Bieber fought the police and won, what a bad boy! His army of fangirls grows by a factor of 10 and GAF cries

Solid ending
 
Whoa, a crackdown for showing disdain at a Bieibar? I have seen worse things said about people like Sarah Palin. I actually think many of it is in jest. Surely no one really thinks the jabs some thrown at Bieber is really hate. He is only a kid.
 
Wow at the bannings in here. I expected them just from reading the first posts, however. Haha. Why do people have to hate him? I think his music's pretty dumb and uninspired (baby baby baby ohhhhhhhhhhhhh lol) but he's a nice guy and he's never tried to hurt anyone.

I don't think people hate him at all and its more for comic relief. I think the people that jump on them do more to legitimatize the hate for this kid as people have always pounced on what is popular just for affect.
 
If he had cured some horrible disease, or wrote a symphony I don't think anyone would care about his fame. I think it's his relatively fast rise with questionable content/talent that makes people so angry. He is famous for being in the right place, having the right look, and being able to sing good enough. Could have been 100 other dudes but it was him. People get mad.
 
On news just now they said the man who knocked him over was an undercover cops that was scared the crowd was getting rowdy so he rushed to Biebers side. They also said Bieber fought back and his body guards went to work was charged with disorderly conduct. Doesn't add up.
 
This really bothers me. It's not quite as bad as being Nickleback were you get rocks thrown at you on stage but to hate on someone so much that you feel the need to, in any way, cause them grief is childish and pathetic... and why? Because they have done well with themselves using a medium that isn't your style?
 
I don't even like the kid, but those first page comments are just low. That's some Youtube level stuff there. It's like those people who started to threaten Rebecca Black because of her crappy week and a half of fame. Kids make crappy music. They've been doing it since at least the 70s. What else is new?
 
I remember having a similar "hate" for Nsync, the Backstreet Boys, and Hanson that some of you guys have for Bieber. BTW, I was 13-15 at the time, and didn't like them getting the attention from my female classmates.

Don't worry guys, you'll grow out of it!

Holy shit I made this picture back in the day. Didn't think I'd see it getting used here lol

Also why is half of the first page banned?

Edit: regarding the picture I'm surprised to see it still gets people mad when they look at it.

He seems like a nice enough kid. It's somewhat annoying to hear his "music" constantly and see his rictus glinting like a salt mine on every magazine cover, but then I'm leagues away from his target audience. Major dick move for someone to assault him, and a grown adult no less.
 
I'm pretty sure most of the bannings are from Amirox's brilliant bait thread on the gaming side, you just knew reading it that people wouldn't read his full post and/or get the premise before they would start acting out.
