The Rochdale Groomers - evidence of hypocrasy

[sp1814]

I read about this story yesterday, but left it until today to ask this question, because I wanted to see if those who so rightly condemned the Rochdale Muslims would post questions about this story:

http://www.mirror.co....-14-and-pimped-845801

But nothing...nada...silence. The story is covered in the Daily Mail, The Sun and the Manchester Evening News, so it's difficult to miss.

So I ask - why isn't the News section alight with righteous condemnation? Yes, the woman has not been found guilty, but that didn't stop the flood of 'questions' relating to Rochdale...

No response so far. I know why.

[rojash]

well, I think it's pretty obvious why AOG didn't post about it :-)

sp IMPACT..........IMPACT.

Two illegal (Illegal)immigrants,. Muslim, grooms girls for sex and prostitution......worth a few posts..........

Woman, grooms girl for sex...........no big deal in UK today,minimal impact and not really a story.

So am I rojash, he has not posted for several days - do not jump to conclusions.

I dont really get the point of your post. Are you simply looking to provke trouble?

[jake-the-peg]

I'll bet this one will provoke damning condemnation too

The point of this post is that people with an axe to grind pick and choose the topics presenting an unbalanced view of the problems facing this country to suit their own prejudices

[Baldric]

I notice it took place in a Ford Transit Connect is that in any way relevant?

[flip_flop]

I am alight with righteous condemnation about the stories in both links.

Actually, that's probably not quite true - I think the crimes are evil (if the one in the first link is proven), just as much as the crimes in the Rochdale case were evil, and I really couldn't give a tinker's cuss about about the colour of the people perpetrating the crimes.

But that said, it was suggested in the Rochdale threads that the crimes were purely about sex - and I don't think that was the case. Sure sex was a factor, but I also think the colour of the victims was a factor and the two can't be separated.

"The point of this post is that people with an axe to grind pick and choose the topics presenting an unbalanced view of the problems facing this country to suit their own prejudices "

got any proof, care to name them and these so called prejudices and axes to grind ? I'd like to know

For the same reason that one rape, one paedophile offence (I mean true paedophile), one internet grooming or one burglary isn't big news, but a conspiracy set up to commit many such offences and which succeeds with several, is.

And the Rochdale case was marked by having a distinct cultural element, which made it odd. The crime itself was unusual anyway. You get cases of gangs treating women who are known to them as sex objects, but it's unusual, or unique, to find a group of men picking up strangers and abusing or raping them as part of a continuing plan.

[sp1814]

Couple of points. First of all - there should have been a question mark after 'Evidence of Hypocrasy.

And secondly, I acknowledge the incorrect spelling of 'Hypocrisy'.

Good points...but could you not also argue that a woman selling a 14 year old girl for sex is fairly unique in itself?

[emmie]

I did not see this story in todays Mail, not sure how it would have slipped my notice i must say.

[FredPuli43]

It is an unusual crime, Eddie, in that the girl was, in fact, only used by the one man, and procured uniquely. That makes it odd and newsworthy.It's not a woman pimping more than one girl. A woman pimp , or procurer, is failrly unusual in itself.

^^ Typo. Eddie? I mean sp1814, obviously!

'The youngster graphically described her ordeal...'
'I must have conked out...'

Maybe there wasn't enough colour in the story for a number of the usual suspects?
