Gives you some papers that have reported it.
Whats the obsession with whether he had been stressed and was obsessed with porn?
I go through phases of regularly watching porn with my girlfriend, does that make me a likely candidate for child snatching?

Why didn't they arrest him and charge him with child porn related offences if so?
I'm not quite sure what the difference is between vile child porn and the regular kind is.
Plus Makoto I HAVE stumbled across child porn whilst looking for normal porn:yuck: , so I guess that would incriminate me too if my PC was checked:no:
- Today the McCanns get an audience with the Pope. I feel no further comment is required about this unbelievable event.
- An inflatable poster made in Glasgow has been erected in Portugal.
I am sure the inclusion of the 'News of the World' masterfont was an innocent error and that in no way is that publication trying to cash in on the tragedy
- According to another board, parents have set up a "paedophile watch" scheme in Bournemouth to try to protect their children in light of what happened to Madeleine McCann in Portugal. Volunteers are equipped with bright yellow overalls and have put up signs warning paedophiles that they are "not welcome".
Are you volunteering then Aladdin?
Yellow doesn't really suit me.
I work on a local paper, had to write a story the other day about some residents who organised a sponsored walk to raise money for the campaign to find Maddy. It just made me feel uncomfortable.
It's not that it's wrong, but the fact they felt moved to raise money for a cause so vague (where is the money going? Will money help her be found?), but not raise money for other causes (eg Darfur, orphans, millions of other causes that would help lots and lots of children) makes me a bit sad.
So long as we make it clear for them which areas they're welcome to come in and snatch children, and which areas they aren't, everybody is happy
My thoughts exactly.
This also stands out:
"Since Madeleine McCann disappeared, 450 (you read it right) children under the age of 15 have gone missing in the UK alone."
Aside from that, their daughter has gone missing so they **** of to Rome and leave their other two kids with someone else? It might be with a relative but I wouldn't let them out of my site under similar circumstances.
I hope Madeleine is found alive and well but this whole thing with the head-in-the-sky parents is a digusting media circus with some ulterior motives.
An unstantiated statement on Yahoo Questions? I find that rather hard to believe without proof of a reliable source.
We have a rule at work, if someone tells you a statistic/cost of a service and they use round numbers then chances are that they don't actually know the true picture....
Loads of Catholics go to the Vatican in a hope to seen the Pope. What the heck? I'm sorry but why should her parents get to see him over individuals suffering from cancer or people who are quadriplegics (for example) etc.
Yeah, I feel sorry for them, but I don't see why they are particularly worthy, when kids are dying all the time and that.
No matter how harsh it sounds, they shouldn't get such extreme preferrential treatment. Especially as they didn't even properly look after their kids that night in the first place!
So based on it being 26 days since she went missing I'd calculate it actually be 4986 children that have been reported missing since see went missing.
LMAO when I heard that story. Clearly mass hysteria and paranoia is alive and well in sunny Bournemouth.
I know, but if they make up that statistic then how much of the rest of the story is fabrication. It's the sort of sloppy journalism seen in Tabloid.
Jim's is better in that 4986 children will have gone missing, it has a ring of truth about it. Sham it starts from a figure of 70,000. Clearly another made up figure, either rounded up or a pure guess...
'Data collection is inadequate and fragmented. There is certainly no shortage of statistics. But they come from widely disparate sources, using different methods of data collection, different categorisations, and different timescales.'
So the 70,000 - 100,000 figures are probably made up, in the majority, by children missing for very short lengths of time.
Welcome...to paedogeddon!!
I don't think 'scrapping the bottom of the barrel' covers it...
:rolleyes:
oh.my.gosh.
sorry but that is funny.
wish I could write a front page splash about a butterfly landing on someone.
Gerry McCann is a lepidopterist. He noticed it was the exact same butterfly and got all excited before remembering he was meant to be thinking about his missing daughter while on his trip to Rome.
I'd be a bit nervous if I believed in reincarnation ...
lol that's what I was thinking!
