Britons on holiday: World Strikes Back

Woman 'torched Briton's genitals'

A Greek woman accused of setting fire to the genitals of a British tourist in Crete is due to appear in court.
The woman admitted assault after dousing the man's private parts in alcohol and igniting them, but says she did so after being sexually harassed.
Police on the Greek island say the tourist was drunk and had waved his genitals at several girls before allegedly groping the suspect.
The man suffered second degree burns and is recovering in a private clinic.

...

The case has been widely discussed on Greek television, and there has been precious little sympathy for the young Briton, said our correspondent.
He added that many Greeks are sickened by British bad behaviour in Malia and other resorts.

Setting a person's genitals on fire is not a solution to the problem.

I hope she gets 10 years.

Same goes for killing him or cutting off his genitals. Would you have been happy with that too?

Like I said, violence isn't the solution in this situation.

Had it been your girlfriend/wife/daughter how would you have dealt with the prick?

Probably would've just removed my family from the situation. If he was 'in my face' then I probably would have kicked his ass and then taken the judicial punishment dealt out to me like a man.
Assault is assault, no matter the provocation.

I still wouldn't have permanently disfigured him, though.


I see from your response that you would then have be ed' even further.

Right back atcha: What if that had been your drunk dad/brother/buddy?

Does castration sound too severe?

No sympathy on my part to anyone in that situation, being drunk is no excuse.

Had she brought out a personal alarm, sounded it in his ear and caused him permanent deafness should she be charged or is she just defending herself?

Blame here, seems entirely based on conjecture.
