Unbelievably Evil Person

folks, the perpetrator is clearly psychologically unwell.

evil is quite a different thing altogether.

In some countries, they believe that sex with a baby cures HIV. Sick, sick world we live in...

So because of what happened here in the past that we are now dealing with it means we are not allowed to criticise what is happening now in Africa? At any rate the Irish record might be bad but perhaps what is happening in Africa is a tad worse as those children will actually die a horrible death from their experience.

Why do some people have this automatic mechanism of reacting to criticism of what happens in Africa or the Middle East by trying to claim we are just as bad?

No. It should be condemned everywhere it happens. But lets not pretend its just in foreign countries where poverty is rife. And unfortunately stuff like this is far from being in the past in this country.

BTW I do believe in equality between races, but I dont think all cultures are equal. Far from it.

Card identifying him as a human should be well and truly torn up.

The original point which you took issue with was specifically about the rape of children by HIV+ African men who think it can cure their disease, are you saying this is a problem in developed countries among the native populations also because I'm pretty sure we don't have ANY history of "stuff like this" in Ireland?

The child abuse which happened in Ireland was evil, horrendous and absolutely deplorable, but in my opinion what happens in Africa with the rape of children with the specific intention of infecting that child with HIV is far, far worse. In fact they can hardly be compared.

I'm saying that child abuse is a problem everywhere. And abuse where the abuser has HIV did occur in a developed country in this instance didnt it.

As for you saying that what happens in Africa "can hardly be compared" to what happened/happens here, you must live a very sheltered life.

I'm saying a child who is raped by a HIV+ man can hardly be compared to a child raped by an old parish priest. Plenty of victims of Irish child abuse managed to deal with their experience and went on to live normal, fulfilling lives, to fall in love and have families of their own, a child in Africa raped by a HIV+ man will have no opportunity to do any of this and will die a slow, painful death from the disease.

In my opinion these two experiences are barely comparable but you are free to disagree if you wish and if you think this view makes me sheltered then I suggest you just go to google and do some research on the short, brutal lives of child AIDS victims in Africa.

Did he do it because he believed it would cure his disease?

Yes Sollar you are quite correct, sadly.
in parts of central & southern Africa, local superstition "advises" having sexual intercourse with a virgin as a "cure" for HIV/AIDs. This is a particularly big problem in Sth. Africa, where pre pubecent school girls are regularly targeted.

Quite possibly this deluded, half-wit was trying to cure himself.
That or he's just another sicko retard who has no idea of anything.

I seen this story on another site and according to that he also deliberately infected a women with HIV. I don't think he thought he could cure himself. He's clearly a calculating, sick bastard who should at the very least be locked up for the rest of his life.

God that poor poor little boy. I actually can't believe it. The fact that this happened to a 6 month old boy and the fact it was his own father just renders me speechless..

I hope that kid doesn't develop the disease and that he isn't negatively affected psychologically. I'm not 100% about this but would the child be too young to have developed a strong event memory yet? Hopefully.
I hope he is taken into care by a loving, caring family.

That is wrong for so, so many reasons
