Why do people act like this?

URBAN, or what you might disparagingly call "ghetto", not SUBURBAN. You don't see "rednecks" (BTW that's a racist term in itself) in urban cinemas.

You're not helping the thread just angering people. And not only that, but you're dodging the key issues. It's not about black people or shouting at cinema screens.

It's about people using foul language, being disruptive and ruining other people's cinema experience.

Seeing as you're not prepared to reply back to posts like this which address the main issues, I suggest you leave read the thread and not post in it, you haven't read it carefully enough.
 
I never said that, i said he should have told them to **** themselves instead, dont twist my words ;)

Ah yes, but he is not a master of Krav Maga like yourself so would likely be shafted in future?

Stop being an internet hero, you're not as much fun as platinum87 anyway.
 
Next time I'll keep my mouth shut, now I understand why people don't say anything :rolleyes:

So basically this situation comes down to the law of escalation, when there is conflict, each side will take it to the next step until it reaches the maximum or until one side surrenders.

Keeping this in mind, if you want to get involved you should be willing to escalate the situation to the furthest possible point, which in this particular case would be knocking them all out. Unless you are prepared to do that, if it comes to it, you should do nothing at all.

So i would have several options

1) Leave the cinema
2) Find a member of staff and complain about it
3) Sit there and do nothing
4) Tell them "If you dont shut up, im going to knock you all out"

If someone told me to bow down infront of them, i would also have several options

1) Walk/run away
2) Get help/phone police?
3) immediately knock them all out
4) Make some sort of threat.

Threats dont have to much weight if dealing with those scum

You dont need to know Krav to do what i suggested, its practically the same effect as hitting someone, except you dont bruise or break your knuckles doing it.

Last I checked, Charlotte wasn't a suburban area. Besides, you comment on racism then throw a raciest comment in your post.
 
The worst thing the OP could do is try and take them on, especially with a young brother. It's a bad example to set and a good way of getting your head stoved in.

As for Kwerk, well, lol. Maybe if he stopped getting offended on the behalf of others, he might see where people are coming from.
 
How anyone can think that kind of behaviour in a cinema is acceptable is beyond me. I pay my money to watch and listen to the film, not some joker chatting to his mates or playing music on his phone. They have paid to watch the film as well so why not just watch it for gods sake!

I have only ever had to speak up once in a cinema, went to see Bend it like Beckham years ago and a load of asian kids sat on the back row shouting down to their mates nearer the front. After a while i shouted for them to shut the hell up, they mouthed off for a few seconds saying they would wait for me outside blah blah but then shut up. Spent the rest of the film thinking about when the film ended but didnt have any trouble when we left.

Just out of curiosity, what would you have done in the situation...?

Stop being so close minded. Playing music on their phones, whilst watching a film could be part of their culture.

Racist.
 
I don't think there is anything wrong with a group of young guys making a bit of noise and throwing stuff in the cinema, although it is annoying and very childish. I don't think that it is anti-social or weird or a result of bad parenting. I think they are just having a laugh. But when they want to fight people because they are told to shut up, then they need to get their heads checked. One thing being a loud mouth ******* in the cinema its another wanting to fight people when they tell you to shut up.

Edit, sorry i didnt read your post properly, what would i do if a bunch of scum told me to bow down infront of them..

It really depends, who i am with and what i am doing.. I try act normal to sleep with girls, if i let that side of me out in the open i would blow any chance i have, so in that case i might try to act all passive :(.

What would you do if they pushed you against a wall and started punching you?

Well i would fight, and there would be two outcomes, short/long term

1) i would best them, and win, in that case its done. clean my hands of that mess and continue with whatever i would be doing

2) they would best me. And tbh you really dont even want to know what i would do as revenge at a later date. Basically everything on the forum thats "evil" (news stories and whatnot) have a platinum87 rating of about 5/100

Mine would be like 70/100
 
Thats the reason i go to expensive places in expensive areas filled with posh/rich people..

Basically i would get to a point when i would prefer to knock them out (random scum) rather than sleep with Jessica Alba for example
