Rotherham: In the face of such evil, who is the racist now?

2014-08-28

[TELEGRAPH.CO.UK] Let's start with a riddle. If South Yorkshire Police can mount a raid on Sir Cliff Richard's home in pursuit of evidence linked to a single allegation of child sex abuse 30 years ago, why were South Yorkshire Police incapable of pursuing multiple allegations against multiple men who raped 1,400 children over 16 years?

One thousand four hundred. Consider the weight of that number, feel its tragic heft. Picture 50 junior-school classes of little girls in Rotherham, once a respectable northern town, now a byword for depravity. We have seen child-grooming cases before, but the disgusting stories revealed in the report by Professor Alexis Jay amount to evidence of abuse on an industrial scale.

Men of Pak heritage treated white girls like toilet paper. They picked children up from schools and care homes and trafficked them across northern cities for other men to join in the fun. They doused a 15-year-old in petrol and threatened to set her alight should she dare to report them. They menaced entire families and made maidens of tender years watch as they raped other children.

#9 Easy to be farsighted and look across 'the pond' with hindsight. We need some local violent endings to the same violent acts.

#8 "i have to put pakistan and saudi up there as the most evil nations re religious intolerance and treatment of women."

Why shouldn't e.g. Iran and 'liberated' Afghanistan be classified as at least equally evil?

In all of these nations religious freedom carries the death penalty.

#7 I suspect if a few of those fathers had guns the problem would have sorted itself out fifteen years ago.

#6 Sadly, the Brits are past being able to fix this, and they lack the means and cultural will to confront it in civil unrest. This will boil until it pits groups of outraged ethnic groups in open rioting, then they will have to consider what the Empire did in India/Pakistan. Only spitting their little island. Oh perfidious Albion, how the mighty have fallen.

#5 Anyone think they do this in Pakistan? Like its a sick cultural trait? Or is it about picking on western kids? Under the nose of Western authority?

#3 The postmodern left can never acknowledge the horror of these crimes. To do so would undermine the great foundation of their entire world view and philosophy, which is that the white Christian heterosexual male is the greatest evil that the universe can create. This is the monopole to which the entirety of the rest of their beliefs are tethered.

If in fact something were to exist that were more destructive and evil, then the very basis for their universe would be null and void, and they would have to do the hard work of rethinking their most basic tenets. Most of them frankly do not have the intelligence, work ethic, or honesty to do this, so they resolve the cognitive dissonance resulting from the fact of these rapes by downplaying their horrible nature, and going on slutwalks, and railing on about "privilege", etc.

Add to this the fact that reforming their ideas might lead to a change in society where the current order which keeps nearly all leftists fat and happy on publicly funded incomes, tenure, and the like would change, causing anxiety about their pay and status, and it isn't hard to see why these sorts are so reluctant to name this evil for what it is

#2 Looks like the police have been instructed to help COVER UP child abuse.
These celeb prosecutions are a smoke screen to hide the inaction against the very guilty.
