    OLD GAZER YOU HAVE COME UP WITH A SUPPOSEDLY WONDERFUL ARGUMENT AS THE LEFT DO ALWAYS BY APPEALING TO EMOTION. IN ADDITION, YOU HAVE CONVICTED THE TOURIST; INVOKED RACISM, ALLUDED TO PATRIOTISM WHILE INVOKING EMPATHY, DESPITE THE FACT OF RIDICULING OTHER BLOGGERS FOR SOMETHING THAT DID NOT OCCUR. BUT THIS IS A PATTERN OF THE LEFT…IF SOMETHING DID NOT HAPPEN LET’S SAY IT HAPPENED AND MAKE SO MUCH NOISE THAT PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT IT DID HAPPEN AS IN JESSY SMOLLETT, A FAKE CRIME WITH FAKE ACCUSATIONS. YOU HAVE REALLY SUNK LOW, BUT FREEDOM THINKS IT IS JUST YOUR NATURE.

    OLD GAZER …YOU ARE A FAKE NEWS MAN, YOU ARE A FAKE MAN AND I WOULD LIKE TO SAY A FAKE HUMAN BEING! YOU WATCHED PIECES THE LIED LEGION ABUSE FREEDOM CRIER AND NEVER SAID BOO… BECAUSE YOU WERE THE ONE WHO HE TOLD, ““just shoot my brother shoot…she is to be shot on sight.” BUT NOW YA WANT TO MAKE THIS A CLIQUE ISSUE…

    OLD GAZER YOU BELONG TO THE SAME NARCISSIST, SOCIOPATH AND PSYCHOPATHS BROTHERHOOD AS PIECES THE LIED LEGION.

    @John
    If you are correct why remand the gentleman? Reprimand him on the spot? He pled guilty right?

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    You are forgetting he appears to have had two real charges …. Resisting Arrest and Disorderly Conduct.

    My reading is he pled guilty to these two charges!!

    But we won’t know without the itemized list of charges and his pleading.

    The Third charge we have been making noise about I say probably does not exist and never did!!

    It is probably subsumed in Disorderly Conduct!!!!

    What are the sentencing guidelines for these two charges is the real question, in my mind?

    If the man did slap a botsy, his behaviour is out of order, but IF I AM RIGHT, did not breach any law!!

    So the Magistrate cannot convict him of any charge … except Resisting Arrest and Disorderly Conduct!!

    That does not stop the Magistrate from giving him a slap on the wrist because that is all that is available once no law has been broken!!

    Why is this so difficult to understand?


  4. “Try a little harder to filter the noise. This is the key to finding the nuggets.”

    We filter so much that only docility and servility remains.
    A next apologist tells us to postpone our pain until August. At that time what we now find revolting will be acceptable.
    I beg my fellow ‘noise’ crowd not to go so cerebral, that we become focus on the judicial system and ignore the degradation forced on our men and women. We found that nuggets years ago and we all know that system has failed us for decades …

    Up de noise…. If they find it uncomfortable, then “to hell with them”. Up de noise…

    Let them go cerebral elsewhere.. Religion —–> (is over there).


  5. If the police chose to pursue the Resisting Arrest option, he would have to fight.

    If he was arrested for no reason as would be the case of the if a law was not in existence then the Police wrongfully arrested him!!

    All the Police have as a comeback is Disorderly Conduct!!

    If the extent of the conduct is a slap on a botsy and there is no law against it, the Police are under pressure.

    But the press has clouded what is a simple case in the racism that permeates many in Barbados.

    One thing is sure, we have enough negative publicity to be caught with the racist label as well!!

    When Linda Field’s defense attorney defeated the charge against her what sort of settlement did she receive … if any?

    First of all johnny boy…you are an asshole…not a lawyer with any legal training or requisite intelligence…or they would not be making you shite with ya cases at that supreme court and for decades…ya eould have won them already.

    ,,.and unless a REAL LAWYER or the commissioner or the magistrate comes out and says that there are no laws available on the statutes books to sentence a sexual predator to prison for assualt or unwanted touching….when i know men have been sentenced before….ya just an unintelligible asshole.

    I would not even believe what Dale Whistleblower says because he has been fighting the creation of A SEX OFFENDER’S REGISTRY on the island….because he is such a damn criminal himself.


  7. Do you see how the man, the perpetrator of this vile and repugnant behavior, is becoming the victim.

    Let them spin as much as they want. But always remind them “the victim is the woman who had money shove doen her bosom and then her bottom slap”

    Are they so simple that they cannot see what this really was? Must I translate for them? Don’t you realize the man was soliciting?????

    I would love for someone to shove money down your relative bosom and then slap her bottom. I know you would get the message,

    Up de frigging noise.


