Assaults in Cologne and other European cities part V

[hiddenhome2]

Thread V

Yes I chuck it into word which spell checks.

I wish we could say New Year's Eve as not everyone is used to acronyms, but I can see how?

How about losing the comma after NYE and change traditions at the end to tradition to get those two characters down?

QT bbc.

It is good.

Alternative but don't allow to derail:

were subjected to mass sexual assault

Irrespective of perceived cultural sensitivities

Kelvin fucking McKenzie

i agree jungle 'tradition' is ok.

"were subjected to mass sexual assault

Irrespective of perceived cultural sensitivities"

yes samovar that sounds good, what would this do to the word count?

This is 302 characters ..... just lose two wee characters

irrespective should not be capital i

polenta and others. Just that dh got sniffy, 'well, not in my name' type of thing.

Shadow minister for women and equality on Question Time now.
I'm hoping something is brought up.

I think it's clearer with New Year's Eve rather than NYE. Lots of people will see this through FB etc and might not be used to acronyms

Four - you've lost me! (sorry, I'm tired)

Sniff back.

Maybe we could ask for harassment and assault of women to be treated and prosecuted as a hate crime, that way you are asking for something solid rather than just wanting debate. Sexism just isn't seen to be as bad as racism and it should be. Calling a women a 'fucking slag' should be every bit as shocking and disapproved of as calling somebody a 'fucking nigger'

Agree with this.

There isn't a lot of space so we just added the word hate.

vertigo yes, too tired to think clearly. I'll sign in in the morning.

Vertigo i agree 100%

Large groups of men/groups of men rather than gangs of men?

Can your DH explain why that particular wording bothers him?
