agree disgraceful

[TWR]

Well do-gooders, what's your views?

[ummmm]

TWR - what do you mean?

[anotheoldgit]

A disgusting savage and cowardly attack on an old person.

I thought Asians were brought up to respect the elderly or is it just their own?

[jackthehat]

My view, TWR, is that you ought to wind your neck in.....
You constant name-calling is now really getting on my pip!

The yobs who carried out this attack need to feel the full weight of any law that can be thrown at them.....it is an absolutely needless thing to have done.

[TWR]

It was the day in Question A.O.G

[anotheoldgit]

TWR's question is quite legitimate taking into account some answers in relation to such acts that we have in the past come to expect from some quarters.

[ummmm]

Like what type of answers? Has anyone condoned such attacks?

Are you suggesting radical Muslims?

[Svejk]

He, allegedly, had his beret snatched off his head. Let's keep things in perspective. I'm surprised it made the papers.

[dannyk13]

Svejk. What about the loss of his medals?

[TWR]

It was the Remembrance day AOG, That's their protest.

[dave50]

Keighley, ah yes, another one of our multicultural towns which are working so well.

[TWR]

Blooming heck Dave, be careful.

[Baldric]

It will be interesting to hear Mikey's opinion given that he is a supporter of multiculturalism!

[Svejk]

Danny, it says they snatched his beret and ran away laughing. It seems a big leap to stealing his medals. Time will tell, hopefully.

[-Talbot-]

mikey will not make a visit.


A yob is a yob no matter what the colour but mikey only has a problem with white yobs/peadophiles etc etc....it's very puzzling why.

//He also realised his medals had disappeared during the incident and a search of the area has failed to locate either the beret or the medals//

Hi tee dubbl-ya

as a do-gooder let me step into the limelight

The old boy has been offered another beret - not the same
and I daresay someone will step forward and offer to secure replacemtn medals.

In terms of tracking them down - forget it - this occurred in the past and he has been in hospital for tmt - probably coronary artery dilatation. The only hope would be CCTV and that is unlikely in a park


as for kissing the hooligans and telling them they are naughty boys and have to go to bed early - nope I dont think anyone is suggesting that ( yet)
