Wandering Off Topic

One of the most depressing facts to come out of last night’s programme is that 14% of people in Britain believe that the Manchester bombing was faked or part of some conspiracy.  I genuinely thought we were a more sensible people than the Americans who seem to lap up this kind of crap but if seems not.  So anyone on here think RDH is right on this subject?

He looked pretty sheepish when confronted by the BBC reporter and I reckon after what happened to Alex Jones recently he’s likely soiling his undergarments.   i do hope so.  Given that you and your ilk have spent 15 years publicly criticizing the McCanns for being shameless self promoters I think you’re a fine one to talk about starving anyone of the oxygen of publicity, however I can understand why shining a light on RDH’s activities would make you uncomfortable- you are all part of the same insidious, nasty problem IMO: “the worst of the human psyche electronically unleashed”.

Why would Hall’s bizarre beliefs and actions make me uncomfortable?

Your view of the world is often rather linear and lazy….”the unquestioning beliefs of the malleable made real” shall we say?

Simple: because broadly speaking your views wrt to this case, he shares, and vice versa.   Two conspiracy theorists cut from the same cloth, only one of you is a lot more successful at pushing his agenda.  You can quibble about the minutiae of what you believe and how it differs from what he believes but fundamentally you both believe the McCanns dunnit and that there has been a conspiracy and cover up, and that they have profited from it and that the High Ups have supported it.  You will of course deny this, but your denials would wring hollow and be exposed if you were ever to engage in an honest debate on the subject.  As there's no chance of that, it's pointless discussing further.

There's a lot of bizarre beliefs around online. Some people, for example, think there may be conspiracies surounding the case of Madeleine McCann. They think there's some sort of orchestrated attack on her parents; some have pondered if the PJ planted evidence against them! Others think people are changing stories and evidence to make them look guilty. Even the Portuguese judiciary have been suspected of unethical practices.

You seem to have missed out a few: that Madeleine died before the 3rd May.  That the UK government was mobilized the day after the disappearance to protect and cover up for the McCanns.  That the Met was instructed not to investigate the McCanns.  That CB is being set up as a patsy.  Any reason for missing those ones out?

The Portuguese Judiciary doesn't have any ethics.

Thanks for confirming the silly things some people believe.

Thanks for confirming that you have no idea of what ethics are.

And yet you believe that the top police force in this country was prevented by persons unknown from investigating the McCanns!

Among other equally daft ideas.

No, they were given a restrictive remit which meant they were only to investigate one possible crime. The Met, btw is not the 'top' police force in any country.

You do not know that this is true.  Only that Colin Sutton was told something by an anonymous source when Colin Sutton was never going to get the lead role anyway.

So just more absolute rubbish.

how does that differ from what I wrote?  Who gave them the remit and why?  Hmmmmmmmm?  The Met is certainly the most internationally famous police force in the UK, I used the term "top" loosely, wihch police force would you consider the country's top force?

It plays well with the conspiracy theorists though.

Who gave SY the remit... You can't answer and are just making things up
