Well how about this: other people who also use this forum might want to discuss this particular crime, and/or violent crime "in general". Now you might not like that, but then you don't have to. If it bores you, nobody is forcing you to read it. And if a teenage girl being mutilated shocks others, but bores you, then feel free to spout about it not being an issue, as crime is falling "in general".
I didn't see any real on-topic opening discussion. I saw a fair bit of nothing and then ironic ranting.
What is the point in starting a thread with no premise or guidelines for a decent discussion other than the solitary headline or a newslink to the BBC? What you rapidly get is the same old free-for-all. Andyl is right, it rarely turns into an intelligent discussion and it is VERY BORING. It is why I rarely visit these forums anymore.

You see, none of you know any details of the story so all most of you end up doing do is trying to out-sick each other as to how you'd personally deal with the perpetrator of the crime. When you all run out of your public outporings of disgust (which usually happens well within the first page or two) and the thread is about to die then we get the usual baiting posts.
I'm sick of it and I think some of you need to grow up.

Goodbye, again.
