep.

We ALL get like that when we are NEEDLESSLY put out by other people DELIBERATLY.

 

[scumbalina]

Giles..

Did I say it was?

i'd ahve thought better of you than that, but there you go.

If someone is impeding my right to drive down a public street, I must say I would be tempted to just drive through them. It's their choice to get out of the way or not, isn't it?
