Kenny you are a cretin, calling meat eaters worse than paedophiles

I didn't actually say that, but lets not argue about you mis-quoting me.

Now watch this and tell me I'm totally out of order.

What a hypocrite you are. You seriously believe that eating meat that has a toy tractor on the label absolves you .You have such a problem with meat,its production and consumption but you  don't have the courage or strength to ignore your appetites and eat just  vegetables. Its not even difficult. just don't eat meat.How you have the nerve to present your wavering principles with such fervour is a mystery. You are a hypocrite pure and simple.

Oh go **** yourself, you're going back 2 years to the Red Tractor discussion. I haven't eaten meat for a long while and if I did I'd make damn sure I knew where it was from and how it was cared for, unlike people like you who couldn't give a toss.

My apologies.If you are truly a veggie I was not aware of that and so I'm out of order.

I readily approve of your piety

Seriously though you say you have not eaten meat for a while but I'm sure its not that long ago that you were defending eating ethically produced meat.When did you decide to convert?

Yes I probably was but it doesn't mean I was eating meat at the time. Jan 1st. The only NYR I've stuck with.

I bet most people havent seriously looked at the evidence, 'some' of it against harris is flimsy to say the least, im not going to post it - study it yourself. Especailly the counts in relation to his daughter's friend.

does he act and look like an innocent man to you tony

Did he do it? Did he do all of it? Did he do any of it?

Those ought to be separate questions but the media and the jury seem to have treated them as one. My own view is that Rolf is guilty and deserves to be locked up. Having said that, I am surprised he was convicted on all counts as the evidence for the first two seemed very shaky -- if they can't prove he was in the right place or get the date to within two years, then all that is left is that the allegations look similar to the ones they could prove.

As I said, I do not think there has been any great miscarriage of justice but it seems a step back to the bad old days of "noble cause corruption" when known villains would be sent down for jobs they hadn't actually done. "George Davis is innocent" never meant George Davis was in line for sainthood.

It takes a very brave man to "try it on" with Vanessa.One clout from her and you could end up with a face like Jake La Motta.

Humanely slaughtering animals for human consumption is of course important.

However, abusing human minors is more important. If you don't see that Kenny Mann then you truly are as big an imbecile as you portray yourself to be. A jumped up, pious human hating hypocrite.

ha ha, maybe later.

charwell, I have no problem when animals are slaughtered as long as it is done as humanely as possible, and they have led a good life. It's the ones in the above (and below) video and 100s of other similar videos that I'm referring to which have probably led a horrible existence and certainly met a disgusting end.

as regards being an apologist for sex abusers although I'm sure it happens it seems to me that all you need to do is prove that you were in an area during the same time as Rolf Harris, the further back in time, the better, then your case will be cut and dry. Just sit back and let the media, the law and the courts do all the crucifying on your behalf at the tax payers expense while you remain behind the scenes.
If you decide to wave your anonymity and come out front with your allegations of the horrific touching of your body by our Rolfy, claiming he  ruined the rest of your life, then you will be offered thousands of pounds by the media for your story and TV appearances as the long and suffering victim of having yourself touched by a celebrity back in 1857  Even if your story is a load of lies and total bollocks it makes no difference, as all you need to be is convincing enough.

They have to prove it I should think, and explain why they waited 40 years.
By:

When: 06 Jul 14 18:38
How would they prove it 'then'? No forensic evidence. The celebrities word against that of a child.

"They won't believe you because you're only a kid". As true today as it ever was.

Why did they wait 40 years? They felt 'dirty'. They felt it was their fault. They didn't know that there were other victims. Their word alone would not even get to court. They wanted to forget it and 'move on'. They didn't want their father/son/family to know for any number of personal reasons.

How many explanations would you like?
By:

When: 06 Jul 14 18:38
Well I doubt if all of the accusers have photographic evidence, but can prove they were in the same place as the alleged molester at the time of the assault which I did say.

Some of them will be after money, very little doubt about that. In fact they've already got their eyes on his 12m

And how else would the perpetrator compensate his many victims? A lot of these peoples' lives will have been screwed up by the psychological effects of his acts. They are the ones who have not, and will never, come forward. They will keep their dark, sordid secret to themselves, as they have done all of their lives.

I will agree that there may well be some sham claims put forward but these claims are checked by the police. It is not just a matter of 'stick your name on the list'. They are criminal charges and are treated as such.

I don't buy all this "lives ruined" stuff, admittedly it may have had a dramatic effect in the more serious cases, but most will have put it well out of their mind.

So you're saying (and it's obviously a subject very dear to your heart by the number of similar threads you've commented on)that the alleged victim needs to prove she was in the same place as Rolf at the time of the alleged assault are you? Or photographic evidence as well?

apparently rolf's art is not wanted anymore. even ebay don't want to sell it.

Rolf's portrait of the queen made her look like an axe murderer. She was not amused. In fact she called him a fooooking cnunt to his face

By:

When: 06 Jul 14 23:01
I was just wondering what proof they might deem as acceptable, naydam, for them to consider the accusation as upheld, so to speak.Can they just say they were in the same place in a certain year as the accused or would they need more than that? More than that would be difficult to supply I would imagine.

Quite right Kenny, Polaroid cameras never came out until the 70s.
