Bald pervert groped woman in MacDonalds

From the local paper. Headline not mine! What relevance is it whether the guilty party is bald or has hair as long as Jesus Christ? I despair of the media.

Is he still on the loose, or was he apprehended?

Maybe it'd help identify him though? I assume as it's Mcdonalds there is cctv. Maybe if you have a bald (suspected) pervert in your life you will double check to see if it's them.

Ok, well I see what you are saying then, if that is the case.

Its an identifier. Same as whether the pervert was male or female, height, age, clothing or hair colour (or lack of hair). I despair you don't understand this.

Yes but OP says suspect apprehended. So it's like saying red haired woman arrested for shoplifting, isn't it?

Not only do you know exactly what the poster meant, so no need to comment, you decided to make a smart arse remark to try and shame OP.

Way to go Hmm

Now, have a think about your behaviour this morning because deliberately being mean to others isn't an attractive quality in a human.

The media get their identifier information (mainly) from the police. They get that information from the victim and any witnesses. To avoid confusion they will print all identifiers they have.

Considering that nowadays sexual perverts get bail easily, and rarely punished, I think its good to put as many identifiers as possible in the media, especially locally.

I can appreciate it if others don't want to know, but I do.

Do they mean " bold"

DonnaRix · 06/04/2023 10:56

Are you…concerned that his feelings might be hurt? Who cares? Bald is not a protected characteristic.

Now this makes sense

LakeTiticaca · 06/04/2023 11:06

Your bothered about the hurty feelz of a perv?
Putting it out there that he is bald might help identify other victims who were groped by a bald man.
Some posters on here should really think things through before they post

GoodChat · 06/04/2023 11:07

It's just a descriptor. What's the problem?

Nah it's annoying, it's not Macdonalds, don't know why so many people spell it incorrectly.

pickledandpuzzled · 06/04/2023 11:09

I guess it's the fear that people will think all bald men are gropey perverts.

Ha ha! I clocked it but didn't say anything. It shows how familiar I am with going into McDonald's doesn't it, that I cannot spell the name!

JoanThursday1972 · 06/04/2023 11:14

No, for those of you who have suggested it, I don't give a rat's a**e about the perpetrator's "feelings". It's not about that. It's about rubbish journalists.

No clenching here.

Funny how calling someone out for nasty remarks is seen as 'clenching' and reason for you to try and have a go...
