    Barbaric treatment of a human being over some drugs.

    But also hilarious apparently.


    how is he being treated barbarically? He is not being stopped from going to the toilet. He is doing it by choice.

    I'd normally agree with you there but its Heroin and Crack he's supposed to have swallowed so my sympathy towards him is limited
    What does it matter whether it's hash or heroin? The point still stands about it being a barbaric way to behave for the supposed civic minded members of society.

    Having two people beside him at all times waiting to watch him evacuate himself is inhumane treatment for anyone. However, when the anyone is a prisoner, suddenly it's hilarious. Amazing how quickly people's sense of humanity diminishes.

    But it's OK for him if the charges are true to smuggle drugs that will ruin lives, kill people, escalate gangland crime?
    If he chose to hide this evidence internally then all bets are off.

    You would prefer they let him flush the evidence away?

    There doesn't seem to be any update on this online for a few days.

    It was his choice. Had he behaved himself he wouldn't be in the fix he's in.

    You've never had a serious MS relapse, have you?

    It's a preferable outcome than the one described in the article.

    It's not ok to smuggle drugs etc. Equally it's not ok to behave in such a way as described in the article i.e. standing guard beside the guy 24/7 without giving him privacy to evacuate himself. How anyone thinks that is an acceptable, never mind hilarious, response to smuggling some drugs, shows how society has got its priorities screwed up just as much as any drug smuggler.

    Ah, of course, prisoners have no rights. They give up any rights once they choose to break the law. Thanks for the reminder.

    Not yet.

    it is still his choice. Embarrassment or doing serious internal damage. I know which choice i would take.

    The point is, a person, regardless of whether they are a prisoner, should not be put in a position whereby that is a choice they are faced with.

    And because of some drugs? Please.

    Obviously you see no problem with heroin or crack or the lives they ruin.

    Neither said that, nor insinuated it. But carry on believing the ends justifies the means, and that violations of human rights are a matter of hilarity.

    See how many laxatives they can hold? :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 554 ✭✭✭mark_jmc


    37 days, Christ!
    I remember going through chemo I didn’t s*** for around 12 days and I thought I would explode and that was while eating next to nothing.
    Spoiler alert- it all came to an end on what I fondly remember as “Super Sunday”

    My record is 5 days while in a foreign country.
    The local laxatives didn't work and I looked about 4 months pregnant!

    Pity this chap wasn't a mathematician.

    He could work it out with a pencil...

    Reminds me of this Australian film I watched, 'The Mule'.
    It was actually a really good film.

    They should give him privacy for him to have a crap and re-hide/dispose of the evidence?

    Am I the only one who sees the irony of the suspects name?

    Yes.
    He surrendered his rights when he got into that drug ****. No pun intended.

    Would make great TV - a novel twist on BBC's boring Springwatch, where they stick cameras around his cell instead of a dull little bird's nest.

    Could call it ****watch. That same Chris Packham chap could still present it of course, along with various experts and celebrity commentators.

    That'll be one hell of a massive shiite when he finally goes. His hole will be in bits after it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,789 ✭✭✭✭BattleCorp


    Ah, he has to have had a sh1t by now.

    I'd be ready to burst by the second day without having a crap.

    After 47 days, he's been released as the evidence has not been dropped!!

    According to reports, the longest an inmate has gone without using the toilet is 23 days, so Chambers has broken the British record by some distance.
