bill88 6 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 This topic was first highlighted last year,when myself and a number of other forum members spoke of the prefferential treatment given to the McCann family,by the media and the police after the tragic consequences of there NEGLECT!! I voiced my concerns over whether a missing child belonging to a working class family,living on a council estate would recieve the same help,support,and financial backing that the McCanns have received.I said they would not and sadly i have been proven correct. Poor Shannon has been missing for nearly 3 weeks and she has been all but forgotten by the the media so i would like to try and do my little bit for Shannon and her family by drawing your attention to this case. I sincerely hope that both Maddie and Shannon are found safe and well in the very near future,and the two of them will be in my prayers.God Bless them both. PLEASE READ THE LINKS BELOW,and if at all possible email both your local newspaper office and those of the tabloids to try and keep this case in the headlines.All children are precious,and class and status should never determine how important a missing child is. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article3463481.ece http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/template/...m=1204980033204 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My thoughts to her family and I hope sincerely that she is found safe and well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

trappa 518 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Great topic mate, im totally with you on this. The media are so shallow. Council estate kid dissapears and its not major news. Posh couple of doctors, she's very pretty.They lose a daughter and its MASSIVE. Absolutely stinks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tallyho 181 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 any child that goes missing should have the same soport reguardless of what backround they come from, a child is a child . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJones 7,975 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Totally agree... The Express did it for the McCanns for a good 6 months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
farlap 19 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Totally agree... The Express did it for the McCanns for a good 6 months. it never occured to me that there was some class issue going on do you really think thats the case? Hope both are found safe and sound...but have to say thought the parents of the portugal child were so negligent that they shouldbt be allowed to keep children Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJones 7,975 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 We did it in this thread... but yeah I do think so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest little lurcher Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 whilst i have sympathy for the mcganns i still find it hard to come to terms with why they chose not to have the babysitting service and that the kids were raised by the nanny??? im not sure but i think it was 2 days after her disappearance they were out walking down the beach for the cameras WITHOUT the other kids!!!! im sorry but if 1 of mine was missing my others wouldnt be parted from me for a sec!!!! def a class divide here !!! may all missing kids be found safe and sound xxx Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Limb 31 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Any child, regardless of backround deserverves support from us all. If anyone is covicted, throw the b*****d to the general public, let them dish out true justice, not the crap that the courts hand out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
