Spur Incident

[Former member 61586]

No.

Yes

Just release the footage and everybody will shut up problem solved.

Both black and white people are threatening to boycott Spur now.

It is not in Spur’s best interest to release the video material. There are two other parties involved, each which may be willing to pursue this legally against each other. Get the parties to agree with each other in the releasing the video material, then it may go public. This is evidence.

No matter what the CCTV footage shows, those defending this thing will continue to look for excuses.

What exactly is that evidence of?

Not using it as evidence. It's just odd. Normally a wife would at least be able to calm her husband down.This one barely tries.

She knew what a pk felt like?

Most probably yes. But enough of that, I'm now no better than the low life's defending him.

How can you even begin to compare the reactions of toddlers to that of a grown woman?

I was being facetious. My point was that you can't conclude anything from the reactions of people in stressful situations.

That poor kid which was posted by some egocentric hypocrite, here is the story,

shame. Integrity fail...

A 17yr old hitting a 5yr old. I hope he was appropriately punished. There's no excuse for that.

Apologies.

I fully support the white person's version of events. :erm:

 

[etienne_marais]

A likely story, your bias against Spur and whataboutism is very clear.

Likewise your bias against the testimonies of people who were there is clear. I in fact did not rigidly choose a side, referred to the balance issue with two extremes and mentioned the prior incidents.

As for whataboutism you are right:

Finally some one who agrees with the spur ceo.

Finally some one who agrees with the spur ceo.

Spur has their own camera system. Any assault of his kid can be corroborated by the Spur.

She's probably afraid he will klap or strangle her too.

That is why I wouldn’t mind for justice to take its course. Unfortunately, I think that this will die out in public debate. Challenging things like this legally is rough on a person’s well-being and bank balance.

As for whataboutism you are right:

How does CCTV evidence compare with eyewitness account? Which is more likely to be accurate? Which is less likely to be clouded by bias?

Mod Note: Please refrain from posting photos of the children as you do not have their parents' permission to do so.

[/ATTACH]

That testimony is in direct contradiction to Spur's statement. People who have access to CCTV and waiters that were also there. Which sounds more reliable to you?

Clearly somebody is lying.

Remember that in the future when the tables are turned and statements made by people you choose to believe because it suits your framework of reference, and possibly, agenda.

That says a lot.

Because that suits his agenda.

 

[Knyro]

Read before you post.

He commented on this. He was being facetious
