  1. “We were just joking,” O’Rourke said in his defence. But the complainant said she felt embarrassed by the incident. “I am shocked. Honestly I am really shocked,” the magistrate declared.

    “I am going to warn you and any others – we may be a small island, but we don’t have small minds. You disrespect a lady and you think it is a joke?

    “If this is how you behave in your country, that is fine. But it is not how we behave in ours,” she declared, as she remanded O’Rourke to HMP Dodds until today when he will return for sentencing.


  2. Football star gets 30 for slapping lawyer on butt in the court room!!


  3. a most interesting comment….
    “a few thoughts ….this guy has to ditch that bitch he is married to , talk about throwing someone under the bus.”

    Wife not singing with choir, and it appears that someone are disappointed with the wife…..

    All of that false shock until she either got a call from some fool minister or she turned stupid overnight..

    You are basing your conclusion on what you believe.. At one time some people held the belief that the earth was flat. Subsequent events have shown that such a belief is incorrect. Having made such a dogmatic statement about your belief, it is evident that no amount of reasoning will change your position.

    At this point, this is the evidence we have in the public domain:

    The woman alleges that the white tourist slapped her backside
    The wife of the white tourist asks him how he could slap the woman on her backside and accused him of beng stupid for doing it (video clip posted to the blog in this thread)
    At no point during the confrontation with his wife did the white tourist deny slapping the woman on her backside
    The next day in court the white tourist pleaded guilty to slapping the woman on the backside and said he did it as a joke
    The following day the white tourist was discharged without conviction. A story circulated in the media that this was due to CCTV footage which did not corroborate the woman’s claim. So far such CCTV footage has not been made available for public viewing

    Do you have some other evidence which is not listed above?

    This has some minorities can’t show their faces on facebook anymore, how very embarrassing..how very deserving…

    ….it exposes the filthy underbelly of such a tiny island…where clowns pick up fire rage for white criminals even when they are guilty and would demonize a black victim to cover up and carry out their crimes..

    Not anymore, we are waiting for you, we will remove you from creating further destruction in the lives of the majority population…and expose you everywhere.

    Which means they learned nothing from the UK scandals and the picture of the racist hunchback crying in today’s guardian after all the crimes she committed against people, including the Windrush generation and her crimes against Black Caribbeans.

    …….they are pretending they don’t know what time it is…but they will learn…

    Tomorrow I am going into town, the first white male tourist i see i will slap him on his bottom. I don’t want to hear any complaints from him, after all according to some people here it is a minor matter. If the police come i will call them effing so and so’s, after cursing the police is only a minor matter. I know that i will be reprimanded and discharged. No problem.

    How is it that i have lived for nearly 70 years and have NEVER slapped a stranger, a non-consenting person, male nor female, black nor white?

    My time has come to begin slapping people whenever I feel like it.

    Sorry that my old lady is dead. Long ago a white male tourist tried a similar stunt with my sister who was employed at a hotel. My mother also an employee of the hotel was a church when she got the news. She went home, did not put down her Bible nor song book, but took up her Collins and went straight to the hotel to bring the perverted bastard to a Christian understanding.

    Somebody, preferably the Minister of Tourism needs to warn these people to keep their hands offa our women. If they don’t people, even black working class Christian middled aged women WILL take the law into their own hands.

    If the “system” does not deliver justice, then people will make their own justice.

    An “no” David, we do not want anybody’s blood, just JUSTICE.

    Simple you are being ridiculous…

    I say it is a simple matter in terms of it being handled by the court as it was and in terms of the act done.

    Good heavens at no time is hitting someone acceptable.

    It is further ridiculous for you to suggest u will go slap tourists as some correlation to this stupid event.

    The blog wants to make this one offensive act by an arrogant, privileged white man as a spring board for the regular BS some spout of race relations … So be it.

    Citing the incident of the football player is also utterly out of context: how can that arrogance and privilege of slapping a LAWYER in a COURTROOM equate to the incident above.

    Carry on smartly!


  11. What about this scenario!!!

    “The blog wants to make this one offensive act by an arrogant, privileged white man as a spring board for the regular BS some spout of race relations … So be it.”

    Look at ya pedant, meant to be dumb comment again…and see ya actually struck the nail on the head…it’s clowns like you encourage and enable the white privilege so that it never ends…cause ya see it as a mere offensive act and not the VICIOUS DESTRUCTIVE CRIME THAT IT IS…blind as usual.

