Cowardly scum

[Uncle Spielberg]

Easy 10 has not got a nasty bone in his body. I can understand his reaction. Just a few people called him on it, which he has taken on the chin. Cheeky Monkey was bold to raise his comment and fair play to him for that.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Hope they apprehend and punish the evil Neanderthals who did it. Glad he made the game, sounds very brave.

Hmm, walking down the road and 6 randoms run out of a house and attack your son? Are you sure your son is telling the truth and hasn't upset someone recently?

Absolutely would be telling the truth, Easy10's son is most certainly not the type of lad to lie

Why is it so hard to believe? When I was younger myself and a couple of mates were walking along a main road in Hove when were jumped by 4 lads and 2 girls completely unprovoked, I was the only sober one and the others had been drinking far too much to be useful in any kind of fight, so we ran to the car and they proceeded to kick the **** out of my car to the point that it looked like it had been banger racing for a season... We were all lucky it wasn't us that had the beating.

Just in general, I don't think I've ever met a 17 yr old that doesn't lie to their folks.

I've never met one that deserves to take an unprovoked kicking either.

Edit: Not a dig

Being able to see the consequences of actions, developing skills of empathy and finding ways to feel competent/powerful/worthwhile without hurting others, are precisely the abilities that these people lack and which would otherwise regulate their behaviour. I'm not sure to what extent they can be learnt if they are not already instilled earlier on in people's lives.

I know what you mean. It's a bit old fashioned to say but lack of empathy begins at home during the formative years. Too many parents do not see the importance of giving their kids a loving caring upbringing.

 

[Easy 10]

They'd not been drinking, they weren't out for trouble, it was just 3 lads making their way back from the cashpoint and looking forward to their trip to Brum the next day. My lad is about 6 stone dripping wet, he's very fit as he plays a lot of football but is not a "bulky" lad, and not the type to throw his weight around. The vermin that did them over were older, stronger, and greater in numbers.

His mate gave accurate descriptions of several of them, and has said he would recognise them if he saw them again. Its in the hands of the police now, and I'll be badgering them for updates on this. Theres a small hope there may be some CCTV footage if the small factory/warehouse next to where it happened has a security camera.

And cheers again for the (mostly) positive posts folks, and [MENTION=6109]rusty redeyes[/MENTION] , thanks mate. Needed to get it off my chest, just looking forward to him getting home from Brum now, sharing a tinny with him in front of the football, and trying to get back to normality.

Bung him £50 and tell him to get round Honeys down opposite the harbour and get some 'stress relief'

 

[Weststander]

Easy10 ... I believe you.

Despite the stirrer who wasn't there, unprovoked attacks do happen, or with little provocation.


Put it this way, if police has been sitting in an unmarked car nearby and saw the whole thing, they would have had no interest in any boisterous noise or snow ball throwing by your kid and mates, but would have acted against the violent scum.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this lad wouldnt, he has no need to

Sounds like you've approached this in the most positive way any father could have done Easy, hope he has a safe journey home

Haha! really? Most 17 yr olds I know could do with a bit of a shoeing. (joke)

Yeah alright Doogie, it's only a throw away remark. There is some truth in it though ;-)

Throwaway remarks are a theme in this thread.

 

[Stat Brother]

I'm in no way casting any doubt on Easy and EasyII.

Should such an appalling event happen to Jnr Stat in 10 years time, I think he'll get pretty sick and tired of me saying 'well you must have done something?'.



For the record I'd be more surprised if Jnr Stat III, isn't getting a regular shoeing, but that won't be her fault cos nothing ever is

 

[Justice]

Terrible events, as a father myself I feel for the OP and hope the cowardly little f*** wits who did this get what they deserve.

 

[Phat Baz 68]

Just a comment in the heat of the moment. Who cares other than you?

The real and tangible event was the cowardly attack, and the resulting physical damage on the youngsters.

You are a real idiot !!!

 

[Sussex Nomad]

You are a real idiot !!!

He's not Baz, he just has a different view from you, one I agree with... no-one is an idiot.