  8. IF there is no law against the botsy slap, this exercise and noise is great because it exposes the racists for what they are!!

    Their own words convict them!!


  9. You are right about that and that is why you should stop.


  10. You are right about “their own words convict them” and that is why you should stop.


  11. TheOGazerts ,

    I hope the men on this blog are smart enough to understand that slapping a woman on her bottom could cause them to ” encounter ”

    a husband or father who would have to be arrested for assault and possibly attempted murder.

    I am surprised he did not use the ” I was intoxicated ” defence..

  12. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    That’s how uppity, arrogant and nasty they are….Theo…for bottom feeding parasites who cant survive without the majority population.

    What they are forgetting is that James Pervert has returned to UK…

    But minority criminals HAVE TO LIVE ON THE ISLAND WITH THE BLACK MAJORITY.

    the corrupt thieves in parliament will not be able to continue stealing from the majority population and using their money, police and judiciary to protect their bribers, drug and gunrunners, rapists, thieves and abusers of black women forever…,so a wonder wuh they ah go do…..WHEN THE TIDE TURNS.

    Just make sure yall tell the next wave of rapists and pervert tourists yall bring in, that it will not end so.


  13. Waru LOL are you delusional “when the tide turns” your ilk has been harassing white women tourists and locals for years knowing they only have to hide out for a week till the tourist leaves or be put in a line-up which is virtually useless. If you guys cant admit this is an unusual episode, then you are suffering from rump derangement syndrome.

  15. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    Part of the problem is…over the decades, both useless governments have allowed the minorities to believe THAT THEY OWN THE BLACK POPULATION….like property… and all the money the population generates…these same skunks of parliament…gave the minority criminals access to…generation after generation….for 80 years.

    while MALICIOUSLY keeping SLAVE LAWS ON THE STATUTE BOOKS…because doing so ensures they receive million dollar bribes from the repulsive racist minorities…..alsob.ensuring that the majority population will never be FREE OF EITHER OF THEM..

    But now in their uppity arrogance…cause it is plain to see that they cannot even hide their hatred and disdain for black people like the known savages they are……particularly black females beccuse they know that black men are esaiky manipulsted, mentally weaker….and has been their success in keeping the majority population in modern day bondage….weak black males makes for the enrichment of thieves like them.

    So the nasty plan is to use sexual assault and rapes by tourists in the black female popukstion to waeken that mental strength further and keep the populstion ring-fenced….what they never bargained for is those who can see what the evil bitches planned.

    And here we are….having to work to dismantle not one…but 2 criminal syndicates on the island.

    Saw shitehound Carson Cadogan lamenting the slave laws still existing on the statute books…but he neglected to add that those slave laws also served him well in his corruption and tiefing of taxpayers and pensioners money with the same minority criminals and he saw no need to remove those repulsive slave laws for 10 years.


  16. and waru your men arent all that…. didnt rihanna find out chris brown was cheating on her when she found another woman’s lipstick on his knuckles.

  17. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    Lawson…ah want ya to come for cropover and slap a black females butt, since ya dont know what i look like…ah hope ya slap mine.

    You do know the stinking snakes in parliament have actually deliberately kept the poverty levels on the island in that range so they can have sex tourism…which includes young people on the beach begging for money and selling drugs etc…it keeps the dirty ministers in bribe money…cause they know that is what the tourists like…so they created the niche market without any care for the health of those who were forced on the beach just to survive…we see first hand what government does to those who work the beaches…how they are mistreated in favor of criminal minorities….,WHO HAVE NO VALUE.

    …do u know how many beach bums died from AIDS from Canadian women…literally thousands.

    So, all we need now is what are the sentencing guidelines on “indecent assault”!

    No @John, we absoutely do not for those minor matter. The matter did NOT go to any trial and regardless sentencing guidelines are JUST THAT…a guide. The magistrate has discretion.

    It is for these reasons that I view your comments with distress and annoyance…you DELIBERATELY attempt time to mislead with nice sounding prose.

    You sir are truly a dangerous man …. but u are now forever exposed for me…. Alas there are so many like you in our society who are not similarly known for how they seek to reinstill their retrograde perspectives on daily life.

    NP bro…yah done exposed!


  21. not sure if I will be able to pick your butt out in the parade Just trying to picture it from how you have described it to john the skin not cracking tight like a bongo drum with some extra parts kind of resembling a cows udder.


  22. The question many continue to ask – why did a British man James O’Rourke receive a reprimand and discharge from a Barbados court for slapping a woman on the ass.

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    So, David

    The answer to your question is simple.

    No complaint seems to have been filed by the lady.

    The police charged him with how they witnessed him behaved in their presence.