    That is the norm in Barbados, you have arrogant, privileged, wannabe local whites on the island who have acted the same way for decades, ya know why, because arrogant, titled, corrupt NEGROS in the parliament and bar association…have for nearly 3 generations…ALLOWED THE PRACTICE of WHITE PRIVILEGE…against their own people, against the majority population.y are the ones allowed it, no one else…

    AND THAT IS A CRIME AGAINST THE MAJORITY POPULATION….THAT SHOULD BE DISMANTLED…if the NEGROS WERE NOT SO CORRUPT.

    They can ask for outside help to dismantle the fraudulent…white privilege they helped build with their partners in crime in the minority community and have practiced for nearly 80 years…

    …, i do believe even they with all the negative exposure they now brought on themselves, if they are not still too greedy, they can see from this british predator’s action and the folly of the magistrate and whomever orchestrated to cut him loose… that the practice of white privilege against the majority will also DESTROY THEM, all the corrupt ministers, lawyers, etc….if they do not dismantle it….we will make sure..

  13. WURA-WAR-on-U Avatar

    Making it clear that the WORLD can understand..white privilege is not merely a misdemeanor offensive act, it is a goddamn CRIME ON EARTH…

    That is the norm in Barbados, you have arrogant, fake privileged whites who think they are somehow anointed …TO ACTIVELY TIEF FROM THE MAJORITY POPULATION, BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THEY WERE TAUGHT TO SURVIVE AND ENABLED BY THE SHITE IN PARLIAMENT….. wannabe local whites on the island who have acted the same way for decades, ya know why, because arrogant, titled, corrupt NEGROS in the parliament and bar association…have for nearly 3 generations…ALLOWED THE PRACTICE of WHITE PRIVILEGE…against their own people, against the majority population, they are the ones allowed it, no one else. and dummies accepted it…as normal.

  14. WURA-WAR-on-U Avatar

    Then ya got any number of dumb, black men, parked and perched on their ice cubes in Canada and elsewhere and they have no empathy for a black person like themselves, black women who birthed their dumb asses….when they are attacked by white perverts with privilege….they just can’t see the seriousness of the situation..

    see why the male population on earth should be significantly DIMINISHED..until we can educate the first privileged batch of men, we allow on the earth….yall want to see some privilege, ok.

    For Blogmaster…who already knows how corrupt the Barbados Supreme and magistrates courts are, corrupted by those paid a salary not to corrupt it or interfere in the judicial processes…crimes the wickedly corrupt, cannot seem to cease.

    “Any letter going to Judge Olson Alleyne or anyone else relating to any court matter in Barbados in which my dead mother Marjorie Knox has been involved will include among other things which we will address in subsequent communication

    (1) That all lawyers involved in all cases, including her own lawyers Henry Forde and Alair Shepherd, failed to exhibit and plead right up to Privy Council the main 1958 family trust contract by which Kingsland was formed

    (2) That the Privy Council handed down a decision based on lies and fraud in the absence of 12 years of the Kingsland accurate Audited Financial Statements required by law. Kingsland was NOT impecunious. David Simmons, then Chief Justice, was a principal of SBG. As such the SBG contract gave him the right to “participate in the negotiations” relating to the price which was to be paid for several compulsory acquisitions of Kingsland’s valuable land so he would have known full well that the at least $22 million owed to Kingsland was still outstanding throughout the hearing of the cases

    (3) That judges Sandra Mason and Andrew Burgess have been promoted without rendering decisions in several court matters including our Mother’s

    (4) That Judge Olson Alleyne has an outstanding decision for 8 years relating to this matter and numerous other matters

    (5) That most of the parties involved in these matters have been dead for years and have not yet been substituted

    Since this is the PERVERT blog, me thinks it’s also perfect for showcasing CORRUPT THIEVES and their destruction of the Judiciary..they have worked hard and for decades, to achieve that status and gain worldwide recognition.

    … no amount of set ups of innocent people and distractions can change that now. They are self-made international superstars of the corrupt variety.

    Piece my friend..it’s on.

    Am just getting some info, the Justice Department needs to look into any RICO (racketeering) cases involving anyone living in Barbados, specifically Peter Allard…there is a set up going on, just hoping innocent people in Barbados and US don’t end up in prison.

    All countries need to watch their step.

  21. @Hal,
    I think you nailed it. Go to the head of the class (again).

    Now all kind of questions can be raised.
    Let me ask a few speculative questions in the hope that we get morei nformation.
    .
    I can create a company and call myself CEO, director, janitor or any title I want.
    Is this what is happening here?
    What is his expertise?

