    Makes you wonder how many dark haired kids that are bought/sold/stolen and never even discovered because they don't stand out.

    The mother was claiming to have 6 children within a 10 month period and they're not sextuplets. Well done to the Greek authorities.

    All the bans!!!!!!!!!!
    Is it really necessary?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 637 ✭✭✭ruthloss


    I really wanted her to be Madi when I heard it on the News this morning.
    Looking at how well she looks., this must give the McCann's renewed hope.

    Allowing a group of people meander around and not adhere to some of the laws of a country (tax, child neglect etc.) that the vast majority abide by is surely asking for trouble?

    Look up outgroups and ingroups and alienation etc. People do not take naturally to groups that are different to them but it has to be worked at.

    College nonsense...people dont take kindly to groups who flout the law of the land through begging,stealing and fraud and think nothing of using children to do thier dirty work for them.

    Romas are notorious for this behavior and Greece,having a border with Romania nd Bulgaria is full of them.

    Here's a docu on Romas in England.

    The McCanns know better than anybody that it wasnt maddie and she'll never be seen alive again.

    I'll leave it at that.

    If you're suggesting they had something to do with her disappearance, if you've watched them on telly and seen how distraught they actually are that their daughter has vanished, you'd know this theory is bollox tbh.

    Well you think (and hope) that. But that don't make it a fact, innit?

    How exactly would you know that ? We have no idea where Madeleine is and what happened her .

    Honestly on at lest 5 seperate occasions I have seen an adult hoisting a young one up and half into one of those charity collection bins to pull the clothes out again.

    Obviously I can't know that for certain. No one can.

    I can only voice my own opinion. I honestly do not (for one second) believe anything sinister has happened to the child at the hands of her parents.

    Lilke you said though, No one has any real idea what's happened to the little girl.

    I feel sorry for Romanian people who because they are from romania are compared to Gypsies. Its like comparing all Irish people to travellers, just because we are the same nationality, although we are nothing alike.


    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people

    Most people outside Ireland and Britain don't compare the two separate peoples, in my experience.

    Travellers on the other hand have strong Irish origins.

    The picture of that little girl made me want to hug her and hug her more, she looked so scared and worried, it pulled my heart strings..........:(

    Same, tbh.

    The thought occurred to me that she may have been taken as a baby and may not know any different to the life she was living. I really do hope her parents are found, but depending on when she was taken, she may not have any recollection of them at all. God love her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 617 ✭✭✭snowbabe


    Is she not on a missing list???? Maybe not which makes it even sadder! So sad that police have to put out a request to who actually she belongs to.I think there is so much poverty etc in the world that we have no idea what goes on (underground) for want of a better term. Life is pretty cheap today and that saddens me hugely.

    Shocking story.

    Maddie? Are you mathematically challenged?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,687 ✭✭✭Karl Stein


    That poor wee thing must be very distressed. Imagine someone coming to you as a nipper and taking you away from your 'parents' and safe place and telling you that you were stolen.

    Actually, it's unimaginable.

    I watched until 13:40, where it says 13 year old girl sold into wedlock and the marriage consumated and then celebrated as she was a virgin :mad:
    Is that what that poor child had in store for her?
    Id say Maddie is long gone, she may have been valuable to who ever took her but became too known to still be able to be kept alive.
    If you look at the brassness of the people prior to 13:30 stating they will steal and then the value on child brides, It makes for a strong case to regulate who is moving across borders, not saying it was Roma, but with that level of entitlement to steal, maybe kidnapping doesnt come far after, was talk of its worth, the selling of child brides.

    Seen it myself, a discussion came up about it a while back, I never realised it was alucrative business so I can see where the guy got shpt might have been connected.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,240 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    Had 2roma gypsies steal a charity box from work, two of them came in, one distracted the employee while the other one stole it. Classy stuff.

    From the looks of her hair I think they dyed it brown at one stage. I hope they find her real family.

    Looks to me like it's dyed blonde! Looks very unnatural. My hair is naturally a kinda golden blonde and that is the exact colour it goes if I put bleach in it.
