Gay men told to stop kissing on bus

Being a bus driver is very tough these day what with overcrowding, traffic and rude passengers.So if you were a bus driver and there were other passengers on board and then you suddenly spot 2 gay men having a long lingering kiss. What would you do as a capacity of bus driver.Well if i had been a passenger on that bus, i certainly wouldnt want to see it so why do they all go complaining to the newspapers. Sometimes i think it is deliberately done to make headllines in the papers.So if two men were snogging outside your window, what would you do?

It would remind me to give the other half a long lingering snog when I saw him instead of the usual moans about miserable sods on public transport

Well don't do it on a bus Marion or some sod'll throw you off.

It makes me happy to see people having a good time.  I could do with a long lingering kiss!

Good point well made.I'm still waiting for Alesha to respond and defend her position.

If I were a passenger on that bus I'd be more concerned that the driver wasn't paying more attention to where he was driving.

Bob Little ● 4179d

Can`t wait for a response from Alesha! If you`re reading this I`d love you to back up your opinion....

"So if two men were snogging outside your window, what would you do?"As long as they weren't recceing my window with intent, they may do as they please as long as it doesn't harm others. Its a free world imo Alesha.

Someone's sexuality is no concern of anyone except them.I just like seeing people in love, so much nicer than the alternative.

Nigel Brooks ● 4180d

Thank you to of the posters on this topic, except the first poster. Lovely comments.

I think this is the story the original poster was referring to:http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/oct/20/gay-couple-thrown-off-london-bus-kissingOh, and I wouldn't give a s**t if I saw it - nowt wrong with a kiss!

Also I don`t understand how you alleviate traffic congestion by kicking homosexuals off public transport??? Unless I`m missing something...?

Tom Clifford ● 4181d

"Oi you!  Stop kissing your husband!"

Andy Vaughan ● 4181d

Apparantely not everyone got that memo....

Tom Clifford ● 4181d

Just looked outside and checked the date.AFAIK this is England and it's October 2014.Not Uganda or some other backward nation where homosexuality is illegal and certainly not the dark ages!

Nigel Brooks ● 4181d

Alesha, are you actually Asha Synghal?

Penny Crocker ● 4181d

I think Alesha may be a troll

Penny Crocker ● 4181d

Is this a serious post - you absolute idiot!!

Bud Richards ● 4181d

would you object to a man and a woman having a 'long lingering' kiss within reach of your sight?

Andy Vaughan ● 4181d

I'd do absolutely nothing. It wouldn't offend me in the least. I've seen far worse behaviour than a 'long lingering kiss' between heterosexual couples, and have never seen *them* being thrown off a bus...

Ann Haddleton ● 4181d

I would do nothing. Would you like to tell me the the problems is?
