For Bear fans only - Reverse the situation -
If a drunken Heavy who had already had repeated warnings had deliberately tried to provoke Bear, went and sat down near to him when he knew he was angry, then went into the garden and threw a glass with all his might that smashed a window that a camera man could have been behind, would any Bear supporters be making all sort of excuses for Heavy? Would you be criticising Bear for getting angry at Heavy provoking him? Would any of you care that Heavy had been kept in the DR, would you be saying how scandalous it is? Be honest.

Excuse me, I am always honest and I have repeatedly outlined here why I think falsely imprisoning anyone is wrong.
What I haven't seen from anyone is an honest answer as to would they just sit back and accept being locked in a small room, not able to see or talk to anyone face to face,and also not being told the exact amount of time they would be kept in there, or would they be mad at that if they had not physically threatened anyone as in this case.
Furthermore, I for one have
'repeatedly' said I would be outraged no matter what housemate was in that position,whether I liked them or not, so I have actually already answered your question.
I generally agree with Ammi, I most certainly do not on this one and I doubt if it was a housemate that was liked you and some others would be not be agreeing that it was wrong to in effect lock someone up against their will.
Never mind we learn things everyday as to how people think and just for the record too, I am not a Bear fan, I do not want him to win but I would, I repeat, be making the same argument I am for him for any other housemate falsely imprisoned against their will, and that is what it was,for any amount of time.
No matter what I thought of the housemate
You may think that right, I for sure do not, no way, never.
Just because it has happened before for differing circumstances also still does not make it right.
However I have not yet come across any housemate being forced to be in the locked diary room,against their will and not being told how long it will be before they will be allowed out.
Even usually it is asked if they want another housemate with them.
He was before the throwing object actually less volatile than heavy D was,yet you conveniently bypass heavy D's part in this getting more aggravated than it possibly needed to be.
Heavy D however comes out angelic in this, yet he was the one perving on a younger female and what she was doing with Bear, watching their every move from a distance determined to also get an argument with Bear as to that..
That's pretty sick to me actually..
