Madeleine McCann’s parents hit by ‘150 vile tweets a DAY from online trolls’

[faithlilly]

You are clearly in a state of denial.

We are told that the McCanns don't use social media so why the brouhaha?

[Alfie]

Currently on the #McCann tag there is a concerted effort to smear Dave Edgar - I wonder why....

What brouhaha are you referring to?

Shall we examine Dave Edgar's record, as an employee of the Mccann's.

Remember the Victoria Beckham lookalike incident ?

Remember the lawless village 10 miles from PDL ?

For the purposes of contributing to this thread - someone asked for evidence of nasty tweets so I provided it.

The tweet you posted was not addressed to the McCanns. It wasn't very nice, but I wouldn't describe it as 'vile' or 'spewing bile'. Still, one down 149 to go. I looked and they're not there.

So what are you suggesting here?

You really can't guess ?

When in court in Lisbon he said he'd only read part of the files. How can you possibly lead a comprehensive investigation when you are only aware of some of the information that's been generated ?

Further should he really be giving his opinion when there is an ongoing investigation by two countries into the crime ? I assume his actions have the McCanns approval.

Let us be aware of the danger of Libel, if you please.

He believes the McCanns to be innocent.

Therefore his reputation must be trashed.

The end.

Most certainly ON topic ... not sure about libel though ... I'll leave for now though.

Maddie #McCann will never get the chance to say Happy Mothers Day to Kate. Unless it's through a medium. Dogs don't lie. Both of them.

Most of the really nasty tweets come with accompanying propaganda pictures, either photoshopped, or with captions, which I can't reproduce here. 

That's from a one minute perusal, which is about as long as you'd want to spend looking before feeling dirty.

Dogs don't lie.

And dogs can't read.

But humans do.

And humans can.

Yes they do.

The question is, in this case, WHO.

I'm giving examples of the 150 Viles tweets a day - the majority are undoubtedly going to be libellous, but we can't really put paid to the belief that the #McCann tag is a bastion of civility and lovely, decent justice seekers "only asking questions" without doing so.  As I said before the really nasty propaganda ones usually have picture content attached so unfortunately I can't post them here (dunno how, or if I am allowed to).
