Up to them. Why other people hate it? Not their business.

Uh... Farangs? You mean some westerners? As compared to other Asian nations where it's still punished by the death penalty. What about SE Asian nations like Brunei, Indonesia, Myanmar, and Malaysia? Farangs? It isn't a farangs thing only. But a fault in our human condition to attack that which is different.  You should here the abuse the openly gay kids take at my Thai public school.

 

But your right about one thing in most of these places it's the religion.

Not sure what the overall outcome of this event will be, but I would bet serious money that this was not the first time these perpetrators were involved in this type of activity. 

   The 1984 incident involving Bernhard Goetz who shot 4 young men in a subway comes to mind here.  It was the culmination of unchecked and rampant aggressive behavior towards innocent law abiding citizens similar to the two ladies mentioned here. Goetz had been permanently injured in a previous altercation and decided to arm himself (illegally).  He was found not guilty of all charges except the illegal concealment of a weapon and served 8 months. 

 

The Irony of ironies is that you have to commit a crime to prevent a crime from happening.

The race of the attackers hasn't been revealed. Over 50% of London is not farang.

 

Farang means white. White countries are actually more friendly to LGBT than Thailand, they have legal gay marriage, Thailand doesn't. They have entire gay pride months, whereas Bangkok went 11 years without allowing a one day gay pride parade.

That's not a farang, both his parents are Polynesian race, which actually shares genetic origins with Southeast Asia...

"One in five LGBT people (21 per cent) have experienced a hate crime or incident due to their sexual orientation and/or gender identity in the last 12 months"

 

So 79% didn't.

 

I stand by my observation & experience.

Surely it's either one or the other.

 

Were they tourists? (as one of them  didn't speak English)

Quite a few don’t you know maybe in the thousands if the truth be known.

How about since five years? Everyone? And some people two times or not?

 

21% every year. About 30 million LGBT farang. Only 6 million per year. You say no problem. 

Ok. Up to you.

An "incident" could be a male  transsexual not being allowed into a womans toilet

No, it means 21% of the LGBT, not total UK population.

 

 

I see the homophoops are out in droves while pretending not to be.

Trans people are living their life in their affirmed gender, I am sure there are many who have passed you unnoticed, some look “passable” others do not. Same as some older blokes have bald heads and beer guts and others do not.

 

I hope the women recover,another display of toxic masculinity and probably fuelled by alcohol,damn poor examples of males.

Reading some of the posts here, makes me shake my head in disbelief.

 

To the poster who spoke of NORMAL behaviour and exhibitonist. For gay men and lesbians the behaviour is NORMal for them. You displayed the usual heteronormative biase in your post.

Incidently  the term  normal should be a cycle on a washing machine or dishwasher, not a human trait, it depends on socialisation etc as to community behaviours. Just my personal opinion

I agree with everything you say, it was disgusting.

 

Concerned about your use of Toxic masculinity though; do you think there's a toxic patriarchy too?

Speaking of heteronormative bias, aren't you the person who proudly boats of his work for the same-sex marriage campaign. How heteronormative is marriage for same-sex attracted people?!

That was about equal rights, and if marriage is part of that, then so be it. Personally I never have wanted to marry, there are distinctions, I will support others rights to be equal

Ah, you obviously don't understand Englishness. Now that PC has reduced them to <deleted>, one is expected to take an assault quietly, then report it to the police so they can ignore it.

If one were to resist or fight back, then YOU might be in trouble.

Even worse is to actually injure one of your attackers, as then YOU will be charged with assault, and punished more severely than the attackers were for their assault on you.

 

I once had to stand back and do nothing as a man was assaulted in front of me in London, as the attacker was a boy, and I knew that should I so much as bruise him I'd be convicted of a crime, and lose my job. I did stay in case the victim needed assistance after, and to give the cops a statement, but fortunately he was not actually injured.

Seems to me that there is no longer "justice" in England, and the legal system is barking.

Reasonable force?? If I caught someone breaking into my house, I would attack him with everything I had and would make sure he was not able to use any weapon he may have, a knife, gun.

If he is unconscious or dead, he would not be able to use them, reasonable force?? aye right.

Isn't more likely to be perceived as 'a stern talking to' nowadays?

 

After the Tony Martin case in Norfolk twenty years ago, as much as I admire him, I'm sure people would be reticent to do much more in their own defence.

They don't like people who defend themselves and who use disproportionate force.
