Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

Poor Lass was attacked because she was dressed as a Goth. If I was a youngster I'd probably have a similar look as I really like it. This is just disgusting behaviour on the part of young thugs with nothing better to do. I hope they are caught and punished..

Re: Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

Hi

I simply cannot understand the mentality of some.

Goths are gentle souls, no threat to anyone.

When my daughter came out as a Lesbian, she was working in a very macho male environment.

She was subject to horrendous abuse

She is well capable of looking after herself physically, but the constant pressure did have an effect, she was worried about her job.

I find this completely wrong.

That is TERRIBLE. I hope they get long prison sentences, which should have hard labour included, and no privileges.

Re: Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

My opinion is that Goths look a bit silly, but each to their own...

As I have, in the past, worn scarlet velvet flares, beads, and shoulder length hair, I'm in no position to criticise anyone

Wasn't there a case a few years ago, in Preston, I think, where a Goth couple were walking through a park and attacked, the result being that the man was killed and the woman ended up in hospital?

Making fun and having a laugh is one thing, but beating someone up for the way they look or dress is beyond me

Re: Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

This ‘should’ be treated as a hate crime.
Some people just can’t stand different or diversity.
How incredibly sad. She looks and sounds just adorable too.
What a shame.
Love the mauve purple hair too but I admire weird & different.

Re: Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

Hi

Why do some attack those who are different?

We have a Downs Syndrome young couple here.

They both work, but need support, which we give freely.

The prats at the back continually harass them for working, when they themselves do not.

There is quite simply so much wrong here in the UK which needs sorting.

It is my view that our entire Benefits System needs a complete overhaul.

A Downs Syndrome Couple who want to work need supporting and their wages need to be upped to the National Average.

The Prats at the back, who choose not to work, should get Naff All.

I would willingly pay more tax to support those who want to work.

I resent every penny I pay to those who choose not to.

A Plague on them, basic rent paid directly to the landlords and Food Stamps, that is all I would give them.

Clothes from Charity shops, it seriously riles me, it really does.

A Socialist I may be, but nothing is for Free.

You work, end of.

Our DS son has never been subjected to any form of harassment, thank goodness. He appears to be loved and respected by all who know him.

Re: Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

I come from the UK of the 40's where none of this existed - where as it come from - from certain sections of the working class [wait a minute that was me?] who have passed on or failed to pass on acceptable patterns of behavior and decency - I never had luxuries as a kid but I had discipline - never had parental physical violence but had love and caring - this behavior comes from a sub-set of our social structures - unfortunately the lowest of the low - I think we used to call them scum back then and they still are

Re: Attacked for the Way She Dressed.

Some people just love to have someone to hate. It is disgusting why human beings can't like each other.
