Guardsman Attacks P** Taking Tourist in London Today
How funny is this. The Guardsman should have ripped his throat out.

The more I watch it the more I feel that the girl holding the camera should have got a slap as well.

Reminds me of my somewhat dubious moment of glory leading a 4 flight parade through Ipswich some years ago on the occasion of the Freedom parade. After marching past the dais, with a copper on a motorbike keeping the way clear ahead, some tosseur on a pushbike decided to make some sort of 'peace protest' by riding across my bows holding up a 'peace salute'....
"F*ck off right now, or this sword goes right up your ar$e", quoth I, somewhat sutto voce.
"And I won't see anything", said the copper.
So f*ck off he did!
Free beer in the RAFA afterwards as a result....

Well done, that man! Let's hope his CO will treat it like we all know Harry's CO will his error.
Since 1997 our wonderful government has every four days (on average) enacted a law under which you can be imprisoned. Whatever happened to the one where p*ss-taking chavs like that one can be locked up for disrespecting the Armed Services? It might also straighten out one or two in Peterborough.

Something about this screams ' fake set-up ' to me;
on the other hand, if it is genuine, I agree the guardsman deserves a pretend rollocking then beers all round.
I'm sure any fine could be covered by a whip-round, hopefully sense will prevail but knowing how officialdom treats real people...

It is in the region of St James's Palace, possibly outside Clarence House?
The Colombian tourist is also quoted as being an undergraduate at Oxford!
I've little doubt the Guardsman will be disciplined, possibly get an extra guard or two.

I have no problem with people who are sinceire in their beliefs - Like Bill_Hicks_rules for example on the Future Carrier Thread. I would never even consider trying to argue with the chaps opinion but why not take it to a more appropriate forum, or even petition number 10?
Please exuse the Mong spelling - its bee a long day

Posts #2 and #5 I totally agree.
Seeing that vid and the disrespect shown to a member of the armed forces really makes my blood boil. I wish I was there to sort the little sh!t out.

If this is genuine, then I'm afraid I think the Guardsman was wrong. Of course I understand his frustrations but it's still wrong. What he did undermines our armed forces.
Being provoked is something military people are trained to deal with aren't they? You're supposed to follow orders and not be deviated by idiots like that student. If you didn't the whole military ethos would collapse.
Furthermore, now this is in the public domain, surely only more idiots, and I include some media elements here, are likely to make additional attempts to undermine our services.

I think it's a shame that he got to the end of his tether. A much more pleasant outcome would have been if a member of the public (or an out-of-uniform member of the forces?) walked up to the idiot and smacked him instead.

Fadi to..: every one has their limit and he was pushed too far.About time we regained some respect in this country - by bayonet if necessary.
Agreed with the other comment though - as a passing civvy, it would have been a simple process to quickly and efficiently dislocate his patella. It would also be fun to hear that annoying whine on YouTube turn to a shriek as he tried to march up and down pulling one helpless leg behind him.
I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
The guardsman was one of a pair guarding a gate.
He marches up and down to relieve the tension of standing still.
As he turned about he noticed that the potential intruder was between him and the gate he was guarding. He showed considerable restraint in using a free hand rather than rifle butt or bayonnet in preventing the person from intruding into the place he was detailed to guard.
I submit, your honour, that the guardsman was merely executing his duty, with remarkable constraint, as ordered. There is, therefore, no case to answer.
