Then he should keep it HIS business. It's like having a neighbour who wants to have band practice in their house. You complain and you get told to mind your own business and don't me what to do in my house blah blah. Well... that person isn't interested in minding one's own business or peace and privacy in one's own house. If he were he'd be concerned that I don't have to listen to his band whilst I'm in my house.
Bob, your expectations of what is proper behaviour on a bus is totally irrelevant to what this kid was doing. He obviously has a completely different perspective to yours. Who is right here? There is no right and wrong. He wasn't doing anybody harm, the only thing that happened was that he offended your sensibilities, which are arbitrary and pre-programmed in the first place.
In a way it would be fun to keep arguing this one. BUT I think I've made the broad strokes of my position clear, so we'll have to save this debate for another forum or time.
I've typed up a whole lot of stuff and then decided not to post it - there are fights I don't need to initiate on GFSA.
I always remember something that Bill Clinton said: The worst reason for doing something is just because you can.
