Was 50 metres from the apartment 50 metres too far?

'I would keep my opinion to myself' 

'm glad you find that funny.  In fact I don't often voice opinions, but I do challenge them, perhaps you had not noticed?

If Kate did not scream for Gerry from the rear patio was it because she thought the distance was too far?

So if one or more children had made it to the patio screaming, does this mean it was to far for the T9 to have heard?

She screamed from the balcony later, as a Tapas waiter reported. However, given what was happening maybe the Tapas had become quieter. Wasn't music usually played in there?

After a few moments, around 5 or 10 minutes, he heard screaming from the apartment zone and saw a woman on the balcony of 5 A. He did not understand what she was saying.

My opinion in such a circumstance would be the same.  What idiots, I would think,  but then I would remember that I wasn't 100% perfect either and I would keep my opinion to myself as I don't see how being eternally publicly judgmental about others' failings or stupidity helps anyone, and ends up actually seeming rather cruel in the circumstances. All IMO of course.

You do think they were idiots then? I only refer their failings because others seem to be in complete denial about them.
Some people on here seem determined to paint them as responsible intelligent people and I can't go along with that and say nothing. I'm speaking to those people, not the McCanns.

i prefer not to publicly and repeatedly  castigate people who have suffered greatly as a result of their own foolish actions.  This may be a problem for some, but that's just the way I am.

I see the mccanns as responsible....no one would have expected an abduction.......they and maddie were terribly unlucky...simple as that. If you continue to castigate the mccanns and question their intelligence I will continue to support them

So you come here to castigate the castigators ?

I certainly do

I don't know why he bothers, the 'castigators' don't care because they know they're not castigating.

I come here to challenge your (collective)  views, which to me are sometimes quite bafflingly illogical and often incredibly judgmental and snide.  You are able to defend yourselves and challenge back, unlike those who are the main object of your scrutiny and criticism.

Bafflingly illogical alfred ?

To the contrary, many people find it totally baffling why certain parties come on here to defend the mccanns, no matter what.

As to the mccanns 'not using social media', is that an established fact or merely hearsay ?

It is already known they have 'associates' monitoring the internet on their behalf.

I wonder if the McCanns are grateful to all those who stick up for them on the internet? Some of the things their say to others are pretty abusive imo. I've been called stupid, snide, a Jesuit (? I know!) and cruel just to name a few of the things they've called me.

Good grief - you actually find it ''totally baffling'' that there are people who agree with the police forces of two countries who have ruled the McCanns out of the investigation - rather than agree with armchair detectives who only have some of the info to go on - no access to anyone involved in the case - and no expertise in policework?      Now that really is baffling IMO.

Totally baffling, hardly my dear.

Can you point me to any evidence which proves abduction ?

Allegedly.
