To be blunt, I consider physical stealing to be worse than a few insulting words.


It depends on whether it was deliberate, or just an instictive response.
Given how it was worded it, I'm inclined to think it was the former, which is poor form.

Apologies, didn’t realise I had to specify something was explicitly wrong otherwise I would be condoning it. Point noted for future reference.

Calling someone an expletive is an instinctive reaction
, however using a racial slur is a conscious decision.

For example if a black person ‘mugged’ me I would probably respond with ‘you thieving c word’ that would be instinctive ‘you thieving black c word’ however is not

If a white person mugged me would I respond with ‘you thieving white c word’ ? No of course I wouldn’t

Above btw is not an attempt to bypass swear filter

Yes I did report it to store staff but they said it was LEGAL (them smoking pot) and they couldnt really do anytihng of it...

Why bother taking camera footage then?

Im sorry Paul I wasnt thinking.... I was crying and upset and as I ran across the lot,they laughed and got further away....... (If my friend wasnt waiting for me in his car and was there,I know he would have chased them and tackled them and got my money back but I am not that fast)

Well as they ran off then there was no danger there at all and they clearly weren't interested in doing you any physical harm.

While any theft is unacceptable, it was only a small amount of money and really not worth chasing them or getting yourself into bother over.

Next time someone asks for money just say I'm sorry I don't have any cash.

Yea I hear ya Stevie......

Please dont fight over this guys,I am sorry........ I maybe didnt act like most of you would but I didnt mean any harm.......

I think you were probably put in a situation you didnt expect to be in and that caused you to react in a way that not even you knew how to react.
It does not excuse any racism and ofcourse that is plain wrong but I think you have probably learned from your mistakes.


Next time I suggest just ignoring them and moving away, especially if they are smoking and dealing pot. You dont want to be anywhere near that.

[Dude111]

No I def do not!!!!!!

Ya got that right!

I don't really have the option as I'm kind of tied to apple now. As we use ipads and my wife & I have iPhones it's now more about how much they now control everything around the home. (Hue, Tapi, Harmony hub for TV, Fans etc, Yamaha AV also streaming to the AV is excellent). I can't fault apple's products as they do work seamlessly for everything we need.

It's just iTunes. The biggest pile of crap software going. Took 3 attempts to install it as it wouldn't open. I would have thought they'd have improved it by now. I wiped off close to 20gb of music. Luckily I've managed to put some of it back on now anyway.

I ripped all my CDs to my phone into FLAC format (some 8,000+ tracks), so all my stuff is available even if no data signal is available.

My moan? Nice people. *Specific* nice people.

Context: Been a MUFC fan since 1985 so naturally Liverpool are the enemy. When I split with my son’s mother she brought him up to support LFC just to piss me off and yep it’s worked beautifully. So when he asks for Liverpool kits for his birthday I’ve had to buy them. And when he wanted an Anfield stadium tour, yep I had to take him. You can imagine how much that pissed me off however his happiness is paramount.

Anyway I bought him a kit for his birthday which turned out to be ridiculously small (the way they ascertain the size on their website is absolute bollards, really stupid) and I’ve needed to return it for a refund as I can now get it cheaper elsewhere.

So my moan? It’s just how helpful and friendly the club shop staff have been about the whole thing. There were a few issues that needed ironing out but they were absolutely brilliant. I wanted them to be dicks about it (because…..Liverpool) but no, very helpful and friendly.

And to possibly make it worse for you the tours very good as well (in my opinion).
