That is a throwaway response to a serious question. You said…. of course we all know.

But who is “we”.

And…. is it the social services? the government? the councils? or do we just blame society as a whole, and if we blame society as a whole, that means the “we” who is to blame is all of us and the “we” who is responsible for the whole shameful state of things…. is US.

I am not convinced, personally, I think that there are a lot of people who are incompetent. Their answer to things is to “restructure” and then nobody knows what they are doing, endangered children are not taken into safety, and danger signs are missed. There is a climate of fear, nobody dare criticise. There are people who DO care and they get ignored.

So….. i repeat…. who are the murderers?

Well i feel no sympathy for him at all, and the good thing about this is, where prison would most likely fail at reforming him,when he is released maybe the fear of what will happen if he goes back in may make him stop and think twice next time, though im not gloating, hopefully this will serve as a stark reminder to him in future.

He is a bully, it is more likely to make him more determined to hurt and mutilate anything that cannot fight back thats gets in his way.

Pete.. we all know what happened to that beautiful child. There are threads in this area where we have discussed what can be done about the sentencing which is inadequate and often does not match the seriousness of these crimes against small children.

I am not condoning what he did. I am not condoning what the water thrower did either. I abhor violence of any kind.

People are entitled to post what they want….. but my feeling about threads like this, started so that people can spit venom at a screen are that they just show the worst side of human nature. People commit terrible crimes, and we all feel the same way about them because we are caring compassionate human beings. But ….lynching mobs, baying for blood? that is another side of human nature I just do not like

I will never subscribe to the hang em high.. gloating, mob mentality.

People who rub their hands with glee because of someone’s misfortune make me shudder. What this man did to a small child makes my heart ache. The man who threw the boiling water at him ….that was his choice. But forgive me if I don’t join in to gloat about it.

To wish impossible things – The Cure

remember how it used to be
when the sun would fill up the sky
remember how we used to feel
those days would never end
those days would never end

remember how it used to be
when the stars would fill the sky
remember how we used to dream
those nights would never end
those nights would never end

it was the sweetness of your skin
it was the hope of all we might have been
that fills me with the hope to wish
impossible things

but now the sun shines cold
and all the sky is grey
the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
and all i wish
is gone away
all i wish
is gone away

all i wish
is gone away

[minim]

I shudder at threads like this one.
