Are The West In The Grip Of The Woke...

what do others think ?
It really makes my blood boil to read yet another "millionaire" is funding the McCanns! Why are they so special in terms of being parents of missing children? What about all the other missing children? Why do they deserve everyones pity when others are long forgotten? What about the �1m in the Madeleine fund that they "wont" or "cant" use? Is that in a high interest rate account somewhere earning lots of interest to be creamed off?They both have jobs Why don't they go back to work and earn some money like all the others
have to? It's never about Madeleine - its always all about THEM! OK Rant over - just wondered what others thought!

Hi Dassie,
It's probably media speculation...... no body, no proof. And of course the other 2 babies wouldn't have been tested at that time for sedatives/calpol....
Mata has wondered why they don't go back to work?
If K. Mcann was my gp? I would choose not to see her.
She left her children alone. I find if she can make a decision like that over something so precious, then I would question her doctoring ability.

I, for one, will be grateful for a resolution to this tragic story.
If for no other reason than to spare us the sanctimony of a surprisingly large and voluble number of ABers.
I'm not sufficiently certain that I would have left my child/ren in the evenings as Kate and Gerry are supposed to have done........however, we have only the stories being drip-fed from an increasingly beleaguered Portugese police force via a salivating scoop-hungry international press from which to infer this......to pass judgement on their actions on the days leading up to and including 3rd May.
But, by God ! what a lesson hard learnt........!
Is it really the general assumption that they now deserve everything they are getting ? Are we so hardened that we can't find a little humanity to try and feel a little of what they are feeling ? Are we so jealous of their reasonably comfortable living standards that we reserve our sympathy for less high-acheivers ?
Have the 'grumps' lost sight of the fact that (hopefully) there is a little girl out there, albeit one who is scared to death, missing her Mummy, Daddy, brother and sisters, gandparents and her beloved cuddle cat.............
She is, or should be, the focus of our efforts and I suspect that Kate and Gerry are willing to sacrifice themselves on the altar of 'Bad Publicity' rather than have the story slip away to pages 4 and 5 of our newspapers and then becoming Madeline Who ?
I really don't think that the ills of society can be laid at their door and throwing 'other lost children' or the ubiquitous 'children needing operations' soundbites actually brings anything to this particular story.
Perhaps the monied benefactors are sufficiently sure of the McCanns innoncence, dismayed at the shabby treatment of them both by the Portuguese authorities and DO possess the milk of human kindness (so conspicuous by its absence from this type of posting) to offer all the assistance they can.

There is no supposedly about them leaving those children alone. That is fact.
And yes, they will be vilified.
That darling beautiful child is gone. It is their fault. I just hope the child is dead. Because if she isn't? and she is now being severely abused???
It does not bare thinking about does it?
Who is really/ has really learnt the lesson the hard way?
Madeleine.

I think doctors are very unlikely to sedate their kids. They know the dangers of overdosing and the correct dosage so how could they possibly have killed her in this way. Also there are reports ( although i don't believe them) of Madeleine crying. Well she wouldn't have been crying if she were sedated.
I cannot even contemplate what it is like to lose a child. They deserve all the help they can get.

I know its not exactly the same thing but my daughter had her child snatched from her my his grandmother while she was ill in hospital. Since then my daughter has had to work all the hours god sends and more to pay for his up keep and still the woman makes it difficult for her to see her own son.
My daughter has to work to pay a solicitor as she earns jsut enough not to qualify for help but hardly enough to hire a solicitor.
I know hes isn't missing but I wish so much that some one would be as generous towards my girl in her hour of need.
It wasn't her fault her son is nearly 250 miles aways from her and shes fighting a woman who effectively stole him.
No one wants to help her and yes I agree with the Mata hati.
What makes them so special?

Oh Dear!! What a discussion!
I myself wasnt pointing the finger of guilt or innocence - just asking "why them"?
But I still stand by with what I said - it's become all about them, not Madeleine. Wouldnt it be normal to be personally pleading to the public for help, not standing by dry eyed and stony faced, as the spin doctor reads out the latest !
I am sure the eyes of the world are on this case, and someone may still come forward with fresh information.

If she has 'gone' her pain and misery will have ended, and I for one raise thanks for that.
Her parents will never know any peace and for that they have my sympathy. A silly decision, they may have made, but they certainly never believed it would have the consequences it did................I just wish you could find a tiny place in your heart for them.
If she IS alive, then the Portuguese authorities would be better served in carrying out their jobs and trying to locate her, rather than sounding as if they are barking out any number of permutations from a distressing game of cluedo...................."It was Robert Murat, with his mother in a villa down the road"............No ? Damn ! In that case it was Kate McCann with the Calpol in the villa".....

A lot of people have said that they know the McCanns are innocent and could never have killed their child. I would like to know how they know this for certain? It has happened before where relatives (sometimes parents) have appeared on TV appealing for information regarding the death of a member of their family, only to be charged later for their murder! Why is it so unbelievable that they could have done it? What makes the McCanns so special?
Cluedo :) good point.
Silly decision??? silly - lacking seriousness; given to frivolity; "a dizzy blonde"; "light-headed teenagers"; "silly giggles"
alternatively? silly - ludicrous, foolish; "give me a cockamamie reason for not going" Shame on them for not questioning the safety of their children.
My thoughts, when I think about this particular case is purely for the child.

So, am I to glean from this that the howls raised against the McGanns are just spiteful jealousy ?
"What makes them so special ?" erm, their fvcking daughter has been stolen..............and before you start me-mawing the 'but they left her alone argument' just try and think of something else to bring to the discussion.
I don't think anyone is disputing the fact that the children were in one place and the adults in another.............Kate and Gerry obviously thought (incorrectly as it transpired) that the circumstances were such that this was NOT an unreasonable thing to do.
If the McCanns weren't being treated as suspects they wouldn't have to have legal representatives and thus a 'fighting fund' which is now starting to overshadow the more important 'For God's sake, Portuguese authorities, get your thumbs out of your ar$es and start looking for this little girl like you should have done in the first place' fund.
