Any Mumsnet husbands off throwing bottles at police horses today?

Well presumably their wives share similar views?

Mine's asleep on the sofa with his hands on his balls.......his feet are stinking the living room out.

I spend half my life moaning at him but recent events have made me realise there's a lot to be said for a man of simple means who pulls his weight when needed, goes out about 4 times a year and his only annoyance when he's drunk is his habit of wandering round the house for hours on end.

I honestly can't imagine him being a dock and throwing Nazi salutes. And if he did he wouldn't be getting back in my house.

The women who comment on my local paper might be. Grin

megletthesecond · 13/06/2020 17:09

There's families in my estate with blokes like that. The women are just as awful.

GuerrillaShoppa · 13/06/2020 17:11

WhatWouldYouDoWhatWouldJesusDo Mine's at large in the garden with the loppers - you are so right. Going down the garden to offer him a beer.

FlamedToACrisp · 13/06/2020 17:13

Ironically, it's probably only because the Nazis lost that they have the freedom to behave like that.

montyliesandmontycries · 13/06/2020 17:15

I have a wife, so not me. Oh, and she's not a cracker-head, racist anyway.
However my experience of people with extreme views like these are that their families hold the same ideals and that Bob or Dave will have proudly told the mrs he was off to make a stand and protect Winston and she'll be completely supportive. And when he finally gets released from the police station he'll tell her that he was provoked and had to defend himself so that'll be that.

Just saw a photo of a revolting fat spud peeing next to the memorial to pc Keith Palmer. Jesus...

HannahStern · 13/06/2020 17:18

I'm sure there are plenty posters on mumsnet who are shacked up with these darlings.

CayrolBaaaskin · 13/06/2020 17:19

Why are we still blaming women for men’s wrong doings? Who cares who they’re married to?

mencken · 13/06/2020 17:20

thing is, nothing is going to change what passes for the minds of types like this. No protest is going to make them suddenly go 'you know what? Skin colour really doesn't matter!' They have been brought up to think this way and will teach their kids the same.

so women do have control in that we can avoid these types and breed it out. Unfortunately there are women who think the same and will go for these types. If you know any such Neanderthals, stay well clear.

and it is a pity that a democracy with a right to protest means that they are allowed out too.

They don't tend to have the same outward signals like tattoos

WTAF? So tattoos are the outward sign of being a right-wing fuckwit in your judgypants world?

Schoolisback1973 · 13/06/2020 17:22

Oh, they have GFs and wives! They’ve been busy posting on MN.

We saw plenty of women of their ilk in the run up to the general election. The ones who voted for Johnson to “get Brexit done”.

Abraid2 · 13/06/2020 17:24

They must be so proud. 😏

theDudesmummy · 13/06/2020 17:26

I think the poster meant Nazi/swastika/racist tattoos specifically

Racist tattoos like the ones already mentioned in posts above obviously.

For the record my partner has loads and loads of tattoos and I'm covered in piercings (but haven't been able to get tattoos as much as I would love to) so Iv got absolutely no issue with bodywork as art but that is not remotely what I was talking about!

Which is obvious in the context of this thread but go ahead and deliberately misconstrue so you can have a little dig and ignore the actual point of the post!

Tellmetruth4 · 13/06/2020 17:30

The only man I know who’s like that beat his wife and kids so I’d say it’s the type of woman who’s just happy he’s out of the house.

WhatWouldYouDoWhatWouldJesusDo · 13/06/2020 17:30

GuerrillaShoppa we truly are the luckiest of lucky ladies...........even if mine can't cope when I thrash him at trivial pursuit 🤨😂😂😂Grin

Schoolisback1973 · 13/06/2020 17:31

Lordfrontpaw, I’ve read a few goady racists threads and posts on here.

Tellmetruth4 · 13/06/2020 17:32

Also the type of woman in this article:

RuffleCrow · 13/06/2020 17:33

So let me get this straight, they're "protecting british history" by doing Nazi salutes at a war memorial where British people who were killed by Nazis are commemorated each November? Why don't they just go the whole hog and use it as a public toilet? Angry

Lordfrontpaw · 13/06/2020 17:34

@Schoolisback1973

Lordfrontpaw, I’ve read a few goady racists threads and posts on here.
I try to avoid as my blood pressure is up at the moment. There are some charmers to be sure.
