Wandering Off Topic

[G-Unit]

I find it very hard to believe you have no beliefs nor have ever speculated about this case, if only in private.    No one here is able to contribute any facts about the case you don’t already know about so why invite discussion about it in the first place, when really all other people have to offer apart from the same facts you already know is opinions and beliefs?  This research project doesn’t need a public forum really, does it...or does it?

I think it's time you accepted that I'm under no obligation to enlighten you about my motives, beliefs or choice of subject when posting. I intend to continue to post how and what I want to, making every effort to keep to the rules of the forum. I suggest that you do the same and cease what is beginning to feel like harassment.

No they wouldn't need a motive first.  Many murders are investigated and suspects apprehended before a motive for them is arrived at.

That should have happened with a tampered crime scene and no evidence of an intruder and deleted mobile history without notifying the police. They had their suspicions that things didn't add up. Did they ask the McCanns why mobile history was deleted only hours after the disappearance? Not to my knowledge.

I was only asking questions, I do apologise.  But I agree, it’s uncomfortable when your motives, and every word and deed are picked over tirelessly isn’t it?  Imagine it multiplied by hundreds of 1000s over the course of 11 years, knowing this enormous critical scrutiny exists on numerous social media platforms and in best selling books, how much like harrassment that must feel.

I used to know another member who spent a lot of time 'only asking questions'. Very similar questions, actually. Thank you for the apology; hopefully you will now concentrate on the discussions and accept that no-one has to explain themselves to you. I don''t know how the rest of your post is relevant. Whatever you're talking about, it's nothing to do with me.

And I don’t know what relevance the behaviour of past members has to me or the discussion at hand, but I won’t ask you to explain yourself as that would obviously be harrassment wouldn’t it?

There is a sense of deja vu.

Equally, no one has the right to harass someone who believes Madeleine was abducted.

It seems the moderators were doing their job as the comment was speedily deleted. Both were ad hominem behaviour, but there's a difference in my opinion. Harassment and bullying are characterised by being repeated. Name-calling is a one-off event.

Nothing on here hurts.

nope its called ignore  button and no nothing  hurts on here unless you  are too sensitive

It wasn't a one off event so thanks for the clarification..

Until or if  we hear otherwise the "McCanns story" is also the story being believed by the current police investigation IMO.

Posters are well aware that personal comments and criticism of other members will be removed in line with forum rules. No member is required to give an account of their opinion or personal point of view.

I subscribe to the woke and wandered and lifted from the street outside theory based on hard evidence. Nobody has yet come up with an alternate plausible explanation for that evidence.

That may well be the case,but it could also be the reason it remains unsolved imo.
