Child grooming gang found guilty
 
Quote:

Nine men have been convicted of being part of a child sexual exploitation ring in Greater Manchester.

The men, from Rochdale and Oldham, "groomed" girls, one as young as 13.

Let's hope they're sentenced accordingly and face a very long time behind bars.

Let's hope that Bubba and his gang have a nice time in the showers with them and a bar of soap

I do hope your right but sadly with the weak jail sentences we have now been lumbered with thanks to the libs i doubt they will get more than 3 years and out after 2 years for good behaviour.

I think that there are a lot of questions that need answering ,one of which is how a child in the care of social services can get caught abused like that .

Agree fully but we know they will get a sentence that is not going to go any where near what they should get.

From the article:

Quote:

Mohammed Shafiq, chief executive of of the Ramadhan Foundation, accused Pakistani community elders of "burying their heads in the sand" on the issue of on-street grooming.

"There is a significant problem for the British Pakistani community," he said.

"There should be no silence in addressing the issue of race as this is central to the actions of these criminals.

"They think that white teenage girls are worthless and can be abused without a second thought; it is this sort of behaviour that is bringing shame on our community."

But Assistant Chief Constable Steve Heywood of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) denied that the ethnicity of either the defendants or the victims was a factor.

"It is not a racial issue," he said. "This is about adults preying on vulnerable young children.

"It just happens that in this particular area and time the demographics were that these were Asian men."

I see,

Far as i am concerned they should have the book thrown at them because of the crime they have committed. Unfortunately i fear they will be given a mere slapped hand and told not to do it again.

If it's just about vulnerable children, do they only come in shades of white in those parts then? :confused:

I must say I feel there is probably something in what Mr Shafiq had to say.

From what i can remember, and i think there is a thread about this ,there where a lot of accusations flying around at the time concerning the police being worried about prosecuting in case they get accused of racism ,and that the men involved where targeting white girls and i'm sorry to say it i think there is something to it .
