For the most part, I'd agree with you - but I defy you not to laugh at this........... The people taking part are laughing ! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It must be an awful, embarrassing affliction, but I do admire how those fellas seem to have 'embraced' it, and learned to live with it. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greyman 29,556 Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I think it's as funny as f**k and if it was me I'd expect people to laugh, there is a lot of fake anger , people like to be offended by such things without really looking into it, I think treating people differently is crueler and acting like it's not happening is a false reaction, if he was a decent bloke and a mate of mine I'd be the first to take him to a pub or anywere else he fancied going and if there was laughter and banter then all good, but if it was cruel and hurtful that's a different matter,(disabled or able bodied) public speech is part of getting over a bad stutter so your going to encounter every different reaction every time and banning the ones you don't like helps no one and just causes more discrimination, it's a very liberal tactic to stifle free speech, try not to get dragged in 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 There a difference between free speech and mockery and I very much doubt if that was you with this impediment and folk were laughing you would enjoy it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chaff 3,622 Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 My father in-law had really bad stutter had it all his life he never let it get in his way carried on regardless. Traveled the world in the 70s with a rucksack a few quid and a bottle of whiskey. He could communicate with anyone. Funny only time he didn't stutter was if he sang 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mockery as I said is cruel and unacceptable but laughter and banter are good and free, I had a brother that ended his life in a wheelchair prematurely, but I,d of rather had a laugh and joke with people I met unlike the kind caring b*****ds (that had known him when he was fine) that would cross the road to avoid having to ask him how he was, nobody on that video is mocking the lad and if you laugh about it in private no harm done, what would your role model A hitler have done with him ?? A little worse than laugh I,d wager 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
