It is pathetic that you find it amusing to laugh at someone with such a horrendous genetic condition. I am sure your parents are proud.

I don't find him funny, but I do find him fascinating. This was a front page video at you tube when I went there today - Youtube suggested that I watch it, and I have suggested that you watch it. Especially as there was some discussion about him on this board yesterday. You shouldn’t immediately assume that I'm laughing AT him. Having said that, there's plenty of comedy value in anyone who films themselves dancing to "pretty fly for a white guy" and posting it on youtube without a shred of irony. He’s got big brass balls – I’ll give him that much.

It is just that a load of his videos have been posted on here the last couple of days with people laughing at him which I find rather reprehensible, particularly coupled with the comments posted to his channel by 4chan twatnuggets telling him to go kill himself and such.
I just think that there are better ways of learning about Progeria and it's victims than laughing at a kid who is just trying to lead an average life despite his condition.

a billion views by 4chan cunts mayhaps? i am a complete arsehole a lot of the time, but i would never take the piss out of someone that obviously doesn't need the piss being taken out of them. if it is on the frontpage for any other reason then i would be amazingly amazed...

i'd viewed some videos about this guy yesterday, based upon links posted on b3ta. Youtube was simply suggesting videos similar to those in my youtube viewing history. Shortly after the b3ta links went up, his account was closed. I thought it interesting that today he was back under a new name, although I agree its more likely that some other cnut has posted them for him.

Seems that its ok to post 9/11 piss takes and jokes about the Soham murders but this video causes an upset?

entirely for personal amusement on someone who's very much alive and on the receiving end of it.
See my list below.
b3ta is just a bit near to the knuckle, by no means a free for all.

He posted the Youtube video, because he wants us to look at him. To simply look the other way is to say "I can't handle your disability"...which in turn is simply drawing attention to his disability.

You can notice people without calling them defects and posting their real address, phone number, etc. online.
It's the equivilant of seeing someone in the street and spitting in their eye, 'cos at least you noticed them!

and maybe in his own way wanted to show that having progeria doesn't mean you can't lead a normal life, but I am sure he didn't post the videos wanting to be pilloried, bullied and ridiculed.

Please don't take this as a personal attack, just amazes me that b3ta users don't seem to bat an eyelid at things about child abuse, cancer or major disasters, yet this has caused a stir.
I think even if he wasn't suffering from this disease this video would still get grief. Lets face it, the whole gangsta crap makes him look like a right cock.

I took offence to some woman tweeting about the Air France plane being abducted by aliens ...
Think I should probably join The Daily Mail site instead...