    White Oaks Advisory appears to be a two man operation and will need the input of others.
    Does this man has any connections to White Oaks? If he does, one can understand the haste to get him off of the island,,,,,,


  22. o gazerts not that she was not singing with choir ,but is one dumb bunt…she is staying at sandals probably paid for by him and his job yet in typical female fashion is willing to try and stick the boot in at every chance.not thinking her outbursts may lose him his job by perception and she may not get to live the high life again. the footage must be seen fairness demands it either he did it or she was trying to shake him down.
    Talking loud yes a loving mother and her children out on a lovely shopping trip.
    LOL Hal hope you have the right guy or deep pockets,
    SS yes a christian understanding , dont you be tappin that ass unless you put some money in the collection plate.

  23. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    Theo…all of this is truly frightening, now we know why Bajans can’t talk, fight or resist, this stuff is truly dangerous.

    Who would have thought all of these destructive forces operate on such a tiny piece of real estate, a goddamn tiny rock.

    Stay away until all this can be cleaned up. ..by forces even more powerful

    …According to those in the know…which is not me, just making it clear in case yall as usual try to pin anything on me……cause i got really good at set ups too OVER THE DECADES … been set up so often…so yall set up artistes are just as vulnerable as i am … and equally liable to get fcked…just saying.

    but…..am told IT GETS EVEN WORSE….don’t think i want to know anymore though, my head is full.

    Governments are not supposed to be this dangerous to its citizens.

    But what do i know, ah crazy and unstable.


  24. We need to view the recording which was reported to have been seen by the magistrate to help with the decision to reprimand James O’Rourke. Until we do all is speculative.

    Lawson…ya should send ya daughters to visit with James the Pervert…..see how much ya want to protect him then.

    Just his nasty behavior alone is an indictment and ya missing the part where the wife more than likely paid for the trip since senor Predator looks like he is a managing director without a job or company to manage…lol


  27. The other strange thing about all this is how come no witnesses gave come forward. There must have been people in the gas station when this all happened. The cashiers and the security guard at least.


  28. @ Lawson,

    I do not have deep pockets, my wife is of Scottish heritage. Nor am I making a connection between the post I made and the man accused in the Barbados courts. Any connection is coincidental.


  29. Black Bajans do not really know white women well … they know how to put it on … and as a result of putting it on a lot of innocent Black men are still behind bars … but this doesn’t take away from what transpired between this man and woman … but the truth is the truth …


  30. he doesnt look like 44yrs old either, you betting on Hals sleuthing


  31. he doesnt look 44 yrs old are you betting on Hals sleuthing

  32. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    Oh he could be 44, just premature greying, the drag on his face, premature aging has not really started yet, give him a few.

  33. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    As a matter if fact, all this stress he created for himself should age his backside and his face rather nicely by winter.

    Stress is dangerous too.


  34. So Hal your claiming to be one of us noo, the black sheep of the family as it were.Well as the canny scot you may be, just posting this guys info could cause you trouble. Waru is agreeing with you,you should go out and buy a lottery ticket


  35. We allow discussion to descend to the lowest level.


  36. You are a bit confusing there Mr T. Are you doubting the woman?
    The police probably took statements; people listened to the stern magistrate in what was a cut and dried case; and the next day the fix went in.

    If I was in this gentleman’s position I would be demanding/requesting the release of the CCTV to prove my innocence.

    Strangely it appears that the only person who has not seen the video is the victim. She said she was outraged that she had not seen the CCTV footage which O’Rourke claimed cleared his name. However, she said she did see footage “from the gas station that the police showed me”.

    This investigative desktop warrior must therefore ask.
    We have two conflicting stories, do we also have two conflicting videos?
    Why isn’t Mr O’Rourke demanding the release of the exculpatory video?
    Are they now working on the competing video?
    The man’s wife thought he was guilty and she knows him better than you do Why do you think he is innocent?.


  37. Do you realized that this story knocked White Hoax, the scammers and everything off the BU radar?
    When it start to die, they will release a video in which “Lawson’s” face 🙂 is blurred and a next round of speculation will begin.
    Is that the man?
    Is that the video?
    Why they hide he man’s face he was in the news?


  38. ask harry husbands


  39. Oops..
    A happy good morning to all of Barbados.

    Charmaine my former school mate is a hard-working taxi driver who works long and hard hours to support her family including her late husband who was incapacitated for a very long time. I have no reason to doubt her story as a former outstanding school mate and prefect.

    This white racist drunk rogue trash came to Barbados with a pre-conceived notion. Perhaps the British Consulate saw him as an embarrassment and decided not to turn up.