    It isn’t possible to indecently assault someone inside SOL Top Rock and not have witnesses … and of course, the old CCTV!!

    In the apparent absence of a complaint from the lady the matter dropped.

    Amazed it took this long to get there!!

  23. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    All of which ya desperate to see and touch ….lol

    Jonny boy the liar…the lady SAID SHE MADE A COMPLAINT TO THE POLICE….as soon as she saw them drive into the gas station….they could not arrest him or even approach him without that complaint…

    Ya dont just walk up to a person as police and arrest them for resisting arrest..what is the arrest and resisting based on….what crime did he commit that generated a complaint and questioning which resulted in a confrontational resisting.

    Just stick to being a pain in the ass hypocrite…ya better at it….ya just dont have what it takes to be an intelligent lawyer.


  24. Jonny boy the liar…the lady SAID SHE MADE A COMPLAINT TO THE POLICE….as soon as she saw them drive into the gas station….they could not arrest him or even approach him without that complaint…

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    It means then that the CCTV evidence did not support the complaint and the police were left with nothing!!

    Isn’t this something like what the guy said?

  25. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    See…while you are committing malicious mischief on BU…am making sure the majority population know yall dirty plans…so when u think ya making trouble for the majority…guess what.

    Just remember….majority rules.

    Intelligent lawyers never have to grasp at straws.


  26. It isn’t possible to indecently assault someone inside SOL Top Rock by the ATM and not have witnesses!!

    First of all it is an ATM and all sorts of security and surveillance is associated with it

    Secondly the store will have its own surveillance

    …. and thirdly there will be bodies present to see!!

    Either the lady was prevailed upon not to file a written complaint or her complaint was not supportable!!

    The only mention of the CCTV has been by the guy so far!!


  27. No complaint, no case to prosecute or defenf!!


  28. you betcha i want to see it out off pure morbid curiosity , ever since as a kid and visited the ripleys believe it or not museum i cant seem to look away from things that seem unreal, like the elephant man, the merwoman or even something more rare a bajan paying the bar bill.

  29. WURA-War-on-U Avatar

    There ya go again talking shite, it means no such thing when people know about the CCTV set up at that gas station….KNOWS that the cameras function…and function very well.

    Some lowlife like yaself spread a rumor thatt there was no CCTV footage, which according to those who know…is a lie….and since both u and James Pervert are liars…guess who i believe.

    So there lies both ofbu…with egg on ya faces..

    They should put that on ya tombstones…in memory of 2 perverts…3 if ya include Lawson…lol

    If you actually read the Blog heading like I did you would see: “The second question – why the obvious biase coverage by the Nation newspaper declaring the headline Visitor: I was saved by CCTV.”


  31. BRITISH NATIONAL James O’Rourke is singing the praise of technology today.

    But he is nowhere near that effusive in his praise of Barbados and its people after a brush with the law and a night in prison.

    “I would never come back to Barbados in my life. You could not pay me £10 million. I have been abused and discriminated. It is disgusting,” he said yesterday.

    O’Rourke, a 44-year-old managing director who was staying at Sandals Royal, in Dover, Christ Church, but who hails from Willenhall, West Midlands, England, was looking back on the events that led to him appearing in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court on Monday and again yesterday.

    He had pleaded guilty to assaulting a woman and resisting Constable Shaquille McClean, all on May 19, and was remanded to HMP Dodds.

    When he returned yesterday, Magistrate Kristie Cuffy-Sargeant reprimanded and discharged him and told him he was free to go.

    This was his first visit to the island and he leaves today.

    O’Rourke later told the NATION his release was due, in no small measure, to the closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage of the incident which occurred in the Sol Top Rock Service Station.

    He said he had been warned about “the local women, whether they were Jamaican that come over here”, that they “trap the white men and try to extort money.

    “And this was the perfect example of what happened. Thank God the technology has proven that I am an innocent man and I was released immediately because that jail was a dangerous place,” he declared.

    “So thank the Lord for the CCTV because . . . I was released immediately.”

    The English businessman said the night of the incident was the first time in seven days he had left the all-inclusive Sandals Royal.

    He added that all he was going for was money and cigarettes.

    The nearest ATM was in that service station.

    O’Rourke said it was to his confusion and dismay that he realised the machine only dispensed Barbadian money.

    By that time he had withdrawn $500.

    It was then, he said, that “one black lady” started harassing him for money.

    “I handed her $50 just to purely leave me alone. I then went to the counter to buy cigarettes and they were still harassing me, asking me for money,” he said.

    O’Rourke noted he paid for his cigarettes and “the motion of my hand, she claimed I slapped her behind”.

    He claimed he was insulted, charged and then tossed into a cell for a number of hours before being released.

