I made my assumptions at the time based upon what was known about the attack. Those assumptions have been vindicated by the outcome of the trial. Would you accept that a far right homophobe committed the attack on Jones?
If you’re implying that everyone should refrain from pointing fingers until incidents have gone to trial and a decision has been reached, perhaps you should inform Royals, Roy and others on the right in this place.

This should be fun watching certain posters on here trying to frantically backtrack
Expecting a lot of deflection
Expect some posters start spouting deflective shit about the BBC and the climate change ‘agenda’. The actual silence will be defending. Oh perhaps others will come on saying how much they would like to kick his head in. Oh how everyone would laugh.

if he has been subject to violence, the perps must be locked up

wanker as he is, he must be believed unless it's proven otherwise
i would love to see him get smashed, legally, in a boxing ring, but his right to free speech must not be interfered with

Was any of the footage shown to the court during this trial or was it all down the the undoubtedly good word skills of Jones to describe the attack in his own words?
As many of us said at the time , and still do; let's have a look for ourselves. What was the scale of this attack when not described by Jones.
I'll stand corrected the second I see it was more than a minute of handbags at two paces embellished to fuck to sound like a 'military assault'.

Would you accept that a far right homophobe committed the attack on Jones? Yes , i accept that . Yes , i hope they get the appropriate punishment . As for your assumptions being based on anything , i think you're talking out of your arse . You made your assumptions before any facts were known and couldn't wait to jump on your anti-right bandwaggon

I ain't implying anything . But tell me , what do you think of people who , as soon as there's breaking news about any attrocity in the free world , shout 'Fucking Muslims' at it again ?
As for Roy , Royals et all , i'm sure they're big enough and ugly enough to answer for themselves .

I'd not heard of him until recently when he was mentioned in relation to the various examples of 'woke-ness' - in this case, the difference between snowflake movie critics and audiences on rotton tomatoes.
Must admit he is genuinely funny.
juicy smolly yay......he's french
His recent special - which that clip is from - and Bill Burr's both on Netflix, of all surprising places, seemed to have been a bit of a turning point on this shit. At least in comedy anyway. I like Chappelle a lot but Burr is light years funnier than him, IMO, honestly sometimes piss yourself funny. You can do far worse than catch up on both.
On comedy in the US there seems to be a loose divide with east coast, and NY based comedians being more not giving a fuck while LA ones are usually more woke.
Roy, a comedian called Nick DiPaolo has a special on YouTube... hopefully still. Watch it you and Paolo will fucking love it. Believe me. Link...
Seeing as it's clearly easy to move sections of threads, it would be nice to maybe have some of these posts moving a new 'Non-PC Comedians' thread?
The reason I suggest it is that I came across this one the other day, - I found it refreshing:
Keep fighting the good fight for socialism, Owen.
