Glasgow bin lorry crash: Fury over Twitter troll

[JimC]

What's going on, Scot? Did you get suspended again?

Every now and then, they like slumming in Ratz...

[pErvinalia]

He probably just need to call someone a cunt, and he'll head back soon...

[mistermack]

And only a nonconformist is going to get convicted.

fixed

Not really. It doesn't HAVE to be a nonconformist. But to get convicted, you have to be some kind of cunt.

And who gets to define what "cunt" means? You?

Not you. Definitely not you.

You are joking!

Seth has always been one.

Well, you don't want the loonies running the asylum do you ?

Quite disappointed with a few of the comments in here, especially from Tat. Having lived in Glasgow for over a decade maybe I'm a little more sensitive to this joke and this incident but I fail to see the funny side of people being killed in such a horrible way.

That being said, I hate censorship of any kind. None of us have any right to tell other people what they can and cannot say.

The situation surrounding death is always absurd and humour aimed at a situation like this should be allowed. It is the situation, but some folks push it.

[The Curious Squid]

I'm not arguing against it being allowed. In fact, I have such a bad outlook on humanity in general that it's also expected. People being shit is nothing new. My problem here aside from the obvious that real life tragedies like this aren't funny is with people I kind of know finding this amusing when they also know that both Heather and I are in this city, even if we're not on here much any more. Can't say I like being compared to garbage.

[piscator]

Is that your shtick TCS - victimhood and the guilt trip? Bravo!


No one here caused that wreck. I don't feel sorry for you because you live in the same town.

[The Curious Squid]

Cool, I didn't ask you to. I don't know you and considering this is our first interaction (as far as I'm aware) I also don't intend to get to know you. I also at no point accused anyone here of causing the accident...because I'm not stupid.

[The Curious Squid]

Or claimed victimhood for that matter.

No. You're an asshole.
But I already pointed that out.

Really? Well, you've certainly claimed "Douchebag" as your own.

[rachelbean]

This is why we can't have nice things (people).

[piscator]

I'm sure he'll never post here again, as punishment to you.

[The Curious Squid]

So attacks on other members are allowed here now? Who is this guy anyway?

It is under review...
