Thread Killed-Joe Slo

[pastapouch]

Pity that last thread was ended because of Joe and his 3 friends' date=' but just to end off we had no problem with an apposing view point, rather we had a problem with Joe not just voicing his view but rather having to " run to teacher to tell on us" So because he never liked something it must not be there( god' s of the hub), very progressive interlectual thinking you 3 stooges![/quote']

pity that people start mudslinging because they don't agree... if you don't agree with someone, tell him/her so, don't start insults and name calling. Easy.

Will we have to cross the white line to get to the bear (on the) right?

Mr G, let it go dude. We've all moved on to what Andrew and Robbie are tweeting about..

Stooge #1

[Mr. G]

A short course in spelling would be in order' date=' Mr.G

I liked the post,I'm not ashamed to admit, but the attacks on Joe Low were unbecoming. A more tolerant approach would help[/quote']

 

I'm pleased you liked the post Johann and maybe teach Joe some tolerance too.

 

The way I see it is that Joe never just made a point, he disagreed with ours and wanted it removed, a- la Mugabe.Besides 3 of his friends , no one else stood up for him while he was been attacked. The support only came once he had some friends on his side already, but before that you were silent- balls of steel there men!

 

You are quite correct that most of us are not journalists, like some of your chess club and debating team members, but just ordinary cyclists.So please find it in your intellectual hearts and minds to look past our gramour and spelling mistakes.

 

Finally, the reason that I made the post originally was because every day we see pictures of the good man in the street being shot, stabbed or robbed and here I had a bit of great news for the good guys for a change.

I give you 10/10 for uithouvermoe......but I am afraid you fall down in the switched on stakes.You are mistaken in your assumption that you are the majority and right.Suggest you read HR's post more carefully and consider its content.Further,Admin clearly outlined the reasons for freezing the thread.Read it again and respect the decisions taken.

I hate the crime in SA just as much as everyone else, and those scums deserve what they got. That said, I found the post to be very tasteless, out of line, and not at all the right place for such graphic, violent pictures. There are some young people on this site, and people who dont want to see such images. The thread's topic was misleading and I actually had those pictures flash up onto my screen without any warning etc. Really bad taste guys, and I applaud Joe for having the balls to stand up and say his bit. Seriously, if you guys feel so strongly about this sort of thing then go hang out at one of the many many "I'm an expat and hate South Africa cos its fncked" websites.

Thanks, but at the time we were the majority and if you look back at the posts I was never one of those who swore at Joe. I do actually respect admins choices and welcomed Joe's different point of view. But Joe asking for it to be removed just because he didn't like it was not on. Admin stopped it because people were abusing Joe and not because of content.

 

Lastly why are people not concerned about the 500 pages of half naked woman, if it's all about cycling and kids are on the hub?

 

PS- Great looking woman, no objections from me.

So we are now comparing pictures of half naked woman and pictures of dead guys  

Someone has been watching too much Dexter

[Weight Weenie]

is this still going on ? Don't you okes have work to do ? Get a room man !

Read the whole post!

 

But I'll make it simpler.

 

It's been said that the 2 major objection to the post were that:

1. Kids were on the Hub.

2. It was all about cycling.

 

That's why I asked about the naked woman, get it yet?

or it might be that same gangster / chreche attitude of "if they can do it then so can I"

 

Justifying on 'wrong' with another unrelated 'wrong' just do not fly in the real world!

Firstly, there is nothing violent about the 'girls' thread. Plus, the thread is labeled as being graphic. Your thread posed as a normal crime type thread, and never once hinted at showing some of the most graphic, tasteless, violent images. The fact that so many people relished the act was besides the point. It's up to the admins to decide if the content suits their website. What you didn't do is give us the choice. Had your thread's title been "Hijackers Killed - NSFW - Graphic Images" I'd certainly not have looked. The only reason I looked at the thread was because a good friend of mine (local musician) was killed at his gate.
