Wilber Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 I'm willing to say that the behaviour isn't something I want, but I'm not willing to say that I can stop it. Wow! Impressive. Why do you even bother to speak on it? Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC
Smallc Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 Wow! Impressive. Why do you even bother to speak on it? Because I can? Quote
Wilber Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 BTW, it just cost some goon in Calgary a $400 fine. Some people are willing to try and stop it. Evidently they don't have your support. Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC

I'm saying it's a losing battle. It's the same reason I think that prostitution and marijuana should be legal. Quote

Hal 9000 Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 You, GostHacked and smallc have no standards of behaviour that you are willing to defend, makes you very much the problem. If that's what you think, then you haven't read the post you quoted - or any of my posts for that matter.

WWWTT Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 I am curious how the reaction would differ if the phrase was FHRITA. Would online lynch mob howl for blood with the same vigor? Somehow I doubt it. Internet vigilantes are worse than the crime of rudeness. You have an example of FHRITA? No example so you make up one, make up a response and then straight to the conclusion! You can pretty much accept anything when you make up imaginary scenarios to justify your beliefs. WWWTT Quote Maple Leaf Web is now worth $720.00! Down over $1,500 in less than one year! Total fail of the moderation on this site! That reminds me, never ask Greg to be a business partner! NEVER!
Wilber Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Did I really say that? Hmmm.No, my mistake, so what do you propose? Edited May 17, 2015 by Wilber Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC
Hal 9000 Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 This video holds a lot of answers.

Wilber Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 This video holds a lot of answers. I think it is a good start. At least reporters and these twits will know reporters aren't completely defencless. The cops in Calgary getting that guys license number and fining him $400 for stunting doesn't hurt either.

Smallc Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 It's not that I defend the behaviour or would ever do it, it's just that I understand it. I've spent most of my life working with people who wouldn't hesitate to shout something they saw on youtube. I'm not so quick to call it what i know it isn't. Quote

Don't the people on the receiving end have any say in what it means to them? Are you like GostHacked, willing to put up with any behaviour when you go out in public, as long as it stops short of torching cars and smashing windows?

Wilber Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 So, do you understand how and why they do it now? And, who they feel they are doing it to? Not really and I don't care why they do it. Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC
Hal 9000 Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 Not really and I don't care why they do it. You can't solve a problem or change a behaviour if you don't understand what it is or why it's happening. I thought you were just being difficult, but you really don't get it, do you?

I thought you were just being difficult, but you really don't get it, do you? I'm not interested in making excuses. This isn't some kind of addiction, medical condition or the act of people who have been socially or economically deprived.. It is simply a matter of people who have never been taught or required to respect others or use manners and it's damn well time they were.

jacee Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 I can respect you find it offensive, I can't agree its sexist if I don't understand howYou don't understand ... ?! :/Now that's just sad. . Quote
jacee Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 I'm willing to say that the behaviour isn't something I want, but I'm not willing to say that I can stop it. Everybody can help stop it ... by not accepting it as 'normal'. It isn't. It might be 'normal' for boys to engage in such talk privately ... 'locker room talk'. It definitely isn't normal nor acceptable to sexually harass and victimize women publicly with such asinine behaviour. Real men don't. . Quote
