[Mamyalynne]

Well done to the Police team.

Don't care what religion he is, guy needs to serve every second of his sentence and live the rest of his life in fear.

[Fitzer]

I definitely see a pattern https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/music/2013/nov/26/lostprophets-singer-ian-watkins-admit-offences-attempted-rape-baby

As TTT well knows, paedophilia is not restricted to some members of the Moslem faith, indeed it has been shown to be present amongst Catholic priests for example. Other faiths and non-faiths have their offenders also. So there is no elephant.

[ToraToraTora]

Canary, why are you bringing religion into this?

[Togo]

Have you tried getting a little background info on this beast? Nothing stumm ... no info on how long he has been in the Country, no family statements(he's a lovely lad, who lovers his mam, etc.) No previous convictions or work history. Just a blanket over his "background". Makes you think doesn't it. Well some of us anyway. Some "offenders" are in the "news" 24/7 for what turns out to be much less.

[Mozz71]

Oh, come on Tora, we all know what you meant by the "Elephant in the room"

[Togo]

^^Eee knows ya know. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

He should be castrated in the public’s interest and safety. These creatures roam amongst us waiting to strike. We should eliminate this potential beasts ability.

From what I know from reading the cultural influences of Islam, there is indeed an elephant in the room, and the authorities are shirt scared of confronting it, to their shame, and our insecurity.

TTT 20:26.
Please don't pretend that you don't understand your own post.
I know you're not completely thick, but you are a little bit insensitive.

Mozz - // Oh, come on Tora, we all know what you meant by the "Elephant in the room" //

I don't.

TTT - care to explain the point of your OP please?

The Christian faith is far from spotless in this area - you have no moral high ground here to pontificate from whatsoever.

[Theland]

The Christian faith is indeed spotless.
Those who claim Christianity in name only must be on your mind.

[Cloverjo]

I don’t know about an elephant in the room.
I couldn’t bear to read past the first paragraph.

No more than those who claim Islam in name only are on yours - probably a large degree less, I don't spend my days fretting about nonsense.

TTT being coy - and touch-me-not ! I'm a lady
well there is a first for everything
