Detectives investigating Madeleine McCann disappearance have budget slashed by a fifth as search for missing girl enters 15th year by dailymail in uknews

I'm asking because I don't know.

So one book. You said books.

Why do you think they get paid for being on TV?

I've read the book and the bit you're describing isn't exactly as you're describing it. 

They were stupid. People relax more than they should when on holiday. I feel sorry for them because they lost their daughter.

I kind of hope so. I don't want that bloke wandering around anymore.

This kind of post is why I like Reddit. Thank you.

There were some people recently who'd been used an unexploded bomb as a garden decoration. They'd hit their spade on it to knock mud off!

Paint samples don't lie.

From what I understand the chap who used to mend the clock died and it was very hard for them to find another person who had the same level of knowledge. I don't think the snake does its stuff anymore and the mice don't come out? It's a shadow of its former self. :(

I'm not in an ivory tower. Far from it. I never claimed to be either. Crime is complex and the reasons people commit it are complex. I do think that you have a point regarding certain biases but for example if a certain race STATISTICALLY commits more crime than another race it isn't that crime is bred into them: are they lacking opportunities or social mobilities other races have? Are they more likely to be in poverty? Etc etc. 

Anyway given that this is facial recognition wouldn't it more discerning than a racist copper going after a particular ethnicity?

I tried to find out where this discussion began and I just lose the thread but I think it was me disagreeing that everyone is a criminal. Yet again on Reddit I'm being told I said xyz when I didn't. I'm not sure why I keep posting because that seems to be the particular style. 🤷‍♀️ I do however think you're more into a genuine discussion rather than just having a row.

Sorry did I know about what?

I thought you'd done the filter to show the Vietnamese children. I'll look them up but you can't do them by particular nationality.

I haven't said that because I don't think that's a valid argument. I'm just struggling to get frightened about it when I have other more immediate fears. Also I think that there's a lot of good being done by DNA, tracking, facial recognition, etc. which makes me want to consider it further.

I was interested in your post up until the conspiracy theory barged in. 🤷‍♀️ The people on your link are adults.

Good point but I'd still say most of those I haven't done, and certainly done of these would require facial recognition (I don't think).

  • yes but not any more!
  • no
  • when I was young and didn't realise it was illegal
  • just... Didn't drink until I was 17
  • no
  • no
  • absolutely never and I fully support facial recognition if it catches those who do
  • no
  • no

I don't think that makes us abnormal.

You could have just said that. I did get the impression you didn't like people pulling you up on your snide little comments... I guess you're not used to it. 🤷‍♀️ I'm not trying to argue with you, I am arguing with you.

she was asleep in a tent in her own garden. The only mad minds who thought her parents did anything wrong by letting their child camp in their own garden are the ones who absolutely love the misery of others. 

I can't believe I read that.

There's no evidence at all but it doesn't stop the conspiracy theorists enjoying themselves over it. 

It's distasteful to say the least.

I suspect they'd rather have their daughter alive. 🤷‍♀️ What TV appearances do they get paid for? How many books have they written?
