    Parents were warned last night that their children are not safe from paedophiles even in their own bedrooms as one of Britain's worst internet child sex abusers was jailed for eight and a half years yesterday.
    Postman Michael Williams (29) used Facebook, Bebo and MSN Messenger to groom up to 1,000 children across Britain.
    He used his trusted position in the community as a taxi driver and as a postman to target young girls on his rounds in Penryn, Cornwall, two of whom he later had sex with.

    We all know that over the years many paedophiles have become connected and are networking together, mainly due to the Internet.

    What is scary is the fact, that if 1 can groom 1000, imagine what damage a network could do.

    Stalking? I like to call it grooming.

    Do you say that to everyone on here. I'm posting a news article. I'm entitled to do so.

    There are many such topics on here. Do you say that to everyone or are you just singling me out. If you're singling me out then that is known as online harassment. That is a legal crime nowadays or do you not know that?

    You're being very defensive. You should probably calm down a bit.

    Are you stating that I'm not entitled to post on the Net. How come you feel you have the given right but I don't. If you don't want to participate in the discussion, then don't post, but you're in here posting to tell me to stop.

    Maybe you're a paedophile, who does not want these issues raised. Its either that or you have something personal against me? Which is it?

    People are just pointing out all your posts seem to be on the same subject. After Hours is meant for light-hearted discussion and jokes.

    And, no offence, but you seem to have a bit of a persecution complex there.

    If you're going to post continuously about the same subject then you should expect people to notice it and call you up on it. I actually took your last thread on face value and gave you the benefit of doubt.. that made me look like as big an asshole as you're coming across as. Seriously, I don't know if you're trolling or genuinely obsessed with the idea of child abuse.. either way, AH isn't the place to speak about it.
