I've been told not to be too judgmental - although it does look like The Sun and social media have already made up their minds on how they feel about this guy and his natural reactions. If his "natural reaction" was to verbally abuse a six year old girl and kick her bicycle, then he deserves all he gets. |

I suppose I must be grateful neither Simon nor TMS320 is in the same room as me when this happens, else they might resort to violence to win their argument in the way the lower orders often do. I am surprised you and Nugent don't die of dehydration. I have no doubt you would argue with someone offering you a glass of water. Perhaps if you undertake not to quote dishonestly Nugent would forgive you, although I can't guarantee it. |

Your original assertion that a six year old girl was capable of "harassing" a big ugly potty mouthed chav was worthy of the derision it attracted. I mean, just look at them! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EX_tawzX...pg&name=medium They look frightened by the gobby chav's threats. |

The child should have kept, by her parents, at least two metres away from those victims, at all relevant times. As far as I am aware, everybody in the whole group knows that. In fact, in my very first reply to you in this thread I said: "...I agree with you that current emergency regulations have been broken. I think the police should at least remind the father of his responsibility towards ensuring his daughter maintains social distancing rules. Ironically, the police can see where the father failed in that regard from the father's own video, something that he and his wife brought to the attention of the police themselves." So, what could be clearer than that? This vital fact seems to be totally ignored. It should not be. Eight posts from here up, in this thread, TMS320 says: "With the benefit of 20:20 hindsight vision, perhaps it would have been better had the father waited until the path was widened out a bit." to which I replied, "That is it, really, in a nutshell." As in, yes, it was the father's responsibility (not sure if the mother was actually there) to keep his daughter two metres away from other people - of course, it was, and we all know that. Not a word of that is about the behaviour required as a result of current problems. Not if that is the way you choose to see it. That HAS to be the only way to see such things at present. Every word of it apply in normal circumstances. Then I added: "...all those involved in the 'incident' will be that little bit wiser in future." But it looks as though you don't think the victim man has anything to learn from this incident. What can he "learn"? How about, if he had responded better everyone would have thought better of him for being an obvious good guy? It's not obligatory, I know, and can accept that too. Maybe he likes playing the bad guy. In which case, having delivered a volley of verbal abuse, giving the child's bike a good kick on departing was a clever move. People have different personalities. Most people, whatever their natural tendencies, will take exception to being run into by a bicycle. There will almost certainly have been a certain ount of shock coming into play. Don't be so judgmental of natural reactions. Be judgmental of deliberate acts. That a cyclist might run into him from behind on a footpath? That some people - regrettably, including the parents of some small children - will not behave responsibly? He very possibly already knew that. After all, everyone else does. Okay, I also wouldn't have thought either of those where something he had to learn (they're, as you say, both possibilities that people are aware of. Although I have, in fact, never been run into from behind on a footpath... just lucky, I guess.) There's little else that he and his companion could "learn" from the incident. Okay, that's your view but I still think he could have responded better, even under these abnormal circumstances. He didn't recoil from the child in horror when she brushed up against him, as if in fear of being exposed to a massive viral load of Corvid-19. He didn't stand back from her at all, on the contrary, he held his ground and remonstrated quite aggressively with the father, who then couldn't immediately retrieve his distressed child. As far as I'm concerned, the victim man would have gained far more sympathy for his situation if only he had acted a bit more responsibly himself. And all I have done is point that out. He could possibly have behaved better. That does not mean that he and his companion were not the (obvious) victims. It does not mean that the parent-with-the-camera-phone was in the right. I have never suggested otherwise. Good. But suggesting that post-collision reaction by the victim was somehow untoward does go some way in that erroneous direction. You seem to be taking all this as some kind of diminution of the main point but it isn't, the main point has already been conceded. This, luckily, was not a case of an injury accident. The breach of the social distancing rules *is* the major issue here. Again, I have never suggested otherwise. We are in agreement. Here is an update a day this incident: Quote: A COUPLE who knocked a six-year-old girl off her bike when they refused to move won't face a police probe over the "misunderstanding"... Detective Superintendent Kev Broadhead, from Nottinghamshire Police, told The Sun Online that no action will be taken. ... He said: "We have reviewed the footage and do not believe this was a criminal offence. The couple involved called us about the incident and we are satisfied that what took place was a misunderstanding between the two parties. They have both been updated as such. Unquote https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/116172...icycle-police/ So, it seems the 'victim couple' themselves contacted the police as they were worried about what could become of them after the video went viral. There is mention of the government's new guidance and social distancing. But interestingly, no mention, of any rules being broken by the father and his daughter. The mum says, "What an awful man. My daughter is traumatised. They (i.e. the 'victim couple') clearly have an issue with cyclists and were making a point of not moving." Strange how it wasn't the gobby chav who called the police after failing to supervise his 6 year old daughter and letting her ride dangerously in public even though she hadn't learnt to use the brakes. Not only the daughter but the chav approached the couple closer than 2 metres. The police usually fine people for this sort of anti-social distancing behaviour. |
