Telegraph................."Six-year-olds sexually abused by UN peacekeepers"

Crime beat

A commenter puts it in the right context



"Reassuring that knife crime is a 'rare event' with only 56,200 violent attacks.
That's 154 every day or one every 9 minutes.
And that is only 10-17 year olds, and presumably only those who get caught?
In my book, Haley's comet is a rare event. Most rail services don't have a train every 9 minutes"

"But it is also possible that the public has finally had enough of these utopian gasbags and their capitulation agenda. One can only hope that this is the case.

"If it’s “change” we’re after, how about the kind of change that Winston Churchill believed in when in April of 1941 he told his embattled countrymen: “In the long run — believe me, for I know — the action of the United States will be dictated not by methodical calculations of profit and loss, but by moral sentiment, and by that gleaming flash of resolve which lifts the hearts of men and nations, and springs from the spiritual foundations of life itself.” … All the better if it does not require yet another Pearl Harbor before America, again, awakes. "

"There is only one way to reduce the appalling toll of crime, violence and murder, and that is to replace ‘anything goes’ with ‘nothing goes’. A clear line has to be drawn in the sand, sending the unequivocal signal that no anti-social, threatening or criminal behaviour will be tolerated".......

It means recognising that the people whose feelings should be paramount are the victims of crime."
