How this little fuckstick gets off on the worst emotional pain another human is suffering from is sickening.

If racism or threats on social sites is deemed illegal and warrants a jail term then so is laughing at the death of someone's baby. :(

He did WHAT? I assume that this is to do with Gary Barlow's tragedy?

CommaChameleon · 09/08/2012 23:31

He has been posting 'jokes' and comments on Twitter about Gary and Dawn Barlow's stillborn daughter.

He's some Big Brother nonentity I've never heard of before, but had someone done this to me when my son was stillborn or when my premature daughter died it would have destroyed me.

sorry, link

FlouncyMcFlouncer · 09/08/2012 23:34

This has to be prosecutable, surely.

WorraLiberty · 09/08/2012 23:36

I watch Big Brother and even I don't remember him.

Having Googled, he's obviously a vile, attention seeking sick non entity.

As much as I can see you started this thread with good intentions, it actually only serves to spread his sick bile even further and to 'up his public profile' which he's clearly so desperate to do.

Please don't help him to do this.

greenwichgroove · 09/08/2012 23:38

The guy who tweeted Tom Daley was arrested so why not this lowlife who imo has been much worse.

Loads have complained and twitter have said its freedom of speech.

Imo opinion tweeting someone vile abuse every hour is harrassment.

Its the anniversary of my brothers still birth so not doing too good with this idiot.

missymoomoomee · 09/08/2012 23:39

What a little wankstain. I've just read what he tweeted and that is vile and disgusting and totally inhumane. As if the Barlows don't have enough to deal with without this little turd trying to get a bit of fame off the back of their heartache. Sadly I don't think he will get prosecuted he is being nasty and cruel but I'm not sure its illegal. Surely twitter could ban him or suspend his account or something.

Lixa · 09/08/2012 23:39

That's beyond disgusting :(

Honestly though, I really don't think we should talk about it at all, as the little toerag is only doing this to get attention. I bet he's hoping for a nice juicy mumsnet thread. So maybe let's not give it to him?

squeakytoy · 09/08/2012 23:40

utterly vile.. sickening. :(

lastnerve · 09/08/2012 23:40

That is horrific there are no words Sad

squeakytoy · 09/08/2012 23:40

and yes, I think perhaps we should ask MN to take his name out of the title, because the sick deranged creep will just thrive on more publicity.

CommaChameleon · 09/08/2012 23:49

The one thing that might be a blessing is that when we lost our babies, both times we we in a bit of a bubble for weeks. We were not watching TV or reading papers or logging onto the computer. We were just dazed and isolated and nothing, nothing at all, felt worse or more important than our baby being gone. Nothing else really got through to us for weeks and even now people can mention something big in the news from that time that everyone seems to know about but me.

Admittedly we were not famous and no doubt someone has been in touch with the Barlows to tell them about this...but they might not be aware of whatever it is he as actually said. They might at least be protected from that.

greenwichgroove · 10/08/2012 00:00

He has been reading messages of support as he tweeted thanks a couple of days ago. Hopefully he has missed this bastards though..

WorraLiberty · 10/08/2012 00:07

I doubt he would have missed it and (as much as I do think this thread was started with good intention) he certainly won't miss it if chat forums pic it up and include his name/links to his profile etc...

It all adds to the publicity for the sick creep trying to gain attention.

ratspeaker · 10/08/2012 08:29

Not a scooby who the guy is but he sounds vile, a stillbirth is not something to joke about
I'm not going to google him and get more hits for him
But I really think the title of the thread should be changed, why add into the publicity he's generating?

FermezLaBouche · 10/08/2012 08:32

Bloody Hell - I knew he'd made some comments, but they're fairly disgusting. Tbh h'es obviously out for the attention, the dick. He's someone who I can't help feel would benefit from a bit of a kicking, rather than giving him the attention he so desperately wants.

Yes I am being flippant.
No I wouldn't shed a tear if this did happen.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/08/2012 08:41

YANBU, I really hope he is.

sugarice · 10/08/2012 08:46

He's vile and best ignored until he crawls back to that shithole he came from.

Stinkyminkymoo · 10/08/2012 08:48

In all honesty, words fail me. I am days away from giving birth and this would be a nightmare for me. To have someone behave like this and get away with it is quite frankly criminal.
Disgusting.

HecateHarshPants · 10/08/2012 08:55

Vile bastard.

He is getting away with it because twitter, facebook and the like don't care about feelings, decency, compassion, etc. Is it covered by legislation - eg equality act, is it a hate crime that is prosecutable ,and if so, could some of the shit hit us.

If the answer to that last bit is yes, they'll do something. In all other cases, they'll say 'freedom of speech', 'we can't monitor our users' etc.

I just think it is a shame that there are people out there who enjoy hurting others. I realise some people have the whole 'it's only words' thing, or say log off, or go off on a rant about censorship, or even mock those who find such things disgusting and worthy of some sort of action, but really, is it that bad to hope for a tiny little bit of human compassion and think that people really ought to not get off on being so vile?

TiaMariaandDietCoke · 10/08/2012 09:07

Vile, vile, horrible man. I hope for his sake he's never in the position to fully understand just how hurtful those comments are - I wouldn't wish it on anyone, even someone as truly awful as him.

zippey · 10/08/2012 09:16

I would wonder if its the real guy, or someone pretending to be him. It happens quite a lot. Whatever the reason, this is vile, and he should be prosecuted.

Nancy66 · 10/08/2012 09:18

ever heard the phrase 'the oxygen of publicity?'

....that's what you're doing here - giving an absolute nomark the platform he craves
