The next step will be, does the DJ really have to play that song knowingly hurting her? Does he have to be an asshole? It's this culture of asshole-ism that gets us to playing songs that knowingly trigger members of the audience. Since he knew about it, why can't he accommodate her? He didn't have any more songs? DOWN WITH PATRIARCHY RAWR

No, Quaid, the issue is that the DJ wasn't sensitive enough to her feelings, he shouldn't have lashed out, he should have just ignored it. Being insensitive to her feelings is the worst crime imaginable. He thought-raped her just by calling her out.
I'm sure Tanoomba would have responded in a far more civilized manner. Perhaps he would have gone into the bacthroom of the club and articulated his response in a 500 word novella on a stall door. That way, those interested could engage him only if they chose to.

I've kicked people out of bars and clubs for a lot less than invading a DJ's personal space. The owner has every right to defend his staff from undue criticism. If she had a problem, she should have gone to the management. He is not in the wrong. End of story.

Jesus, Soy, you're acting as though sending a text message explaining why a song about rape bothered a rape victim was a personal affront to everyone in the club. Was there anything in the article that implied anybody but the DJ even saw the text message? Chill the fuck out.
I'm completely chill. Her sending the text isn't that big of a deal. It's retarded and I can't imagine how any normal, responsible adult would ever do it, but it's not that big of a deal. Her having an article written about it is on a whole 'notha level, though. So a DJ at a club was mean. Ok.

Uhhh if a patron at a bar/club I managed somehow obtained the personal phone number of one of my staff, then used that information to cause them stress while they were working, she not only would have been removed, she would have been banned permanently.

You engage my staff on their terms, not on yours. That response email from the management team was a joke.

I don't think she 'texted' him. She wrote the text on her phone and then held it up for him to read.

Are you retarded? "...articulated his response in a 500 word novella on a stall door"? You already know what my response would have been, you jerk: I would have ignored the easily-ignorable text message.

And sorry, regardless of whether he was taking a stance for freedom of speech or lashing out because his work was being criticized, saying "Fuck off, you silly bitch" over a microphone is a shitty, shitty way to respond. He most definitely WAS in the wrong acting that way, even if he had reason to be offended. End of story.

Yeah, hopefully they send that DJ to customer service sensitivity training.

Let me lay this out for you since you seem to be having trouble:

You = DJ
Club = rerolled
Bathroom = Rickshaw
Stall door = Tanoomba thread

He wasn't in the wrong. She was. She should have gone to management to deal with the issue, not harass working employees. He responded under stress because she put him under stress. This is not complicated.

Anyone notice how Tanoomba's solution to every problem/conflict is "just ignore it lol"? Well, unless your problem is you're an SJW and you've been offended. Then you should articulate it and expect everyone else to ignore it or they're the asshole.

His response was ABSOLUTELY in the wrong. That is true regardless of whether or not the offended party chose the best course of action in communicating her problem. You seem to be under the impression that, by necessity, one of them has to be wrong and the other has to be right. That's not how things work, Quaid. The only reason I started talking about this article is because several people in the GG thread claimed the DJ's response was not only appropriate but the best possible response, one that merits celebration. That's bullshit. He acted like a grade A asshole and his stupid, immature response now became "news" that will further reinforce the divide between 2 sides looking for any excuse to act like entitled children.

Every problem? No. Made-up non-problems? Abso-fucking-lutely.

Tanoomba's stance on the girl: "I am not saying that the girl in question is completely in the right"

Tanoomba's stance on the DJ: "His response was ABSOLUTELY in the wrong"

So she is only maybe, sort of, partially wrong, but the DJ is 100% wrong in his response. Wakandan please. Girl is 100% wrong and DJ was 100% hilarious.

She expressed her feelings to him, and he expressed his back to her. I'd call it a fair exchange.

She showed him a text explaining why she, a rape victim, didn't want to hear a song that trivializes rape. Was that the right way to express her concerns? Probably not. Like Quaid said, she should have taken it to management or something if it really bothered her. Instead, she got into the DJ's personal space while he was working and made him uncomfortable by criticizing his work, and that was wrong. Really, the best way she could have acted would have been to understand that life includes being exposed to things that make you uncomfortable, and that not everybody is going to go out of their way to protect your feelings. Happy?

Having said that, yelling "Fuck off you silly bitch" into a microphone is not the right response. He could have nodded his head and continued working as though nothing had happened. He could have shooed her away with a wave of his hand. He could have signaled a bouncer to remove her from his vicinity if he was really that bothered. Instead, he chose to act like a child and SJWs everywhere are going to have a field day, especially since the anti-SJWs are acting like he's some kind of hero for being a prick. Tensions increase, the fight continues for fighting's sake, and absolutely no progress is made toward any kind of resolution to the SJW/Anti-SJW battle of the retards.

His response was negative and emotional because he was put under stress by someone acting outside reasonable behaviour. A reasonable response from the girl would have been to complain of the music selection to the management. She chose to make it a personal issue by engaging him directly. She behaved inappropriately, and how he chose to respond in the face of this behaviour is entirely irrelevant.

She is most definitely in the wrong in how she chose to respond to her being triggered.
