He beat up his wife and thumped her in the stomach with a barbell and people are sorry for him because some women are sniping at and teasing him (and he has done his fair share of that himself.)
He excludes himself from the group (men included) and they are supposed to care that they don't have the pleasure of his miserable company.

With a nasty soul like he had/has he's not exactly a poor sensitive type, is he?

Who freaking cares.

If you feel that the bullying he is experiencing now is some sort of payback for all the jokes he's made in the past, then that's your prerogative. I don't. What I do think is appropriate is what Blaize did when he met Jim Davidson.. You can read about it here:

As far as the allegations of historic crimes - people are innocent until they are proven guilty, and there are two sides to every story. A woman I know thought she had a violent husband, but actually she was more violent than he was. It was always her bullying, carping, relentless, critical behaviour which started the arguments and after she had goaded him into losing his rag, she'd act like a victim. She did it to me once: thumping me around the head in an unprovoked attack, then when I put an arm up to shield myself she accused me of hitting her. I am in no way saying that Jim Davidson is not a wife beater. I am saying that we do not know the full story, and he should be charged and given the right to a fair trial before anyone judges him.
