I still haven't got over JBR suddenly swearing. He seems like such a nice boy, too.

Should be there. I'll just have to test whether wifi works at the start, then probably switch to phone.

In the interval I was moaning to my son how crap I was doing, and mentioned this round, he would have scored 7 or 8 points, and knew exactly who that was

Just researching my intros round, and this song has a 4 minute intro and it's all amazing! I fear my round may last half an hour next week!

okay, I now have 5 rounds just from listening to one song. I think Warhead will appreciate most of them more than everyone else

I nearly didn't include it because it might have been unfair to people who don't do much on twitter, but it was covered on the BBC news website so in it went :attitude:

I've just watched the full video. It will be interesting to see if there is any further action taken ( on both sides).

I'd imagine they'd both get done? The racist hate crimes on one side and assault on the other. If they catch the guy who lamped him... it's not a particularly clear video.

There's a couple of videos from before the punch too, where the guy is clearly off his face and just spewing all manner of shit. I'm surprised it took so long before he got walloped tbh.

In the "before" video, I thought the guy's outbursts and mannerisms looked quite similar to the tics seen in Tourette's syndrome (my only knowledge of which really comes from the "John's Not Mad" and "I Swear I Can't Help It" documentaries the BBC did)

If that is the case, doesn't excuse it of course.

This is the internet, no better place to armchair diagnose someone based on zero facts whatsoever.

IMO, it provides an "excuse" for the outbursts, but for him to repeatedly be throwing abuse in their direction would (again, based on what I've seen in the documentaries!) indicate that that is actually how he feels about black people/foreigners.

I would have expected someone shouting racial slurs because of a tic when they don't actually mean it to show some kind of remorse or shame afterwards.

But you know, as Chonks says, I don't want to armchair diagnose anybody - it was just what it reminded me of.

Hard to show shame if you're out cold.

But yeah, from what (little) I know about Tourette's there's time between tics for them to apologise / explain.

Even if he has autism or some other learning/developmental/behavioural delay it doesn’t make you racist.

There are multiple videos where he's shouting abuse - he definitely had plenty of time to show shame before he got punched.

Even if there wasn't time to actually say anything between the tics, it's not just his actual words that demonstrate he's doing it all on purpose. He stands up as visibly as possible right in the doorway, continually looks around to involve and engage as many people as possible in what he's saying and even actively squares up to the guys as they go to leave the train. If you're not a racist piece of shit and all this terrible stuff was coming unbidden out of your mouth you'd squash down in a corner or keep your eyes to the floor or any other way of trying to downplay it as much as is possible. The way he kind of barks and repeats stuff is an odd speech pattern for sure, but literally everything else about his actions screams intent. Bearing in mind that his tirade was filmed for seven minutes before he got punched, and fuck knows how long it went on for before the video started.

ETA: sorry, the video was seven minutes long but only five of it was him shouting shit.

I read *somewhere that his friend had emailed someone who posted it on YouTube asking them to take it down as he was drunk.

*Maybe YouTube comments, can't quite recall.
