Spur Incident

ToxicBunny said:
Did they really?

Or did they just post random crap on twitter in relation to a person named Nico Viljoen who happens to live in the same area as this guy, and even those postings are not guaranteed to be accurate. Nico Viljoen will be a relatively common name if you ask me.

I say this on the basis that another person by the name of Nico Viljoen has been getting death threats, so clearly their "doxxing" hasn't actually been all that accurate.

The only man I know who was mistaken for Nico Viljoen and subjected to death threats, which I happen to think is going overboard, is some guy called Jacque something or other. I don't recall anything about another Nico. Where's this link you're reading from.

Since I've provided a link to a researched story where you can go and get the details independently of the news source, could you please post yours in relation to the strangling girlfriend etc claims.

I hear you. I really do. What you are however missing, is that this was NOT his first such incident (in my opinion as I do not know it for a fact).

Understandably, but that still need to be established, and bullying a bully is just moving the bullying on, not solving the problem. This guy could maybe do with help, maybe psychological help. Bullying him might actually make him worse. You might actually worsen his anger problem. Which I'm sure is the opposite of what everyone wants.

So I would think the best solution for now would just be to let this go and hope he learned his lesson.

I can do it in three easy steps.
1) Click on User CP
2) Under general settings, change amount of posts per page to 5.
3) click "save changes"

That puts the amount of pages to 322. Which means that mods now have the right to close this thread and let us discuss more things.

Well it's bad if this wrong Nico is being subjected to death threats. In fact, the right Nico should not be subjected to death threats. But I don't see anything in the article saying it was black twitter that posted his details online.

Have you ever known a bully to back down and not bully again, when left alone to learn his/her lesson?

I think I have a few print screens on my phone from twitter where people put his phone number, his house address as well his previous history with abuse on. But I don't that's a very good idea, that's very invasive.

So no official source of him strangling his ex girl friend then?

I'll ask again, where is the full video that shows him approaching the table? Why has that part been left out?

I don't really know the best response to this, but I don't think bullying him back is the answer. That's like spanking your child for fighting at school. Not the best solution to the problem.

Other than missing out on the very important message of not abusing or threatening violence against women and children, you won't miss much that we won't rehash again.

But that would be cheating and we would never be able to look ourselves in the mirror ever again knowing we cheated.

Leap? Seriously?

I am not the one making statements based solely on tweets from "Black Twitter" that have had absolutely zero corroboration anywhere else.

Dude, the link would have been shoved in everyone's face a million times over if a credible source existed. All I've seen throughout this thread is a bunch of hysterical people running on pure emotion. It's usually the same people screeching that everyone needs to view the "evidence" right in front of them.

Are you saying you did not see the child visibly wiping away tears and flinch when that buffoon made as if to slap her mother?

The wipe fyi comes before the fake PK, it could be tears, it could also be excessive Spur sauce on the chips, who knows. The flinch comes after the fake PK, but also after the mother jumps up very abruptly, the same mother that was right next to the flinching kid i.e. the flinch itself could as easily have been caused by the sudden movement from the mother as the fake PK from the man.

Nobody walks away from this incident in the right, least of all us idiots making news out of it.

Suppose this is where we differ. I believe in consequences for bad actions. I was spanked (or as Trevor Noah said, BEAT). I think I turned out OK.

People who commit crimes, get their freedom taken away. No consequences for a bully will mean more bullying in my opinion.
