Gordon R Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 Whilst watching coverage of the Queen's death, there have been a couple of idiots in the crowd. One ran out into the road in front of vehicles carrying Royals, another heckled from within the crowd. The first was taken to the ground and rushed away by the Police. The second was swiftly detained and led away by the Police. Whilst I applaud their actions, just where are their colleagues when eco-zealots block roads?

Totally agree, the Police are a disgrace in the way they handle protests. Nothing wrong with Heckling Andrew in my book, shame Harry and Megain didn't get the same the distress they have caused the Queen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think that the heckling of Andrew in that setting was appropriate?then the divide between our views and opinions has just widened substantially more than it already was. This memorial isn’t about Andrew, Harry or anyone but if for Queen Elizabeth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbob Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 Probably not the time or placeto heckle him but it should tell him that hes isnt going to just slip back in like nothing had happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 Given the occasion, Jaymo, you are correct, but I recall someone on their way to see a dying relative and the road was blocked by eco-numpties. That was far more inappropriate in my book. That said, I was glad to see the Police acting properly and swiftly. It has been lacking in recent times.

Arresting someone for a tiny bit of heckling that is his choice whether you agree or not, what happened to free speech it now seems the Police choose who can protest publicly regardless of the actual law. I can't stand the man he thinks he is untouchable and is arrogant beyond belief and the wonderful Queen is gone, the end of an era. The Royals coming through are Woke and very political the very opposite of the Queen and what the RF should be. For me and I suspect many others that is the end of the road with respecting or wanting the RF. The huge crowds are for the Queen.

Free speech is alive and well, but heckling abuse at a person walking behind their mothers coffin isn’t a commendable act of free speech, its despicable. People are allow to disagree and protest against each other but not in that fashion! How would the rest of your family like it if rocked up at your mothers funeral and heckle you for being a Weihrauch shooter, all in the name of free speech!!

Weihrauch17 Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) First of all I haven't allegedly sexually abused under age girls nor paid millions in compensation to my accuser a rather emotive subject for most. Free speech is very obviously not alive and well though is it if you are arrested for heckling a few words. It is not against the law, you might find it in bad taste that is up to you but what he did was legal. It wasn't her funeral, that is on Monday??????

I said he was walking behind his mother coffin and that wasn’t the time for heckling or a protest. So if he heckles at the funeral as well, then he should be arrested? Just clarifying your view?

Your words, it wasn't her funeral so why make the comparison to my mothers? He is allowed to heckle irrespective of circumstance or how appropriate you feel it is, many might think alleged child abuse is a more serious offence than a bit of heckling. I support everyone's right to have a view either way, it is called freedom of speech. Edited September 12, 2022 by Weihrauch17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry please show where I said it was the Queens funeral?? I didn’t, I made an example about your mothers funeral because I thought you might be able to relate to that!! But that’s fine, I can heckle you wherever I like. Thanks for confirming it on a public forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again you put words into my mouth! Please evidence where I said I supported an alleged child abuser. Today was nothing to do with Andrew. It was a mark of resect for an old Lady, and anyone using it as opportunity should be disgraced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 The heckling was totally out of order, but is it worse than preventing people visiting their dying relative? Not in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weihrauch17 Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 If he chooses to put himself there in public he cannot expect not to get flack as he never appears in Public these days because of his alleged antics. It is about the Queen but you simply cannot disentangle everything else from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clangerman Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 maybe the protester was unhappy the departed did not make dukey boy step to the plate and helped pay his victim of real disgrace here is the pretence that’s going on nothing should ever interfere with the truth including respect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its his mother’s coffin he’s walking behind. He is expected and should be there as her Son. Even prisoners get day release for such events. Think this forum has about run it's course.

Gordon R Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) Quote Seriously! Its his mother’s coffin he’s walking behind. Yes. When he put his hands together, the other day and spoke to the press, I honestly thought he was trying to make a public comeback, at a time when few would criticise him. He has dragged the Royal Family through the mud and showed little respect for the Queen when she was alive. Quote Even prisoners get day release for such events. Do they? Or just for the funeral.
