Its time for the BBC to sack Clarkson?

You obviously haven't been in many Easyrider threads. Generally he starts a topic and then gives his own opinion, which of course in his eyes is the only valid one.

Any attempt to question this gets shouted down. Any attempt to discuss it gets shouted down. Any attempt to present a decent and structured argument gets shouted down.

It was the same when he posted in GC. Whatever Easyrider owned was THE BEST and that was that, any attempt to suggest otherwise was generally just shouted down.

See a pattern? It's almost quite amusing really. :D

So you're defending JC?

So weak:rolleyes:
 
When I heard this on the news I lolled. Inciting violence, what a load of crap.

They should be shot and replaced with people who understand how the economy works.

Anyone who takes what he is saying as gospel is a moron.

Obviously said tongue in cheek. Haters gona hate.

Long live Clarkson, the day he stops presenting is the day anti-'political correctness' dies

He's a Pal of David Cameron...Both tools together.

Its not what he said it was the platform on which he chose to say it.

He went on the show to plug his DVD

And quite frankly talking about execution in front of the family is not an extension on the saying " he should be shot"

He went on the show becuase he was invited.

This just show how silly your argument is.

Such comments are fine on bbc2 at 8pm, yet you want him sacked for such comments. How does that make sense.

JC comments and humour is well known, blame the show for having him on when the strikes were happening. Those are the only ones blame, of you need to blame. Or watch the show and see how total ricdiculuse and over reacted this whole thing is.

You have missed the point totally.

no i haven't. it's the only way we can absolutely be sure you'll never get offended again. ok so we sack clarkson but unless you stop watching live tv, it's very possible that someone else will offend you at some point in the future.

Scenario 1... Male Nurse come home after striking yesterday,Can barely feed his family...sits down to watch a Family show with his 2 x 8 yr old Girls and is subjected to Clarkson saying that he should be executed in front of his two girls for striking and to get a proper job

The Girls don't understand the supposed wit and are disturbed by the comments.

There is a time and a place for such things and 7pm family viewing is not one of them...I fail how you deem this suitable Broadcasting.
 
Then the parent explains and why the. Need for emotional crud. Is it becuase you don't have an argument. That's usually the case when you have to include emotional crud to get attention.
Can hardly afford to feed her family. You make me laugh.

It's ok for such comments at 8pm, so what exactly do you want him sacked for?
Making such comments on a show that isn't his and he was invited on to. In full knowledge of what he is like.

Sensible response would
A) accept it as a joke as it clearly was, do you need the link or transcripts again.
B) if needed review their vetting process.

It's part of English and parents should be supervising and educating..
But keep peddling unsupported bs, just makes you look a fall, along with everyone else who took offence most of them haven't even watched the show.

Its a Male Nurse..Read my posts properly. Why should the parent have to explain...Its should have not been allowed in the first place.

He's a professional Broadcaster and he abused his slot on the show

Young people don't understand loads. Shall we ban the news, as they don't understand the erupting volcano is in another country and get scared.

Why peddle emotion bull crud, male or female.

No he acted like he always does on a slot, that he was invited to.

Why do you remove all responsibility from the shows producers. They have a duty to ensure the content is suitable.

Why do you want someone sacked from an unrelated job, a job you yourself have said such comments are fine. Even though it is equally prime time broadcast which young kids watch. Can these kids suddenly understand, becuase they are topgear viewers?
