Looks like he decided to get himself a real licence back in 2018

The comments under the photos from other truckers are hilarious rofl

Things such as “must have decided to get himself a real licence this time to replace the dodgy one he’s been using since 2009” etc

I don’t think he’s having any sort of a go at you, but he’s saying that Guy Martin’s real life personality is quite obnoxious, and that he doesn’t have any time for people ‘like you’ meaning most people.

He has a ‘real life’ reputation of being obnoxious, irritable, difficult, rude, etc

He was instrumental in numerous things such as getting spectators banned from certain areas at the TT because he didn’t like having to mix and speak to the public.

So I'm led to believe, but where does the traits of an obnoxious c**t end and the traits of Aspergers start ?

Bit blurry eh ?

A few years ago I was taking part in a 24hr cycle race, this was primarily for kids and with school and scouts teams taking part.

Guy was there with his mate as "guest stars" although it was supposed to be low key to keep the press away, they turned up late which was an upset for a lot of kids who idolised him, it became worse when Guy just ignored them all, they wanted to talk to him and get his signature but he just blanked them all. At the time my impression of him was that he was an egotistical git, in light of what has been reported about him, maybe he can't help it.

I think regarding both the cases you mention, we can (generally) agree that the people involved actually committed the acts they were accused of.

With that in mind, I’m wondering why you don’t think either of them should be punished?

Edited to add: I’m going to guess wildly that you have a child or relative with Aspergers and therefore don’t think anyone with Aspergers should be held criminally accountable for their actions.

I'm of the opinion that someone with money to spare wouldn't have a problem in taking many HGV driving lessons and tests until getting it right, hence mistakes and or misunderstandings have surely played a big part along the way

As for someone hacking into the Pentagon and leaving this message "Your security is crap", speaks for itself
I don’t buy Guy Martin’s story that he ‘sort of thinks’ he passed a HGV driving test at some point in Ireland but can’t remember anything about it.

But, let’s just focus on the Gary McKinnon case then.

You analogy suggests that if your house gets burgled because you have anything less than the worlds best lock, then it’s your own fault and the burglars have done nothing wrong.

I think we can all agree that is quite bizarre logic, and also victim blaming.

Gary McKinnon knew fine well that what he was doing was incredibly serious and carried huge penalties, but carried on doing it for months, despite being ‘almost caught’ a couple of times.

I have no idea you are defending him.
I'm not defending him

Anyone that thinks they can hack into the Pentagon, leave a message and get away with it must surely need help rather than prison

Maybe help while in prison would be better ?

“It’s only the internet so not a real crime” is no excuse.

You could apply that logic to any crime.

People commit serious crimes every day thinking they will get away with it. Drink driving, murder, stabbing, rape, burglary, fraud.

Some murderers and burglars leave messages at the scene of their crimes as well.

Maybe they just need help rather than prison.

Sure, so we need to be protected from these people who do stuff.
