I doubt if most people would read into that what you have. Maybes us tabloid reeedurs don't nede as meny wurds to get the jist of an internet post,
so for clarities sake for those broadsheet readers with bigger brains than mine,
My sympathy lies mainly, but not exclusively, with the family of the victims.
It's right that families and prisoners are given support. I feel more sympathy for the victims who find about releases/home visits by the local press knocking on their front door. It's a very emotional time of the year for anybody who has suffered a bereavement. The first couple of Christmases must be particularly hellish for a parent who has lost a child. I can only imagine hearing such news 3rd hand must be extremely upsetting to those who are grieving.

If you think you can get the measure of me reading the drivel I post you are way off the mark.
If you had been as observant as you think you are you would have noticed the smiley icon and deduced that I've been observant enough to notice your feelings about that particular rag.
If you'd been more observant in your attempt to get the measure of me you'd already know that it's a viewpoint we share.
