Subscriber CaaC (John)+ 5,358 Posted April 5, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted April 5, 2021 Fucking idiots these lot, with the ban being lifted our daughter and a friend were going to take wee Kaiden and her mates daughter up this local park as they love it, sit down and have a picnic and play some games on their iPad things, our daughter and her friend gave it a miss, apparently, some guy got bottled fighting, I hope it sent the bastard to hospital and stitched his mouth up while they were at it. Quote Three charged after mass brawl at Edinburgh Meadows VIDEO Three people have been charged after violence erupted at a mass gathering at The Meadows in Edinburgh. Police Scotland said "thousands" of people gathered at the park to enjoy the sunny weather on Saturday. The force condemned "blatant anti-social behaviour" after social media footage emerged of young men fighting and throwing debris. Officers were called to a series of incidents over the course of the day and told "hundreds" to move on. Ch Insp Sarah Taylor said: "We are aware of the extent of the disorder seen in The Meadows this weekend and we absolutely condemn this FULL REPORT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I get really annoyed with people who dont wear masks in shops. Even a lot of the medical exceptions are bollocks. Not all of them but I could get one because I have asthma even though I can wear one. One of my mates asks people who haven't got the cards around their neck why they arent Some people say that is rude but who cares. If you have an exception card show it otherwise dont be surprised if some people assume you are a cunt. He knows a lot of people who have died because of covid though so it is understandable he gets upset by it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wear the mask as I know if I cough my mouth is covered or if I feel a sneeze coming on I cover my nostrils but there is nothing more repulsive when someone coughs or sneezes and don't cover their mouth or nose..

Your not doing anything wrong though mate. It's the people that dont wear them and dont have a genuine reason. Your actually wearing it when you dont have to that is a good thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, me and the wife getting our second jabs yesterday was told by the nurse that there was a lot of cancellations and people just not turning up where they ended up just binning the serum whatever, the majority of the non-attendants were in the young age group, more than likely they were idiots like her.

Yep, you see them prancing around with no masks, cigs hanging out of their mouths, and with a can or bottle of lager supping away, a lot of them have never been in a hospital ward for a spell and looked at the ones who have caught the virus.

But that a 20 year old student lost his life because of an absolute lunatic just saddens me. You're right, and it is horrible indeed. If you read about his motives, it seems that he's not really a "corona denier" or a "Querdenker" though, but someone who couldn't deal with two years of lockdowns and strict measures, was fed up, completely lost the plot and snapped. Most likely some serious underlying mental health issues, as you don't go shooting people in the face just because you don't want to wear a mask or don't believe the virus is real. That doesn't make it less bad and I'm not trying to defend him, but it does serve as a sad example of the general mental health decline in the last two years.

Is that why violent crime seems to be going up everywhere? Some guy went absolutely ballistic at me the other day at the supermarket and I'm not really sure why, I wasn't really anywhere near his personal space but he decided to slam his shopping cart at me and start shouting "DO YOU WANT TO FIGHT?!?" at me over and over again, to which I responded "Wtf? No? I'm just in this aisle for pasta sauce?" As far as I know, I didn't do anything to him Also flight attendants keep getting the shit kicked out of them once they land at the airport here, which is sad and disgraceful.

I do think that isolation, decrease in regular social support, various preventative and punitive measures, uncertainty, and stress related to it all contribute to worsening mental health overall, yes. The depression and anxiety rates as well as substance abuse appear to have gone through the roof in some places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
