The Evils Of Facebook

So did I but I got a reply saying it doesn't violate their policy on hate speech.


Steve.

Strange that, isn't it Steve, because I saw quite a lot of hatred in those comments and incitement to violence:(
 
I'm still completely baffled how you have worked out he was 'obviously shifty' is it the shirt? the cap? because he's overweight? or is it the 'eyewitness report' from a guy who is clearly a lying scumbag (from actual evidence, there's no way the police told him any of that detail), he's a deluded bullying narrow minded ****.

Whilst you're scared we're all being tarred with the same brush, it'd help if you made sure you're not giving the paranoid idiots a hand holding the tar bucket.

I'm confused as to how you worked out he was 'lying scumbag'. You have evidence? Is that what you are saying?

Well he clearly says the police told him details about the 'pervert' that are in clear breach of the law. So we either believe that the copper broke the law, or the violent small minded arse is also a liar. Whilst I haven't got the greatest respect for our boys in blue, I'm inclined to believe the latter.

So no evidence then. Cops have been known to reveal more than they should before. If we are talking about witch hunts and facts etc, none of us here have any regarding this case.

Balance of probability, from his language (call it a witch hunt if you like) he's not exactly covering himself in glory, let's see:

"anyhow after sifting through the photos the police found a number of photos of kids in swimsuits and or getting changed - the outcome, scumbag got a talking to but there's nothing stopping the **** bag taking photos in a public place!!!! "

Now whilst the police might have told the guy what they'd found, taking photo's of kids getting changed would have got him more than a talking to:cuckoo: He might be entitled to take pictures in a public place, but that specific behaviour is enough for an arrest (people have been arrested for less and jailed for similar).

" the girl had soaking knicks due to paddling, mum WITHIN THREE FEET OF THIS MONSTER and on the prom, pulled her pants down in full public view,"


which the monster presumably photographed, yet the police (having examined the pictures) accepted his defence of:

"Two cops spoke with him and looked at the pics, his statement was these are beach pictures with beach views!"


If that story is true - I will show my arse in the co-op window. It simply doesn't add up.

More likely scenario; thug see's 'obvious P****' calls police who 'have a word' and decide the guy's done nothing wrong, when the thug presses the cops they make some noises about how they'll be looking into it further, and when he's pressed them for more they've explained he's actually broken no laws (so the P**** is free to do what he wants:cuckoo:).

If they'd found pictures of kids with no pants on they'd definitely have arrested him. And presumably they've seen the contents of his camera, so he's volunteered that evidence. Again, based on the hundreds of stories of photographer / police encounters on the web, they'd have taken him in if he'd refused. Particularly given he's been accused of an actual crime by a bystander.

So; Yes, I believe he's a lying scumbag ;).

Lying, because he's made stuff up about what the police said
Scumbag, because his only answer to dealing with people who are 'different' to him is violence.

It's not impossible as coppers can be idiots. In the past I've had coppers read out my name and address in a loud voice in the street in front of "the accused" and coppers once gave my name and address to a thug I'd had a violent confrontation with, their reason being that they wanted him to avoid my address :help: :bang: Guess who turned up at my address?

They may not set out to break the law but coppers are human and are just as likely to be idiots from time to time as anyone else.
 
This is what is wrong with this country as a whole, 95% retarded.

Knuckle draggers one and all.

Hardly a day goes by when I do not fail to spot them.

Tomorrow will be the same. I am on an interview panel to employ 5 people for a customer helpline. If any talk about their Facebook hobby for more than 5 seconds then I will be voting NO.

I think rather than being the ultimate fault of Fakebook....it's just a case of someone being a general b*****d.

Who doesn't love the word 'b*****d'....:lol:

FB = *****. I saw part of a video of a group of men kicking the crap out of a women. I reported it and received a response 'it doesn't violate their policy on violence' of words to that effect.

Ain't been on since, and feel, quite soon that interest will wane and, like MySpace, it will become a has been site.

Cheers.

:thumbs:
I would also add, that this is how certain people behave to a simple difference of opinion, argument or maybe a misconstrued look or word.
The UK seems to be full of people wanting to "kick off" at the slightest excuse.
 
I was shown this post the other day and thought the guy was just an idiot trying to act big about phoning the police on someone and the comments might be more balanced. Then I saw they were just as bad as his post. Still though I tried to convince myself since I do a lot of street photography and have been to Seaburn doing it not too long ago that it was a small group of his idiot friends commenting. Then you see the shares, couldn't believe it had over 2300 shares. Most of which had the same kinda crap about this guy automatically being a p*** and trying to find out who he is to beat him up. It does actually put me off and I feel sorry for the guy with the camera.
Now it seems if you photograph a kid your a p*** and a woman your a pervert. Its really sad people are so small minded.
 
Its this kind of retarded behaviour, that has changed the way I go about taking pictures. Have sold my 70-200 as it made me feel uncomfortable in public, and 80% of the time my wife is with me when shooting.

Sad I know, but rather this, than me doing time for smacking the first retard that even hints I'm a perv.
 
It's such a shame that the first thought of so many seeing a photographer is the assumption they are up to no good. It seems the simple act of taking a photograph is viewed as suspicious by many.

Only the ill educated retards do in my most humble opinion.

They walk amongst us. Many many many of them do. The others drag their knuckles.

I am glad my Manfrotto Monopod is a slighty slimmed down scaffolding pole and I still remember my Kendo training. Not sure how many Zombie Retards I could defend myself against. Perhaps we need a 70-200mm f/2.8 IS with optional short narrel 12 Bore accessory ... with additional shells that spawl on impact.

BTW the simple act of taking a photo lies in thr P mode. Real Photographers go "creative zone" whilst Radical Hard-Core photographers go Manual ;-)
