London bus attack: gay couple beaten

zofinger · 06-07-2019, 03:36 PM

What I find most disturbing is the narrative being overlooked here.....a group of 4 males beating two women?!?!

WTF.

Am I being old fashioned being dismayed this 'angle' appears to be overlooked? I get it's anti-LBGT but it's also disgusting 4 powerful men attack women. Aren't we taught never hit a woman?

I hope they do time for this.

Little boys trying to be men.

Absolutely abhorrent on many levels

Your not being old fashioned, I was brought up the same way.

These are not men, 4 x shit houses more like...jail the scum.

Four males 15-18 years old have been arrested.

Hope their parents are proud.

I saw this earlier and did a dad thing by shaking my head in despair.

My guess is that if any one of these 4 wastes of oxygen were on their own on the bus they wouldn't have done anything but because there's 4 of them......

I despise these people, scum will always breed scum and unfortunately they are the plague of the 21st century.

Lincoln61 · 06-07-2019, 10:11 PM

Its pretty shocking for many reasons. I read this after reading an article that a man put his baby in a tumble dryer.

I dont know what is happening, but it seems like portions of the human race are devolving!

Soul_Glo · 06-08-2019, 01:43 AM

I hope the scum get their just desserts.

Scum breeding scum is right, and the inevitable result is devolution

Had to google him and still not sure what his opinion might be on this

but will stand by mine. We've got a very poor balance in society, have done for some time, and the results of that are increasingly obvious.

Incidents like this do make me wonder whether the Singapore-type approach to offenders like this has its merits; a touch draconian perhaps but it certainly works as a deterrent.

I also wonder, as we commemorate 75 years of D-Day, what those people who paid the ultimate sacrifice all those years ago would make of our society if they could come back and see it today. Chances are these offenders will get away with not much than a slap on the wrist so did all those good service people die so we can live in a country where standards of behaviour have slipped like this? A lot of them must be spinning in their graves.....

mikeoz · 06-08-2019, 06:43 AM

I saw this yesterday and thought it was appalling.
Hopeful be charged with Aggravated GBH.

I'm no expert on London buses but i'll be amazed if there's not signifcant CCTV evidence to bang them to rights.

I'd have them cleaning war cemetery’s as part of their punishment so they can read the epitaphs of all those who died so they could be free.

Big assumption there - they can read

Bigger assumption they would understand those fine words.

Genuinely believe the disrespectful little shits wouldn’t understand or appreciate the sacrifices for their freedom.

Yeah i believe they have the cctv hence the arrests already.
