It's just that when I see the word 'boy' used with this type of story: some (and I say some, not all) will focus on it being akin to some 'little boy' - rather than the adult that he actually is. Last edited by Pyramid*; 14-12-2011 at 03:18 PM. |

Now I know this is a serious debate: would it be utter and wholly inappropriate to post this - seeing as we now all seem to be going around in circles??.....

The lad that Filmed it was just on Radio 5
He said after he was removed they all started talking one bloke was a Lawyer he gave his card to the big man. Also this went on for 10mins even before he started his mobile to film it. |

In my view he is still a boy. He is by no means a young adult if he is still behaving like that.

I like the final part here: that it went of for 10mins prior to it being filmed. I'd love to hear the full story. |

I agree with you in that he is acting like a boy - but when it suits him, equally, he's happy to act like an adult when he wants to out drinking beers.

No problem with the addition of a poll, never thought of adding one myself
I sincerely hope anyone that advocates the actions of this 'big man' never has (or already has) children, as teaching them that using violent methods as ways to achieve what you want is right is only going to lead to more violence and more crime. It is never right (unless in self defence) and there are no excuses for it, by agreeing with it you are advocating and promoting actions of violence as something that should be used even more commonly than I assume it already is. Christ...some people just don't understand the repercussions of their quite frankly idiotic views, and it's a real shame as it'll only lead to worse things. And passengers of a train service should not be expected to be manhandled by fellow passengers who are in no position whatsoever to do so, whichever way you cut it he used physical force to remove him and therefore it is a form of assault. |

Does he even remember what he was doing? Is he an adult or not? Did he have one bag or was he laden down with several prior to going in for his exam? Did he lie to the conductor about having a correct ticket? Did he lie to his father about not being given his bag? Did he buy 2 single tickets or did he lie. So many questions....not enough answers....... |

And not only that, but we also have the 'big man' and his unfit parents (if they're still alive that is). Works both ways. |

You cant always blame the parents for kids going bad...so many factors come into it at times :/
