pongo Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Everyone has got to take a gut feel on this one I haven't. The whole thing is barely on my radar - the occasional photo at a foreign airport is more or less all I know of this story. But this thread is interesting. What sort of person would want to learn all the detail? It's weird how people end up so invested in the internet conspiracies and tabloid details of a thing. It seems like yet another manifestation of the conspiracy minded internet mob mentality which is gradually infecting everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notwell Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I just don't understand how with all of this evidence they have not been charged and taken to trial. Its amazing what having connections and access to money can get you these days... Connections?!?!??! They're not the fucking mafia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 what interests me pongo is how some very intelligent people can be so accepting of what they are told, even to the point of not looking at any evidence, then state things as truth and gospel and be so certain that they are right. no offense chinahand, it's not just you. im not saying you are wrong but how can you be so certain you are right?

pongo Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 what interests me pongo is how some very intelligent people can be so accepting of what they are told That argument seems to have become a basic catch-all. People seem increasingly to believe that literally everything is a conspiracy - the EU, the UN, banksters, UFOs, the BBC, cures for cancer, Jews, NATO, capitalists, the Police, MPs etc etc. I basically blame the internet.

oldmanxfella Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Wonder if it has anything to do with Jerry's government connection... And not to mention his brother Terry McCann. You wouldn't want to come onto his manor and get embroiled in one of Arthur's little schemes or he'd give you a really tasty slap. I bet he's involved too. He's been inside I hear.

manxb&b Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 The whole Madeline McCann case has kicked up a media and public storm that never truly goes away and Gerry and Kate McCann have been hounded by the press and the police since the outset. There must be times when they wish they hadn't even killed her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebees Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 It is great to ignore, I have an opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilligaf Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 they didnt go out and look for her the night she went missing. as a parent thats completely incomprehensible to me The McCann's were advised by the PJ to not join in the search. There were two other siblings to care for also. What a bloody awful thread, with such nasty opinions from people who only have information from the press coverage. Were you there that night then? No, I thought not . How do you form opinions, if not from what you see, hear and read? Oh and were your rose tinted glasses from China too? And what the fuck do you know about the case? You weren't there that night either so how do you form your opinions on this? Read what I said about how we form our opinions, . The McCanns had 3 kids to care for, remember, but that didn't bother them too much before, did it. No, I was not there, (nor were any Jury members or Judges !) but I have read just about everything published about this case, both here, in Spain and in Germany. Reading all that and reading between the lines too it is vary easy to form an opinion. Are you just like Chinahand and shouting people down for their views, even though he,( at least,) knows very little about it ?. I don't know if you are a parent, but I am and strange parental behaviour stands out a mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilligaf Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I am a parent. Am I like Chinahand? Only from a million miles away. What irks me is that you'll claim, like others, that you've read up on this subject and feel informed. I posted a link to a rebuttal site, did you bother to read that? Probably not. It's about the whole story not just the lazy self-satisfying conjecture spouted by conspiracy theorists pissing down their legs, smug in false knowledge. But I have read up on it and read the Police reports witness statements and just about everything I have seen about the case. What makes your opinion any more informed than mine (or about 95% of others)?. You believe what you have read just like I believe lots of the stuff I've read. I think the link you posted was bollocks, you think it's fact. Also can't understand the bitterness and swearing in your posts towards those of us with opposing views to yours. As I said before, we ALL form our opinions from what we hear, see and read. That includes every Joe Public, Judge and Jury member who have not been at the scene of any of the crimes.

Chinahand Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Just like the religion debate - the agnostics are accused by the believers of hiding from the evidence that the believers know to be true, and agnosticism isn't accepted as a legitimate point of view: we're the ones who have been taken in; as Quilp says oh the irony. My position on this issue is doubt, I do not think anyone has enough evidence to justify the vitriol and obsession this case generates. The problem with saying that is those who are sure will bombard you with their proof, but I'm not emotionally invested in it, I'm not interested in your claims to have solved this case. Those whose job it is to collect, weigh up evidence and prosecute people don't agree that any case has been made. Until they do and that case is heard, overcomes a defence and is accepted by a jury I'm honest enough to say I don't know the details. Unlike Dilligaf who clearly wants to put on his black cap and bang down his gavel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake me up Judy Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 It's that vacuum inside their heads China; that always needs filling, always needs answers, explanations, reasons, and closure. An opportunistic media, and the new social media with its viral paranoia, generates and fills that space. If Millie Dowler's killer hadn't been found, then the conspiracy spotlight would have lasered in on Millie's father. But instead they've got that fat evil bastard Bellfield to fill the hole in their imagination, and boy does he fill it. Case and conspiracy closed, 'nothing to see here', we've got our man, literally and imaginatively. Christ, this is a piss poor thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
