FHRITP: Reporter confronts men who bombarded her with vulgarity

Published on May 11, 2015

Watch as CityNews reporter Shauna Hunt confronts men who bombarded her with vulgarity at Sunday's TFC game.

See the full FHRITP story here:

Got the name of this fine outstanding young man and his merry pranksters from a post by Texas Towelie:

The details of the bleeped out compliments are posted at DU somewhere. Everytime I see these stories, I think:

'Look, girls, your dates have arrived! Y'all just smile real pretty now, hey?'

P. S. This is a HOF post.

He will, of course, blame the reporter instead of himself and his buddies for the rest of his life.

The comments are disgusting and I'm certain that if his mother did see the video then she would be ashamed, not laughing.

7. We don't know. The blissfully entitled see nothing wrong with abusing a working woman. After all...

She should be at home like Ann Romney, as far as they're concerned.

Like ISIS, any woman in public is either a prostitute or soon will be if they get their hands on her.

6. The main protagonist got fired. I think he was an engineer? Can't find the link, though.

10. I beg to differ. They don't exhibit any feelings. Just reacting like dogs with a female in Estrus.

These guys aren't exhibiting any frontal lobe* functioning, and can be very dangerous as group if they think the public can't see what they do to a solitary woman. And I think you know where I am going with this.

*The frontal lobes serve as an “executive” part of the cortex. They participate in higher order functions that include reasoning and abstraction; planning and initiating of activity; monitoring and shaping of behavior to ensure adaptive actions; inhibiting maladaptive behavior; prioritizing and sequencing actions; problem solving; and coordinating elementary motor and sensory functions into a coherent and goal-directed stream of behavior.

In my limited, but very upclose experience of challenging mental and developmental behaviors, the giggling response has appearing to act as a neural malfunction and a pre-cursor to their most violent behavior.

Of course, most people are not anti-social or dangerous when hit with a fit of giggles. But some do and it is very disturbing to watch. They lose all inhibition and do things out of character that they don't remember.

As for this pack of laughing hyenas, this was what media taught them. The words used are more than a little pornographic and they were eager to tear her down and degrade her, proud of what they were doing and had no intention of stopping despite her protests and question. In their opinion, she was there to be abused by them, nothing more. She was a sex doll.

Imagine a wild animal, sniffing at your flesh, sizing you up for the kill. Just the way these guys did with her. The threat is just below the surface.

They were taught that predatory acts are just fun and cool. I've seen this kind of gleeful behavior in humans killing animals, and animals killing each other.

I don't see much difference here.

12. They have a veneer of civilization

And they know how to pick their prey, but there are subcultures out there that would put up with zero of this shit. I came from one. It's unfortunate that these subcultures are kind of reactionary/predatory and not particularly healthy to stay in, so I have to agree with you.

One can dream, however
