I didn't say it wasn't.

It still doesn't make any sense to me to use these heinous crimes as a means to paint Muslims in a bad light. Many many many people have no inclination to commit such crimes. But you wouldn't believe it with some of the narratives appearing across both national and social media.

Gotta agree with that. Any targeting and abuse of a specific group like minors has to be. Paedophilia should be classified as a 'Hate Crime' too when acted upon.

Have to congratulate you Legal. Quite right of you to post such an attack what you call "cultural enrichment", carried out by what you call "scum".

We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

I don't use the word really, apart from commenting when others use it, because it doesn't really mean anything does it, it is just a term of abuse. Mind you a lot of words are these days just used as terms of abuse. You know, words like 'racist' and 'fascist' are routinely used by the new left to abuse anyone who doesn't agree with them, regardless of whether the particular point at debate has anything to do with race or extreme right wing ideology.

Not you specifically, but this is a public forum so people should know who I'm on about.

Is this rusty blade a bit blunt too?

Simple, a Christian man abuses children, we don't report on his religion unless he's in a position within that organisations.

Also, I suspect back in the 90s, and early 2000s it wouldn't have been reported if the offender was Muslim, Jewish, Shinto, Buddhist or anything other than some weird sect.

The problem is, the focus on being Muslim become linguistically synonymous with Terrorist and child molester supports an agenda in society, that pursues an agenda based on ethnic exclusion.

Not agreeing nor disagreeing with you at all here, but is there as much heat on Muslims that gang rape someone in a predominantly Muslim country, or is it only when they do so on historically non-Muslim territory?

Purely playing devil's advocate, but if a white Christian male went on a crime spree in a predominantly Muslim country [insert a crime that would be equally heinous in said country], would their news broadcasters mention his religion in that circumstance? I'd guess "yes".

And that would also be wrong, because it also serves the agenda of placing complex social problems onto simple generalisations.

Of course it definitely helps the Police forces and social workers involved to claim it was 'fear of political correctness that made us afraid to report people raping children'.

Sorry, but if you're afraid of political correctness preventing you from acting on rape of children - you shouldn't be in the police force or social services.

The whole thing distracts from the real issue of the story, which isn't about Muslims, but how the f**k did they get away with it, and holding not just those who committed the offences to account, but those who surrendered their legal obligation to do something about it.

So while everyone can get their Muslim hate focus on, the police and social services get a pass.

But empirically, there is an explicit and empirically established danger involved in crossing a road - Backed up by research that demonstrates you reduce the risk of being run over by looking both ways.

A more correct expression, I think, of your analogy, would be to blame the car for running down pedestrians (rather than the driver, his decisions).

Its not a practical solution though, as I pointed out, the issue isn't with people being Muslim, or the girls being white, but the shocking failure of the child care system and police to actually do their job - Again. Its the care home abuse scandals all over again.

But if we focus on the failures of the social care system and policing, we might have to face some very unpleasant truths about funding, and the systematic tax cuts that have been used to win elections for the last 40 years.

The Muslim aspect isn't practical at all. Practical means looking at a problem and resolving the obvious factors inherent in the problem.
