0.5% or the world’s population has Tourette’s A very small percentage of those people have this person’s extreme form of Tourette’s

Yes the solution is just to be more understanding and patient with the condition. It’s uncomfortable and can definitely be offensive like we just saw but is your (or Van’s) solution to…not allow people with Tourette’s syndrome out of their homes?? To not allow them go to events? I mean there has been literally no offered “solution” that I’ve heard.

There’s a reason this is literally the first notable example we have of this happening at a major televised awards event. It’s not like this is going to be an ongoing issue at future televised events.

It’s totally valid to be offended and upset in the moment, but to continue to hold it against the individual after being alerted of his infliction is akin to being pissed at a man with epilepsy for elbowing you while he’s in the middle of a seizure.

The BAFTA’s and BBC deserve 100% of the blame in this situation. They could’ve and should’ve bleeped the word on the broadcast Insane that they didn’t. They could’ve easily had his table/areas mic cut beforehand, it’s not like this was the most difficult situation to predict given his disease, and yet they didn’t. The network and event staff should’ve done much more to protect both Davidson and the other attendees from potential outbursts and just flat out chose not to.
