Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

Right so any example I give is flawed because the majority of people are white. So you'll only accept an example where there majority is not white and, giving the UK is mostly white, that leaves me with little to work with.

Examples where they met over the Internet doesn't count. Examples where the majority of people are white doesn't count.

You're basically narrowing down every example until I am left only with the Asian community, which I have already conceded seems to have a different problem which needs to be looked into.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

I'm not scared to Google for the facts, the striking thing is these are quite large gangs in small geographic areas.

Rochdale gang: 12 accused and 9 convicted, 8 were British Pakistani and the 9th

was an Afghan asylum seeker.

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

To quote the source:

Mohammed Shafiq, chief executive of the Ramadhan Foundation, accused elders of

the Pakistani community of "burying their heads in the sand" on the matter of

sexual grooming. He said that of 68 recent convictions involving child sexual

exploitation, 59 were of British Pakistani men and it was a significant problem

for that community.

Following the break up of the first sex ring, in May 2012 the police made arrests in relation to an earlier child sexual exploitation ring in Rochdale. Nine men between 24 and 38-years-old were arrested on suspicion of sexual activity with a child.[19] About a dozen more cases involving Asian Muslims in Northern England are under investigation.[20] A 2012 report by the Deputy children's commissioner said that 33% of child sex abuse by gangs in Britain was committed by Asians, where Asians are 7% of the population, but concluded that it was "irresponsible" to dwell on the data.

Derby gang: 13 accused and 9 convicted, 75 offences relating to 26 girls

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

To quote the source:

Former home secretary, Jack Straw, said that though there were many white sex

offenders, there was a "specific problem" in some areas of Pakistani men

targeting "vulnerable white girls", whom they perceived as "easy meat" for sexual

abuse. He urged the Pakistani community to be "more open" about the abuse.[8]

Former MP and women's campaigner, Ann Cryer, endorsed Straw's comments saying

there was a problem that Muslim MPs were not prepared to confront; that there was

a minority of young Asian males that did do not "behave properly towards white

women."[7] Atma Singh, from the Sikh Community Action Network, praised Straw for

being "honest" about the "pockets of youngsters in the Pakistani Muslim community

who treat girls from other communities as 'sexual objects'."[4] Children's

minister, Tim Loughton, warned that "closed" Asian communities, "political

correctness and racial sensitivities" had affected investigations into child sex

grooming by Asian gangs.

Rotherham gang: 5 Pakistani men

Oxford gang: 7 accused and found guilty, 5 Pakistani and 2 North African targetting 11-15yr olds

Telford gang: 7 accused and found guilty all Pakistani.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

You've missed the point entirely.

For the sake of figures, let's say in any section of society, 20% of men are sex offenders regardless of race or nationality.

Take Oxford Street in London. That would mean 20% of the men there (again I stress, hypothetically) are sex offenders. As it's a busy London street that percentage is likely to be made up of all different colours and races.

Take the Catholic church. Due to the very large number of white British or Irish men who are priests, that 20% is going to be almost universally white.

The BBC during the 60s and 70s. If you weren't white and middle class then it would be very unlikely you'd get in as a presenter. Therefore that 20% again would probably be all white.

These sex gangs I refer to as Asian. They may be from cities with large Asian populations (Rochdale, Bradford etc) however they are not exclusive. And if you pardon the expression a pervert is a pervert regardless of colour.

Yet we have yet to see any white Brits in these gangs.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

I still don't see the contradiction here. White people can still formed these groups or used them to hide their crimes.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

Yet we do not hear of any of these street gangs getting to court.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

I'm sure there are/ were. All white British paedophile rings.

Either they're very good at not being caught, or they've retired.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

Network,ring,gang..I think some of you are just using semantics to try and make out that white people aren't the same as Asians and yet the crime is just the same..

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

I'm sure Russ isn't saying that.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

I'm pointing out that these street gangs are almost always 100% Asian and there isn't a clear reason why that in any of the cases reported in the media none of them contain any white Brits.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

We all know that people of all races and religions are capable of all sorts of crimes and that circumstances, opportunity etc. play a big part in that. The point here is that a very high proportion of those involved in this type of crime come from a certain community and it seems to me to be reasonable to try to establish the extent to which cultural differences, prejudices etc. have played a role in this. If they have played a significant role then we at least have a chance to do something about changing attitudes/behaviour rather than simply reacting to events. This is what operation Trident is all about isn't it? Initially it focussed on trying to get to the bottom of black on black gang crime to understand the mindset of those involved and try to stop it happening. Now it's been accepted that this form of activity has extended into and between other communities, the remit of Trident has been broadened to take this into account. This, I believe, is what should happen in the case of gang based abuse and exploitation and only when the problem is acknowledged and understood will we be able to do something about it.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

I think the point is that different 'groups' go about their exploitation in different ways as Damien has pointed out.My point being is that the crime is the same which ever way these 'groups' go about abusing their victims and that ALL the differing method need looking into.Just concentrating on one particular 'grouping' would be a mistake.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

Isn't it Pakistan where there's a gang rape every eight hours and it's not really a surprise it's migrated here when you have perverted courts decreeing women should be raped by thirteen men as punishment, guess which men had to perform the task as well

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

The crime is NOT always the same. The disturbing(and sinister?) pattern with these "Asian" gangs, it that it isn't just for personal sexual gratification or to make money. The treatment of the victims goes way beyond that, with alcohol and drugs, violence, and passing them around to others. Those "others" tend not to be caught and included in the conviction figures. Perpetrators from that "group" are under-reported in any figures.

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

Some statistics here - FullFact

Re: Child grooming gang found guilty
 

Interesting, but I don't think anyone has suggested there are more Asian sex offenders.
