    Evil is a moral construct that is relative and differs from society to society and person to person, it has about as much independent existance as unicorns. It's just a lot handier to say than "person commits act that the society we live in considers very, very, very, very wrong"

    but without a set obvious occurance to everyone as to what is right and wrong, and the gradients what is very right and very wrong then how do we seperate?

    If something of such sort which these guys take pride and major motivation in is not just not profoundly evil, but possibly good in someone elses eyes then where do we stand? It's just a moral guideline is common sense to me, regardless if what Moses claimed to have forged

    Maybe, but I'd take a wild guess a suggest they didn't charge him lightly.

    I'm obviously jumping the gun but I'd take a leap and say the trial is just a formality in this case.

    They didn't charge the Birmingham six lightly either...

    Charged not equal to guilty. Steady on folks, like Oscar Pistorious, he is innocent until proven guilty


    Hmmm, he is charged on 19 offenses. That's 19 different accounts from 19 different victims. That's alot.

    Tipp_Gunner, can I ask you a question? if it was me, who is just a regular guy from dublin who you never heard of, but charged with the same - would you still share the same view of "innocent until proven guilty" ?

    Despite what your reply may be you wouldnt give me that.

    I says to Mabel I says I always knew he was a bad 'un, he has right evil eyes so he does. That Roy Cropper is another one, he's as dirty as they come.

    If it's true he's a sick bastard and should be left to rot in prison.

    Who groomed him, at his age now, he would have been quite young when things were at their heights in the BBC and the show biz world. Will he tell.
    Hopefully he will, and help to bring the high up perverts that are being protected. Do It Kev, for all the kids that are coming behind you.

    Mistakes happen, and it's entirely possible he's innocent.

    However, this is an extremely sensitive case surrounding a public figure. A case that was originally dropped due to insufficient evidence, but now clearly new evidence has been found that has driven the police make an arrest and publicise it. It's also a case that (presumably) originated from highly publicised failure of the police and CPS.

    Factor in the Crown Courts 80% conviction rate and I'm confident in making a judgement (albeit a premature one).

    Do you think they are different countries ?. Just look back at the films over the years. Actors are actors, they are freelance, the most of them are.

    There is a set of guidelines in place for what a society considers right and wrong, based on the common values of the members of that society and the society as a whole, which does consider things on a gradient scale - it's called the law.

    It's funny how the article uses the word "charged".
    Going by the comments being made in here, you'd swear they'd said "convicted" instead.

    Such is the stupidity associated with literally any unproven allegations of sexual misconduct. The word "unproven" goes out the window and people lose everything they have before being given the chance to clear their name.

    Yet another argument for keeping the accused anonymous until and unless they are actually found guilty of doing something wrong.

    Maybe you should let them do it then and mind your own business. If you don't like the thread then don't post in it. Simples.

    So... you want to be the AH thread police police...?

    Merely pointing out the location of a more approroaite forum does not the police maketh. And the OP might get a more appropraite respeonce (althoguh what would entail is difficult to tell with a lack of personal input from said poster) from such advice.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    From the "Paedos" point of view, "18+ vagina" would be as useful as a comb to a bald guy

    That is how Savile got away for so long, when you are an idol especially in the BBC you are untouchable. I do not think the Police investigation into these perverted crimes are making mistakes. Catch one with his pants down they will squeel on the rest. Roll on. Cops in Sex cases are very dedicated people, and people should appreciate that.

    Its estimated about 3% or 4% of the general population are pedophiles*. Most don't molest and go under the radar, when they do we may or may not hear about it. But when a celebrity pedo molests you can't not hear about it.


    *To put that in perspective that's between 1 in 33 and 1 in 25 of people. How many people are on your FB friends list?
