the latter part of this sentence is certainly true, because as a rule police forces tend not to hire (or keep on) people who break the law. the first part is backed with zero hard evidence, unless "shit talking on a forum infamous for shit talking" counts as evidence

also - given that you're basically downplaying (alleged) sexual assault in this instance - i'm guessing you're not impressed with #metoo either

or is this case in some way "different"?

I didn't realise that either. Let's see what the court says.

I'm not downplaying anything. I said justice should be served, that doesn't mean you cant feel bad for his mistakes and the repercussions it had on others. I thought it was just a drunken grope though and didn't realize it was for rape. That's a whole other level of fucked up.


As for the kid story I dunno why someone would bother to make that up. I can remember him joining irc chat a month or so before he disappeared and he was chatting it up about being nervous becoming a father, having to change his lifestyle and complaining about visiting his gf's parents.
I also remember him asking advice about pc's and getting back into gaming since he was going to be spending a lot more time at home with his new kid.

It stuck with me because it was nothing like his forum persona. Maybe the charges had come in by that time and he was scared shitless.

even if the wife-and-kid story was true - and i'm happy to accept it as 'truthy' - that just makes it worse

also, this place was not only a place to talk shit, but also to be called out on it - which is pretty much what this thread is about

I think people have a hard time feeling empathy because to most of us, LawL was nothing more than a virtual persona that was being a dick about a lot of things. In that sense, Lawl was actually a particularly negative persona. I mean, people here seemed to be genuinely shocked about Geoff potentially having ball cancer. Of course as soon as it turned out to be a false alarm no opportunity to make fun out him was left unused, but thats the shittalking aspect of q3w again.

yeah but even if geoffrey had actually had ball cancer, it wouldn't have been his fault, so piss-taking would have been inappropriate. charles is in this situation because of bad (and entirely avoidable) choices he himself made (assuming the allegations are true, that is)

the piss-taking gwamps got when he posted about his dad dying was borderline. on the one hand, it was worthy of empathy, but on the other hand he did it in such a way that it was obvious he was trying to provoke the very piss-taking he received. it was a kind of meta-piss-taking, if you will

So you're saying I was looking to be shit on when I posted about my father death?

FFS. :disgust:

I posted because I wanted to share what was going on in my life. Did I think people could be dick bags about it? Sure. But that's certainly not what I wanted.

And if BawL is a rapist, fuck him...

You can tell from the multiple topics I've made and how I scoured the public records of a foreign country in search of him since he left.

It's a pet peeve of mine, too, bro. At least when I use the word, I use it correctly. <3

I’m really surprised this isn’t publicized. The only news we’ve seen of it was back in 2016.

I feel like anywhere else, if a cop raped a woman, the news would be all over this. At the very least, the local media would have a few articles. But there’s nothing...

it's only a story once they're arrested, when the mere accusation is presented as if it were guilt. the media aren't interested enough to follow the case to find out if he's actually guilty

never underestimate the willingness of some journalists/editors to dogwhistle for quick adshekels

I actually mailed the news agency that wrote the article in this thread asking if they'd like to follow it up cos its gone to trial, hoping they'd get some info for us. That was like 2 days ago, never heard fuck all.

lol, wouldn’t that be some shit? If they only knew what kind of degrading things lawl has said about women on here. I’d love to see them quote some of lawl’s posts at the trial...

Jesus. See this is the shit that could do him real damage, it's where I draw the line. Laughing at his situation is one thing but pulling that up and making it known is low.

without actual physical evidence to back it up it's just hearsay

courts tend to be old-fashioned like that. they don't follow internet rules

Aye, if by some miracle they do find their way here they still gotta prove it was him, then it was him making the posts, try to get them admitted to an ongoing trial before making the case about context and relevance.
