What people also do not mention is that these sex offenders may have tried it closer to home and within their (extended) family. There may be more hidden victims.

Yes absolutely, and this is why we cannot tolerate "no go zones" and let's not kid ourselves there are a few out there. The "no go zones" aren't specific to any 1 group, many groups have them and mostly they are "no go zones" due to extreme violence.....that can't be allowed ever at all. The laws of the land must be enforced, they must be applicable to all the strongest to the weakest the richest to the poorest.Quote:

And if it's NOT a cultural or religious thing, then all the better to make certain people understand that so any kind of racism or xenophobia is quelled.
People in charge of protecting and serving the community that allow for such things to happen AND the lawmakers that allow for such things to happen should be held accountable.
The local council that allowed this to happen for fear of being labeled racist or to advance their political careers has by their dereliction of duty created fodder for racists....surely that must be addressed no?
Where did you live in the states? Also thank you for taking the time to reply to me.....some people get too angry....which hell I can anger some people I admit it sometimes I even try to piss people off (it's kind of what the internet is for, anonymously pissing people off),but also the internet makes it difficult to infer the tone of a post.
Very true and if it is an issue among refugees, like Australia is having a Hell of a time with their UN camps for refugees (which I guess is what you'd refer to them as)...then victims might be less likely to come forward and/or trust law enforcement because of their interactions with law enforcement in their home countries could have been bad ones.Quote:

Halloween is probably one of the first good experiences with using imagination for kids. Remember making your first costume? School and Halloween parties started shit for me. In the 4th grade I dressed up as a "zombie". Torn pants, great half mask half make up. Out teacher gave out costume ribbons of all types. Scariest, most creative, historical etc etc. My ribbon was "most hysterical costume"??? Not exactly what I was going for ;D. The next year I dressed as "Burglar". Boots, levis, camo jacket and the topper was a pull down ski mask worn as a hat. On the way to school I was stopped by two cop cars after someone reported me as suspicious and advised to leave the ski mask in the principles office for my ol man to pick up. No ribbon that year :-X
My elementary school used to have a Halloween/Fall Fair....we had a dunk tank, bobbing for apples, a spooky maze made out of big cardboard boxes, lots of games and prizes and this was after school so children and parents could meet each other, make new friends, see old friends, meet and interact with the teachers, inspire a sense of community with some harmless fun and general merrymaking.Quote:

Sounds exactly the same. And yeh there was always that kid who didn't participate for whatever reason. We had a kid named Jake who always sat out and just watched but it never once got to the point of kids ridiculing him or him feeling "left out" :vd: News flash..no one cared. After the tiny fair he'd sit there and we'd pile boxes of Milk Duds and whatever candy we caught from the Halloween piñata on him and he ate that shat up. Adults sitting around legislating so that kids will not be left out or made to feel alone in school :p Can you show me a single child who didn't at one point or another feel left out and alone in School? Shit, frankly it looks like some kids need more alone time today. I can't fookin imagine being in constant flip of a switch contact with every friend I had back then, like one huge glued group of codependent cattle. Off of an old geezer rant there...carry on ;DQuote:
