If he'd said those things in a club about a woman sitting at the same table, other people at the club would've intervened. Other people are doing what they can in this case, which unfortunately isn't very much. The fact that his angry rant was televised instead of overheard doesn't make it more acceptable, it only restricts the avenues by which it can be handled. The real problem here is that BB did nothing about it to begin with - and a wink and a nudge lecture is not dealing with it. If they had, others wouldn't feel this need to try to intervene, however futile their attempts might be.

Perfectly said, in face the police would probably have been called, or the bouncers would have chucked him out. Damm, where's Chris when we need him?