    I wonder what the punishment would have been if a Bajan had done this in the UK.


  42. The issue here is about public confidence in the court system to dispense justice. We should be satisfied that the punishment fits the crime. The vacuum created by the inconsistency of the info in the public domain is the worry. Until we see the recording and the transcript of the court case to decide for ourselves there were mitigating circumstances, it is all speculation by you and others.

  43. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    “The man’s wife thought he was guilty and she knows him better than you do Why do you think he is innocent?.”

    Indeed..

    James P will not be asking for the release of any video…he already jumped out with his…trust me and thank god the footage cleared me…but you can’t see it…cause am the only one who saw it.

    He really screwed up there.

  44. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    Philly…i totally believe this lady, it is clear James Pervert’s attention was uninvited and unwanted, he should have been jailed for his 3 CRIMES.

    If …..some lowlife had not interferred in that judicial process.

    Despite some misgivings, I am still giving the magistrate a kinda sorta benefit of the doubt, because we done know how the corrupt in the parliament and the judiciary operate when they get calls from their corrupt tiefing masters and they are hellbent on ….foisting white privilege practices on the population.

    AND…as all the criminal minorities were lined up on facebook calling for the victim’s arrest and destruction….the set up was clear…these lowlifes are EVIL…and have no problem profitting from the rapes and victimization of black women and children by rapist tourists…no problem at alll…and ya lowlife government will never protect black women and children from these beasts…,as long as there are million dollar bribes in it for them…no a man on here can say otherwise….THEY KNOW IT’S TRUE.

    Maybe it’s time the corrupt in parliament and the judicuary tell the criminal minorities that living off the backs of black people indefinitely…..IS NOT A REAL JOB.

  45. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    Or…we will have to get some HUMAN RIGHTS organizations on the island to monitor these demon fckers…which ALL my instincts are telling me is VITAL…because they are sleazy and will find a way to sell out the people.


  46. @TheOGazerts
    I certainly don’t doubt Charmaine and don’t thnk the white tourist is innocent from the evidence I’ve seen so far. What I’m particularly interested in is the magistrate’s 180 degree turn within 24 hours.

    Like others, I suspect that there has been an intervention to pervert the course of justice in this case but I can’t prove this suspicion.

    Maybe the court transcripts will clarify why the magistrate’s final sentence is completely at variance with her statement when remanding O’Rourke to Dodds for sentencing. If the transcripts don’t do this, then the judicial authorities need to make a statement explaining it.

    As Bajans, it’s time that we start holding these big-ups to account.


  47. I had a family member hit and killed by a truck outside a rum shop, you have never seen such a case of mass blindness and collective amnesia in your life usually it is difficult to get locals to shut up.So lets not hear about whites stick together etc it cuts both ways.

    Does this logic apply to the ex PM’s brother too?

    Richard Delisle Arthur.

    Thanks Hal … understand now why you raised it!!

    A woman getting slapped on her behind is a misdemeanor in many jurisdictions.

    A slap on the rear end is common, sometimes it is not taken well in which case the law gets involved.

    Why on earth would we want to waste time going through a transcript of a hearing into a misdemeanour?

    How does black and white get into this?

    Is this another case of brainwashing?

    Remember our leader, Liz Thompson converting Greenland into a case of black and white.

    Remember the white Caucasian male remark!!?

    Stupid woman, and now her example has created another set of stupid women … and men!!

    John…shut.up

    ,,,…we are shutting down you criminal minorities and ya nasty, evil plans for the majority population. Get used to it…yall should not have gone on facebook to attack the victim. ..big mistake, now we will make sure you demons are ALWAYS monitored for when ya setting up to kill people by accident…and by other means.

    Or would u prefer it done on facebook since ya complaining to B7logmaster, yall love to attack black people on facebook. We like facebook too.


  50. Indeed, I can understand that there are some who would wish to divorce race from the event. They would even tell you that if a black man did this to their wife, mother, sister, daughter or any female relative, they would never see it as a black and white issue. And they may be stating the truth.

    But they know that the black Barbadian judge/magistrate will not send that man home the next morning. They know that he would be made an example of. The message would go out look and clear “Keep your grubby black hands off of cute white asses or you will spend your life in jail”.

    To John add this to your list of how does black and white get into this?
    http://barbadostoday.bb/2016/06/21/blp-consultant-resigns-following-kicking-incident/
    The man had the integrity to resign. The chicken-hearted management did not have the courage to fire hime.
    I would bet that he would not kick white or black in Canada.

    Our country is failing its citizens
