* The comments on here are disgusting in their lack of humanity. I’m sorry to say that SW has attracted a lot of hateful and cold hearted people recently. I shake my head in dismay and disgust at those who think it’s okay to throw around an unconscious person like a rag doll. What a lack of decency and basic humanity our modern world has created. Shame on you!*

Makes no sense. @G00GLE
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Carissimi Well the teenager played a stupid game (refusing to wear a mask) and by doing so won a stupid prize (being thrown out).
If he doesn't like being treated like shit he shouldn't be acting like shit :D
Miram · 31-35, F
@G00GLE It is not about masks.

And they shouldn't hurt him like that. He could have died from that blow alone.

killing a kid over refusing to leave a pub? Come on.
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Miram It really ain't about masks. He played a stupid game, and won a stupid prize.
He did something he shouldn't have done, apparently enough to piss people off, and got retribution for it.
@Miram he literally was thrown out once and run back in before serving his own self. And he doesnt have a mask on top of it. I deal with people as such in my workplace all the time. I'm not working to babysit anyones child . If he didnt want to put himself in danger he shouldnt have broke the regulations of the place,twice

@PepsiColaP He is a teen. He was sitting in a pub, he won't be wearing a mask

That kind of treatment can kill people. It doesn't fit the deed of sneaking in back to a pub.

Since when is killing people a reasonable punishment for sneaking in to bars?

Come on guys. Be realistic.
@Miram he wasn't sitting in a pub though. He broke in in an establishment he was not welcome. I am guessing because he was not wearing a mask in the first place. I'm not saying I enjoy watching this type of violence. But actions have consequences . And I am sorry some dont seem to learn that from home . But like I said,we are not here to babysit anyones child

Read

[quote]Hotel management said the teenager was kicked out of the venue for being too rowdy but climbed a fence to get back in to his mates.

When security noticed they shepherded him out - but the teen broke free, ran straight back to the bar and poured himself a schooner.

That’s when the situation escalated.[/quote]
@Miram like I said I read the entire article. I think you need to reread what I am saying
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Miram Death is never a reasonable punishment in my eyes. But what happened to that kid isn't really a punishment in the classical sense. He annoyed that dude long enough for him to snap.

I am not taking sides here, and I doubt PepsiColaP is either. I don't wanna see people die, but if they play stupid games, well, don't be surprised if they get a stupid fucking prize.
Miram · 31-35, F
@PepsiColaP @G00GLE

What you both tried to argue is that he got what he deserved. You were taking sides.

Show me where exactly you have expressed any concern or condemned how he was treated? Or even been objective enough to do your own research and find out it is not about masks?

You don't care.

Not sure why I even bothered responding to either of you.
@Miram ok now this feels rather personal. Didnt take time to do my own research? I didnt argue anything to begin with ,I replied to a post in the manner that it was presented to me and when you posted the article I read that and tried to have a conversation with you. I am speaking from the perspective of someone who has to often deal with that behaviour but I'm not trained nor am I capable of enforcing any physical force on people who repeatedly choose to break the rules of our operations while I have to care for say 10 other people at once. It is ok to have different opinions and I dont think I once was disrespectful towards you nor made it about what you believe in
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Miram [quote]You don't care.[/quote]

Absolutely true. I don't care whether or not this is about masks or not. Could be about stealing shit, being a nuisance or anything that he should not have done in that place. My point is that he did something that he should not have done (apparently repeatedly) and then got served a punishment for it. As I said, I don't think death or torture or violence in general is a fair punishment for crimes big and small (in most cases) but this isn't about what he has done IN PARTICULAR or what has happened to him SPECIFICALLY.

He played a stupid game and by doing so won a stupid prize. That's all there is to it.
Miram · 31-35, F
@PepsiColaP @G00GLE This conversation was personal since the beginning and I don't respect justifying violence against what I consider a kid.

I took few minutes to think about it and I'd like you both to know that I regret pushing my opinion on you and I apologize for that ❤️ It's not right for any of us.

Have a good evening.
@Miram I'd like to also say I respect your opinion in many things and I do agree with you in the sense that this level of violence was unnecessary. Although I do see how he was pushed to use physical force eventually,I do not believe he needed to continue once the kid was unconscious and I am glad a police investigation is undergoing. In the least it teaches everyone involved something.
I also enjoy having conversations with you even when we disagree and I think you are one of the few people who can do so while being respectful towards others. It is hard to sometimes have a civil discussion in here and I am sorry for being pushy myself at times .
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Miram Right so I personally think violence is a little lame being on both sides more often that I'd like to admit. But from the beginning this hasn't been about the fact that someone has been harmed or that someone harmed someone else. At least not for me. Kid played a stupid game, got a stupid prize. Was it justified? I don't know!

I'm known to be a stubborn asshole apparently but I really don't wanna push my own stupid opinions on anyone but myself. I will defend my stance with everything I got but that doesn't mean I disrespect or dislike the people I'm talking to OR that I necessarily think the other person is wrong. I just like discussion and I sincerely hope I haven't made you feel like I was disrespecting you.
Miram · 31-35, F
@PepsiColaP 🤨 don't make start another argument about how this clashing is my fault and not yours. I am sure I can win this one, this time.

I get pretty pushy about things that have to do with something that taps into my past. True improvement isn't done by pointing fingers and rather looking inwards. I sometimes read too much into things and end up hurting others. All of which I need to work on.

Also
I have that problem 👆

You are both sweet people and I hate to make either of you feel bad. 🤗
@Miram I think you are a very mature person to be able to recognise those things and openly admit to them. I am quite agressive and defensive myself and I dont always understand why nor do I want to make a pitty party excuse for it either but I do know I have things to work on myself.
Also this dude was my spirit animal and he literally saved all those dumb happy birds lol 😂😏
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@PepsiColaP @Miram I like how this argument turned wholesome 🥺
Also cute birb, what's that from?

@Miram @PepsiColaP now kith
Miram · 31-35, F
@PepsiColaP I kind of like the babies more because they are adorable. They don't have any dialogue in the series available on youtube, it is just super cute to watch. [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL7WYCpu6pw&ab_channel=AngryBirds]
Miram · 31-35, F
@G00GLE Angry birds. How do you not know that? xD
@Miram omg why didnt I know about this? brb now need to find an excuse to babysit some babies so I can bingewatch this 😩
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Miram I'm an old person! I don't know all the cool shit the kids are into these days! :(
G00GLE · 22-25, M
@Miram Oh my god that's so stupid and adorable 😍
They remind me of the baby Rito's in Breath of the Wild <3 <3
