When Madeleine is Found.

[Vertigo Swirl]

I'm surprised you're unable to grasp what normal is. Has your much relied upon common sense deserted you?

You earlier claimed that individuals that had suffered terrible abuse in their earlier life would not be able to lead a normal life.  What do you mean by that exactly?  What is normal in those circumstances?  I mean, did survivors of the holocaust, or survivors of attempted murder, rape or other serious crimes go on to lead abnormal lives after the trauma?  Why is "normal" outwith their grasp? 

[Erngath]

It's the opportunity to choose to do those daft things that's normal. The Fritzi's had no choice in how they lived.

It wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

Those children HAD an abnormal childhood.
Perhaps they have with support gained a fairly normal type of life, just as other survivors of dreadful childhoods have done.

With the Judicial Police and Scotland Yard on the case and all the indications pointing to very serious investigation of predominately male strangers ... is there a huge elephant in the room trumpeting 'abduction ~ by persons unknown.'

Madeleine being found would surely raise a lot of questions requiring answers from all those who have worked tirelessly over the years to have their preferred option of her death recognised as the only game in town.

In my opinion no-one knows what either the PJ or OG are doing. Neither of them afaik has claimed to be searching for Madeleine McCann, despite the newspaper headlines claiming that OG are being given funds to 'continue the search'.

Only OG have claimed that the child was abducted. In that they are following the claim made by her parents immediately her disappearance was made known. The parents and others have worked tirelessly over the years to have their preferred option of abduction recognised as the only possible explanation. The parents are the ones who  have taken legal action against anyone who suggested there could be another explanation. They and others have attacked those who have questioned their preferred explanation, suggesting that they are morally reprehensible in some way.

1) No one in their right minds prefers for their daughter to have been abducted - wrong choice of words
2) The McCanns have not attacked anyone, they have DEFENDED themselves against accusations that they were involved in Madeleine's disappearance which they have said are untrue. 
3) People who accuse others publicly and who make a living out of doing so, without there being any strong evidence to suggest that their accusations are in any way justified could legitimately be described as morally reprehensible in some way, IMO.

Please note, the discussion is, "When Madeleine is found".

When Madeleine is found what will we all do?  I presume the question means found alive.  Well, I might cry with happiness and turn to religion.  What will those who have spent 13 years pointing their accusatory fingers at her parents do?  Rejoice?  Admit they were wrong?  Apologise?  Or just carry on blaming her parents anyway?  I know what my money’s on.

Do you believe that Madeleine being found alive would mitigate the blame thrust upon her parents?

There's every chance I'd ruminate on it, in whichever manner she is found, and point my particularly withered, judgemental, accusatory finger at the next unwitting victim of my anonymous, unrelenting, totally erroneous ire.
Or, as is more likely, just find another forum to procrastinate on. One about cars. Or pizza ovens.

Erm, well let’s see...yes.  You see, it would mean there was no falling off the sofa and bleeding to death, no hiding the body in a bin, no fraudulent fund, etc, instead there would be an abductor who had deprived a child of her loving family for thr last 13 years.  Obviously some would see the abductor as some sort of hero, but that’s because IMO they’re a bit unbalanced.

It would make all the nastiness directed at the parents by those who believe amarals theory look more than s bit dilly

...and nobody wants to 'look a bit silly'. Is that it?
Breaking News: A Croyden man was made to look a bit sill today, when it transpired that he was wrong on the internet.

From what I can see of some posts on here some posters are quite comfortable looking s bit silly..

See a bit silly as a euphemism as I'm not allowed to say what I really think

It's Croydon by the way

Worst case these deluded individuals feel 'what you're not allowed to say'. I'm pretty sure that most wouldn't give a rat's ass.

....by the way, you're not allowed to correct spelling or grammar, remember. Or does that only apply to sceptics?
