Did anybody else know this?

I beg your pardon, you impertinent runt?

Prove that statement. I'm getting bored asking. Just do it, fool.

 

What do you want? I imagine the comments have been deleted by now. However seeing as everyone reported it as I have said and there has not been even a suggestion of racism I do not see why you are taking umbrage at this.

I suppose the only things that you think you know are things that you have seen with your very eyes, otherwise you are a hypocrite.

 

You imagine? Have you made any effort to find out, or are you still spouting statements that you imagine might have been said at some point or another?

Do you have anything of substance to say or is it all just some things you might have (or 'of') thought about when you were stoned, der?

 

And how am I meant to find the offending comments? Am I suppose to guess which random people made them and look at their twitter accounts? I think that the fact that every media outlet that has commented on the incident have all said the exact same thing provides a reliable enough account of what occured. If there had been racist comments made I think either it would of been reported in the first place or Hamilton would of something about it and not apologised to the racists.

Out of simply curiosity what do you think happened?

When in a hole

Stop digging

You turn up and pile in, full of self righteous indignation, condemning a top driver for reacting to abuse, knowing the flavour of abuse he gets, made famous by Spanish fans blacking their faces, you would have to be an imbecile to assume that he has never received racist abuse online

So you flippantly belittle his integrity by stating as fact that he reacts to a lesser provocation if his choice of prose

You then latch on to this style of prose as justification for the attacks

When pushed, you admit that you have assumed all of this

Instead of learning from this you start to lash out at your intellectual nemesis hoping to save face by turning to insults

You pathetic little jackass

 

Choose your own answer:
a) if you can't find them don't quote them as if they're fact;
b) if you quote them as fact make damn sure you can find them.
It's not rocket science, is it, posty?

Well, you're one up on me on that. Can you please post the BBC, CNN, ITN and Sky News links that support your assertion that "every media outlet... has commented on the incident"?

Duh. I'm sorry - I don't mean to denigrate your illiteracy but - FFS! It's not like we haven't been bringing it to people's attention today. Why - WHY - do you think that 'of' means in any way the same thing as 'have'? What is your problem with the English language? Are you Malaysian or Venezuelan?

I think Hamilton tweeted and that should have been the end of the matter. I tell you, unlikely as it may be, if people like you jumped on me for using expletives in my tweets I'd tell you to shove your dad's cock up your all-too-flatulent arse, you infantile porridge-brained ****. OK?

 

In that tweet, Hamilton thanks his fans, and then said "to all the haters", he he didn't give a ****. The reasons why these people were "haters" we don't know. In this article, it says he "tweeted his anger at people who have allegedly criticised his tweets." At the time he was writing tweets like this - people might have been mocking him over his writing style, but it might have been for other reasons.

The fact remains - we don't know what the motivation was for his "haters", although the majority of it is alleged to be his writing style.

I think you should both stop the argument now, and I suggest when a mod comes online, they delete a few comments.

CookinFlatSix,
Here's a few suggestions:

-Play nice! Try and be civil to everyone
-Respect everyone's opinions even if you disagree
-Please avoid personal insults

 

I have not assumed anything, the only way I have assumed anything is if you assume that light takes about eight minutes twenty seconds to reach the earth from the sun, have I timed it myself? No but I have read it from various sources and conclude it is correct.

I also recommed you read the entire thread because I have not criticised Hamilton for anything or said he has not been subject to racism in the past.

Will you put your hands up and admit you are wrong? I doubt it and I expect you to continue spouting libelous rubbish.

 

...I think this thread needs closing...

 

*flummoxed*

What kind of an example is that?

Sheesh. It's just a tweet. STFU.

 

Yup, I regret starting this now...

 

Got to admit, it was the stupidest idea for a thread I've ever seen.

 

Well, not necessarily, with the right response, it could have become an interesting thread on how high-profile drivers deal with pressure from 'haters' and negative media. Instead it turned into petty squabbling. I think some of us were wondering on another thread how long it would take for the keyboard warriors to return... oh well.

 

Well like I said before, I thought it was funny at the time.

Just let the post die people, it's not doing the forum any favours.

 

genjirrumatio:

Why do you not just look it up for yourself, it is hardly hard just google it and see what you find.

Answer me this, what are your parameters for determining the truth? Because for me if several media outlets report the exact same thing and nobody contradicts it, then I feel it is reasonably safe to say it is accurate.

ps. My bad about the 'of', I changed what I was going to say and did not change them.

 

Ok folks I think we should close this one....

I being new, have seen sides of members that I would not like to see again...

although I have seen signs of promising debating here on not606.

 

Sorry SilverArrow for partially ruining the thread, however I do not think I really said anything provocative or wrong, just that genjirrumatio took umbrage with it for whatever reason.

 

Not with the O.P. as it stands. Not at all. This was very much a "look WTF Hamilton's been up to, the little idiot" kind of post. There was no counterbalance or evidence of other celebrity Twitter contributors. It was just "Hamilton - what a nobhead". So I think you're completely wrong about the intentions behind the thread.

It's not my job to prove your point.

What media outlets, I ask yet again? Provide us with some evidence, FFS.

 

I just asked you to support your opinion with evidence and you completely failed to do so. No big deal, WUM.

 

Well I can see that you two will never get on.....
