Finally the West Ham cat kicker goes to court!!

Very fitting.
Rather foolish behaviour by a top rated sportsman.

Yes scum and lowlife sum him and his brother up very well IMO, and GG's description of MissA as kind, empathetic and caring is spot on.

There are none as blind as those who refuse to see…

No you are right, people cannot see that name calling and is wrong. I believe it is low life behaviour
The footballer will be punished, rightly so but I refuse to engage with some of the names he has been called.

racihagran in my opinion you have been extremely rude to MissAdventure

If you find descriptive words offensive no doubt you avoid TV, films, news, read newspapers or books or listen to the radio?

This has really riled me MissA you do not deserve this ???

Don't worry about it, honestly.
It's like banging your head on a brick wall.
Nice when it stops.

You still can't see it! ?

I will give you the benefit of the doubt rafichagran, and assume you know nothing of MissA's circumstances, not that that is any excuse for what you have said to her. She is a much respected poster who has not only my full support, but the full support of many here. She is a good person. If you don't like the way in which some of us express our disgust at what was done to these animals, this is not the thread for you. I rarely resort to offensive language, but cruelty to animals is one of the exceptions.

Miss A's circumstances have nothing to do with me. You do not know my circumstances, but if you disagree with me it is your privilege.
I am calling her out on the names she called Zouma yes he has done wrong, yes he should be punished, but playground nasty name calling is wrong.

So why are you doing it to me?!

MissAdventure

So why are you doing it to me?!

Purely because I disagree with your name calling to Zouma, I consider the name calling wrong.

Obviously not that wrong, since you resort to it yourself.
Bad example to your grandchildren, I'd say, particularly when you stated that it was in another thread that you saw the name calling.

Just for your information, I am perfectly at liberty to agree with what was said in a totally different thread.
I do not need your permission.

Rafichagran, I’m amazed you keep repeating your insulting abd totally inaccurate description of Miss Adventure’s character. She is not ‘low life’, very far from that. I don’t understand how you feel it’s fine for you to use offensive language to someone you disagree with, whilst criticising her for using language you find offensive. Are you winding us up deliberately?

I wrote that name calling is low life behaviour, it hurts people and is nasty. If you want to engage in it it's up to you and I stand by what I said. I quoted the other Zouma thread which was taat, so I thought it would be deleted. You quickly responded by calling him the same names which is wrong.
What are you on about needing my permission, you dont need mine and I dont need yours.

No I called out the name calling, it is not a good example to set. Also I believe that people who name call in that fashion , be it on racism, or sexism displays low life behaviour,

A low-life is a term for a person who is considered morally unacceptable by their community.

... although you were careful with your wording (displays low-life behaviour), you've accused MissAdventure of being that morally unacceptable person.

It's enough to say you don't agree with name-calling. You didn't need to add the insult - to someone you don't know.

If anyone is 'displaying low-life behaviour', it is Zouma, not MissAdventure.

I think rafichagran is aiming to wind people up best to ignore

No, but I will not change my mind. People can be hateful and nasty to others but when called out on that behaviour they dont like it, and yes that behaviour is low.

Keep digging, rafichagran. You're on your own in that nasty hole you decided to dig. What a hypocrite you are. And totally on your own here. If you think that I, as a retired solicitor, partner in a big City firm, am also a lowlife, carry on. I don't care what you think but I do care for the welfare of animals who can't speak for themselves. I will call perpetrators of cruelty to them whatsoever I wish within the boundaries of the law of defamation - which have not been breached here other than by you, so take care.

I'm so glad I have your example to aspire to.
So much better.
Show your grandchildren, why don't you?
They'll be very proud of how much more lofty your ideals are.

Not winding up anyone, just dont like the names Zouma is getting called. Why are you so riled. I'm not, I just disagree with you.

Did you do all this in the original thread?

I've never seen you quite so animated.

Oh how you remind us many times you are a retired solicitor, news for you I dont care
At least I dont want people dead and tortured. Hypocrite for what, telling someone that name calling is low life and unacceptable. I am not digging I have never changed my mind.
Just leave Zouma alone and let the courts deal with it.
Name call me if you like, truly not bothered.

What has riled me rafichagran is your character assassination of a very dear lady.

Your posts are verging on bullying, your alleged high ground is lower than the Mariana Trench.
