The following passages are from a special report, I only go to the trouble to bring this subject up again, because if you take the time to read this fully you will learn that these crimes are more prevalent than even I knew they were.
To balance the scales to some extent are condemnations from some of the Muslim community also.
/// The experience of all these young girls has an uncomfortable element to it. It is a subject that in politically correct modern Britain is almost taboo — rarely spoken about by the police, the courts or even the agencies that counsel the girls afterwards. ///
/// The simple fact is that the perpetrators are almost all Asian and from the north of England — and their victims white.///
/// This week, the BBC reported the Derby case repeatedly on radio with barely a mention of the fact all but one of the gang members were Asian, or the fact the vast majority of the victims — 22 of the 27 mentioned in court — were white girls.///
/// In the city’s own newspaper, an eight-page investigation under the lurid headline in red capitals ‘Monsters in our Midst’ showed pictures of all nine gang members and printed their names, but failed to use the word Asian once.///
These are not my words, neither are they made up.
But the Daily Mail thought them important enough to raise a 'Special Report', two days after I had shown my concerns.

Why should they refer to them as Asians, AOG ? it doesn't matter where they come from, the whole thing is reprehensible. However, what about bibblebub's posting yesterday about heinous behaviour of indigenous white paedophiles? - http://www.bbc.co.uk/...and-cornwall-11839816 - it's the crime which is foul, not the colour, creed or background of the perpetrators. I do believe it's prevalent, it's only because of mass media (and the ease of travel for the men and their victims and their "customers" these days) that we hear about it at all. I am led to believe that this sort of thing has gone on since Victorian times, it's not new, we just hear more about it.
AOG,
I refer you to this link which was posted yesterday.

Where does it state the colour and ethnicity of these vile people?

Of course it doesn't, since this country is predominately a white country, unless otherwise stated it would be taken for granted, that they are white.
If however they were white but came from Poland (for example) then they would be so described.
Would it be also wrong if a Triad organisation was committing crimes in England, for them to be described as Chinese?
Don't try and read more into this, than needs to be.

WShee that is not at all the case. I cannot see how you come to that conclusion. Most of us would not condone any of these activities, it's the fact that they are not confined to any one particular racial group - or that anyone tries to suggest so - that I object to. There are other current threads you can look at which show a huge amount of indignation at these crimes.
