Punching kids on public transport

That I agree, and don't be a grammar Nazi, I noticed it and edited it even before you replied.

Would you not agree people should respect public spaces more for the next users sake ?

Ninja posters!

People should respect their surroundings full stop, not just seats on a train. However; that is nothing to do with assaulting someone whom does not, which is totally unacceptable.

'So, punched this child at the park today because he dropped his lollypop stick. ******* youth today, we never littered in my day'.
 
I remember some kids being real ****s on the train a year or two ago. People left the coach and numerous people told them to behave and that it was not a playground.

One guy even said they would get a smack to which one of the gobby ****s happily answered back "You can't though as you will get in trouble."

As a potential witness I would have "seen nothing" if it had come to that, though thankfully it did not.

Not condoning violence against kids, unless it is self-defence/reasonable force. Depends on the age obviously.

That was not what happened though, he approached them, twice the second time resulting in an assault on three children (who's ages added together are still less than half his age).

Hopefully he is arrested and charged with assault, mystifying that people did not intervene.

Maybe because the article is blown out of proportion and it wasn't as bad as the article makes it sound?

You also said it is public transport, not personal transport. So why would you care that people have their feet up? If in your own words it is not personal, but public?

If you actually think it's ok to put your feet up on seats others will have to use after you then maybe someone should have given you a clip round the ears as a kid too.
 
YAY

It is journalism? No?

I am unaware I have said it is ok, I have said it is accepted / ignored on many types of public transport I have used the world over. I have said that it is unacceptable to assault anyone for doing so too.

I do not put my feet up on public transport, largely because I do not use it as frequently, but also because I was raised properly; to respect my surroundings and that did not include being given 'a clip round the ear'.
 
I thought trains were covered by cameras? Would have thought if he did hit the child it would be a viral video by now.

If it wasn't affecting him I don't see why he'd get involved.
