Yes, let's arrest the guy who threw candy!
Troll or not argument aside, it's still bullshit.
I don't like alot of musicians (him included), politicians, news reporters, people on TL, whatever. I would -never- consider doing physical harm or anything similar to them just because I don't like them, or disagree with them. Hope they get a hold of whoever threw that shit. Arrest em, fine em, whatever. They deserve something other than nothing.
That said, haters gonna hate and hopefully it doesn't deter him from doing what he wants.

Hell the guy playing down at my local bar probably fared worse. I've got nothing against beiber, to each their own, and obviously he didn't deserve it. However to for a fraction of the second to consider this national news worthy is nothing short of horrendous. But that's my opinion at the least...
Oh I agree 100%. So much BS gets covered on national media it's ridiculous.
Alright, agreed this person deserves some punishment. But getting arrested is pretty extreme for throwing a bag of candy at someone. I just think it's stupid to get all fumed about a bag of candy. It's not a rock. If it was a rock, then yeah, arrest him. But it's not a rock. it's a bag of candy.
So was it a water bottle or a t-shirt full of candy? It didn't look like a water bottle from the video.
I didn't find it funny beyond "celebrity getting hit in the head by something." Regardless of who it is, throwing a bottle at someone is a shitty thing to do and deserves punishment.

I dunno if this is sarcastic or not but imo it's perfectly true. I didn't laugh at this video at all and I think all of Bieber's antifans are misguided.
I don't really have an opinion on how the law should handle the perpetrator but I guess charging with assault is appropriate. There ought to be some kind of repercussion.
I was being serious ;;. I don't think I made any hints as to me being sarcastic >.<...
I think it's just the assumption that most people on the internet posting in sincerity aren't. Heh.
Yes, it was a bag of candy. Big deal. It's not necessarily WHAT he got hit with that matters, it's the concept.
eh screw him. Him giving 32,000 is like me giving a few cents, not only that but he still made money off the show, he is profiting off doing a promotion concert for flood victims(I didn't look it up, but we all know those tickets cost more then 1.06) Actually in effect he didn't give anything to the flood victims, he just made other people give money.
Plus he is really annoying and it wasn't a brick. I would say this is harassment not assault, but yes I agree with OP that its dumb to buy a ticket to throw shit at him. I don't like him, but I'm not about to waste my time and money, as well as make my ears bleed to go throw something at him at a concert.

Yes. Let's not help people in need of funds after a flood destroys their home. Way to think that one through.
Look, I get it. Everyone hates Justin Bieber. Why? Probably because he's famous and he's everywhere.
No, that's not why I hate him. I hate him cause his music is total corporate trash. Complete garbage, half of which is autotuned, that any competent studio can write and fart out in a week. It's really reflective of the state of the whole industry now. That's why I hate him. Wtf happened to musical skill? When bands required technical skill and creativity, not just a catchy beat, drum loop. and then have everything else done on a computer. I swear you could combine all of the talent in popular music today and it wouldn't even amount to a fraction of the talent bands like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin had.

he's not first artist to get hit by rubbish get over it
This isn't about Justin Bieber, he just got hit with candy. This is about people. Is it okay to throw shit at people you do not like? I find it scary that so many people seem to think that it is. Maybe that's naive.

Kids like what sounds good to them, they could care less about the process. I'm not a fan of Biebers music, but that doesn't mean I hate the kid and hope he gets pelted with objects at his concerts. Also Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd's music bores the shit out of me, I could care less about how much talent they had.

You are stuck in some romantic land of the 70s . You cite two of the most successful rock bands of all time and say "whatever happeneeeed" ? There is WAY more expression and creativity going on these days, but it's people like you who just have a hard on for a era when they were just a twinkle in their father's eye who stunt the growth.
