Where does the trampling happen?

Five seconds into the video, or are you just playing pointless semantics? It's been described as trampling in most of the news coverage so I'm sticking with that description.

It's not as though it makes it acceptable if we describe it with a different word does it?
 
Don't stand in front of a marching solder. Bet the kid wont do that again. No trampling there, either, not unless we've redefined the word now.

You made at least two untrue statements and then you accused someone else of "pointless semantics" for pointing out that your most obviously untrue statement is untrue.

You obviously have no point at all. If you had a point, you wouldn't have to lie about what happened. It doesn't matter if some media outlets also lied in order to get views. That's par for the course for media. It doesn't excuse you doing it.

There was no trampling. The video you showed proves that.

You have claimed that at least 2 soldiers repeatedly stamped on a child and left the child seriously injured or dead.

That is a lie stacked on top of a lie. One soldier deliberately avoided treading on a child (the opposite of trampling) and the child wasn't injured.

Absolute nonsense. :rolleyes:

Whatever you want to call it "trampled", "bulldozed", "ploughed", "destroyed", the guard deliberately and forcefully knocked over a vulnerable member of the public which could have resulted in a fatal head injury.

This isn't a battlefield where everyone is to be treated as a potential threat, it's a tourist attraction no justification can be made for it and that is why you are so forcefully trying to attack me by ascribing nefarious motives to me and trying to minimise what happened, you can't come up with a justification.

There only appears to be one guard involved. Is your title just poor grammar or a deliberate attempt to exaggerate what happened?

"Queen's guard" as in a guard belonging to the queen, not multiple guards. Honestly picking at grammar is a fairly pitiful way of trying to distract from the issue. Though yes arguably there are multiple guards acting in concert so it's not a misrepresentation either way you look at it.

Yes, it is nonsense. So why did you write it?

Also, why did you include a video showing that your claims were nonsense? I'm genuinely curious about that. Did you assume nobody would watch the video? Is this thread a study on gullibility, to see how many people will believe a false claim even when accompanied by a video proving it's false?
 
I'm starting to think Enegizer may have a grudge against the royals given how often he brings up how bad they are, last time round I seem to remember him getting a bit tied up in knots claiming the royals allowed things to happen that they shouldn't, whilst at the same time claiming they were too powerful.

Please quote me saying the child was seriously injured or dead.

Well I admitted that in the opening post. :p

To be fair I don't often post about them, there was the Barbados thread and this one which is front page news.

Blah blah, ANYONE WHO DOESN'T OBEY ME IS BAD THING! Cry me a river. I don't care.

You chose that claim as the title of the entire thread! You repeated it and defended it in the 3rd post in this thread, in response to the second post as that post pointed out your claim is untrue.

You're not very familiar with honesty, accuracy or consistency. You're obviously a "progressive".

Whenever I've been to London it has been obvious when the guards are coming through, they also don't just march through without announcing themselves. Whenever I've seen someone pushed away/over it has been because they have about the awareness of those people who don't notice an ambulance full lit up and sirens coming when driving or silly people who think they can play chicken with them.

Maybe the parent in this instance had too much on their hands with multiple kids and/or the kid was confused/unaware who knows but I suspect there is more to it than this brief clipped bit. End of the day if you visit a zoo you might want to keep your kids from climbing in the lion enclosure.

Ok so no quote of me saying the child was dead, because it was an obvious lie from you.

Still waiting for your thoughts on the actual incident, I'm not going to engage in bickering about what you think is going on in my head.

EDIT - Just for you I have asked for the title to be changed to stop people whining so they can focus on the real issue.

No question the parents should have been supervising their kid and visitors shouldn't be antagonising what are stationed military personnel, they get what's coming to them, but this kid appears to be totally innocent and was accidentally in the way. The soldier knowingly endangered a child in a very brain dead fashion, even my horse won't walk into someone.

And now you're lying about what I said. Are you allergic to the truth?

I think that making false accusations for political purposes is a real issue. You made them. You supported them when it was pointed out that they were false. Your only regret about your actions is that you got caught.

Lol what? And this is where you are as silly as Energize with your pathological dislike of one group which leads you to irrationally ascribing all negative traits to them :cry:

Energize identifies as a right wing Libertarian, so pretty much the antithesis of a progressive.