    He added he turned up for court not knowing what to expect, but was told to plead guilty because the charges were “misdemeanours”.

    So it was the greatest shock, O’Rourke said, when he was ordered remanded. He described the hours in jail as the worst of his life.

    All this time there was no representative from the British High Commission in court, he lamented.

    He, however, credited attorney Harry Husbands with getting him released after investigating the events of that night.

  32. Posted by Jeff on the other blog in response to a question from Dee Word:

    Can you quote the relevant Act or ideally direct to an electronic link of our penal code if it’s not too much of a disruption to your day.

    De rien, dpi, It is found in section 11 of the Sexual Offences ActCap 154-

    Indecent assault
    11.(1) A person who indecently assaults another is guilty of an offence and
    is liable on conviction on indictment to imprisonment for 5 years.
    (2) A person under the age of 16 years cannot in law give any consent which would prevent an act being an assault for the purposes of this section.
    (3) In this section “indecent assault” means an assault accompanied by words or circumstances indicating an indecent intention.

    Good afternoon to you and yours!


  33. I can guess why the lady filed no complaint!!


  34. I’ll make another guess!!

    There will be another travel advisory against Barbados issued by our major tourism customer, the UK!!

    This will be followed by one from the US and one from Canada!!

    Actually, that is two guesses!!

    The British have a long history in deviant sexual behaviour.

    A police investigation has revealed the former UK prime minister Sir Edward Heath would have been questioned over sex abuse claims if he was alive.

    The late former prime minister Sir Edward Heath — who led a Conservative government between 1970 and 1974, died in 2005, aged 89 — would have been questioned by police over allegations he abused boys as young as 11, police revealed on Thursday, October 4.

    The UK’s pedophilia scandal is even worse than anybody thought
    GlobalPost

    Thursday, July 23, 2015 – 10:45pm

    By Corinne Purtill

    LONDON, UK — In 1986, the head of Britain’s intelligence agency MI5 penned a letter to Margaret Thatcher’s cabinet secretary noting that a serving member of Parliament was sexually abusing children — or, as he put it, displaying a “penchant for small boys.”

    His recommendation was not to have the man arrested, or even ousted from Britain’s government.

    At the time, Sir Antony Duff believed the best course of action was to keep the issue quiet, and do nothing.

    “The risks of political embarrassment to the government is rather greater than the security danger,” he wrote.

    Duff’s letter is among a cache of recently discovered documents relating to an alleged cover-up of sexual abuse by powerful government officials.

    The BLP government is EXTREMELY DIRTY…and SHOULD NOT BE REELECTED.

    how dare they interfere in and CORRUPT THE JUDICIAL PROCESS of this case…who the hell do these corrupt demons think they are…this is a case where a white pervert slapped the backside of a vulnerable black middle aged female…who the hell gave the CORRUPT ASS BLP government permission to cut him loose…the magistrate had all the power and DISCRETION she needed to either hand down a short custodial sentence…or a FINE and restitution to James Pervert’s victim or all three…if a dirty corrupt, black sell out minister or one of their imps and pimps did not interfere in the court process to corrupt it..

    “De rien, dpi, It is found in section 11 of the Sexual Offences ActCap 154- Indecent assault
    11.(1) A person who indecently assaults another is guilty of an offence and

    (3) In this section “indecent assault” means an assault accompanied by words or circumstances indicating an indecent intention.”

    British perverts, pedophiles etc are known all over the WORLD AS RAPISTS…and for centuries …it is well documented and this is what this corrupt government..who after one year in office..and who still has not removed any of the slave laws off the statute books, because both governments collect millions in bribes to keep those laws there, to keep the majority population in bondage to criminal minorities…and continue to foist these racist, rapist demons on the people, rape of the black women and children on the island so they can collect bribes off their own people’s misery and fill their own pockets.

    This corrupt government CANNOT BE REELECTED…and should not even be in the parliament…imagine these are the same rotten, demonic liars and thieves who brought back hanging and treason for black bajans but can’t lock up a white sexual predator, for assaulting a Black lady.


  40. I am going to make a third guess.

    The RBPF will receive instructions to monitor known “ladies” very closely!!

  49. They are those who would pretend that they desire to conduct the discussion at a ‘higher’ level and, will at the same time they will victimize this woman a second and third time.

    I doubt this woman is a keyboard warrior. She like the Stewarts will hear of how the BU dream team demonized her and will hardly recognize herself from what some will want to pass as a higher level of discussion.

    We may not be supported by the brains of BU, we battle a relentless, old and entrenched BU nastiness, but this BU keyboard warrior will point out their hypocrisy, ugliness and nastiness whenever it presents.
