Gable Tostee

We. Kiwis get bored quick with ********.

He'll be fine

I wouldn't take any bets. Utu is strong with lots of families.

He probably figures that if Kim Dotcom can escape justice, so can he.

Except Dotcom's day will come - the NZ gov't is determined to allow his extradition. The other big difference is that Kim is very popular. Putting on 1/2 mio parties for Aucklanders to attend for free will do that for you.

Eric Thomas' name is mud over here. With the deceased being Kiwi, he isn't well regarded by anyone outside of maybe the boofhead bodybuilder community.

The dude is a prick. Not much more

Plenty here aready

Good luck scum.
You simply dont get it, do you? He didn't escape justice, it was served. NOT GUILTY of anything. The recording fully exonerates him, too bad you dont take a listen. You have had a bizarre pathological hatred of this guy from Day 1 because you so readily believe media spin.

I think we have reached the point where changing his opinion even with logic and the obvious isn't an option.

Ironic among all the Kiwis who haven't lived here since they were two being deported at the same time.

I don't know where you're getting your public perception of Eric Thomas, aka Gable Tostee from, but according to everything I hear & see, I'd say strongly negative sentiment runs at about 80:20 against him.

Don't get the first paragraph

I think the majority just realise he is not guilty and don't care.

It's odd you clutch at straws for Lundy but the opposite for the prick Aussie

The problem with that is we have an isolated incident that is subject to intense scrutiny, and it is inevitable there is enough bad spin that it sticks. Don't forget how Lundy was spun out of the ball park, despite being a popular blowhard party animal before being kidnapped by the state.

Cheese Tostee will be fine in a couple of weeks. If that.

...but we aren't judging him on an isolated incident.

We are judging him on how he behaved immediately after that incident. When he didn't call an ambulance because he said "What happened, had happened - there was nothing an ambulance could do." We are judging him on his lack of his genuine remorse during his interview and we are judging him on having the gall to take money for that interview. We are judging him for saying "You're lucky I haven't chucked you off my balcony, you God damn psycho little bitch" minutes before Wright fell to her death. We are judging him for ignoring the 33 times she said "no" and ignoring her begs to go home.

No one is spinning this. Tostee's actions speak for themselves and his words speak for themselves. I'm allowed to make value judgement of him based on his words and actions. And until he actually starts to show genuine remorse and act like someone has actually died I'm gonna think that Tostee is, as one person put it, a "malignant narcissist". A "walking timebomb". A "psychopath."

All irrelevant to his guilt
 
...your reply is irrelevant to what I said.

But hey, maybe you are just having a bad day. Please this time don't take it out on me.
He is a prick

Nothing much more or less.

Doesn't provide any excuse for more than a joke at his expense

...still irrelevant to what I said.

You can't tell me to change my opinions about the man. I've formed them based on his actions and I will judge him based on his words. I'm not sure what else you expect me to do.

I said he is a prick.

Don't get what more worse you expect me to think he is

...I literally have no idea what you are trying to say or why you are bothering to reply to me. This sentence is barely legible. I won't bother responding until you start making some sense.

Your post said he was a narcissistic psycho.

I just agreed

Oh well, I tried.

I think the majority just realise he is not guilty and don't care.

My experience is different, but we probably move in different circles, too.

You're confusing me with someone else, I think.

I have said time and time again I'm quite happy with the verdict. It happened in QLD, and under their laws, he was found not guilty - no problemo.

In Lundy's case, there are no straws being clutched - he just could not have done it. Completely different scenarios and I have no idea why the cases have any kind of comparison; they have nothing in common. In the Eric Thomas case, the verdict showed that no crime was committed. Amber & Christine's hacked-up bodies show that murder was committed.
