Gary Glitter

sonar732 · 11-30-05, 10:50 AM

What the heck was Great Britain thinking? He served half of a 4 month term for child porn, gets kicked out of Cambodia, and is now facing charges in Vietnam of child rape. If GB would've given him a stronger sentence, the world wouldn't have to worry about this sick-o who victimizes children.

Call me bias for having 4 girls under the age of 10.

True I wouldn't trust him round my daughter.

Thing is he was found with "just" child porn pictures on his PC. He wasn't accused of anything more.

2 months, 4 months I don't see much difference really both are too short.

He could face the death penalty in Vietnam though.

I agree I think he should have been put away longer. But in Britain concerning this stuff our laws are mucked up.

He was always a strange one; so much so that there was a little rhyme that associated itself with Gary Glitter-
'cockney' rhyming slang: Garry Glitter = up the s***ter.

I guess the authorities here found he'd not physically harmed anyone through only viewing (not my oppinion) so couldn't secure a harsher sentence.
As with most sentencing over here and elsewhere you can get put away for more years for fraud or being dodgey with money than you can for rape (child or otherwise), this has always seemed unfair to me as money is just bits of paper with an extremly abstract value, whereas people are people. I suppose this only shows where our true interests lie in the end.
But as far as the UK is concerned, out of sight out of mind- he's somebody elses problem for the time being.

A disgusting man is all I will say.

Actually he and Michael Jackson should perhaps get together minus any kids.

A kid and his mum are shopping in a town, after entering a highly decorated store the kid turns to his mum and says:
"Mum, do they have Christmas decorations in Vietnam?"
His mum pauses and then replies:
"Not usually but this year they're hanging Glitter."

He has always been a queer bloke. brings new meaning to the song "Do you wanna be in my gang?"

Well, personally I've always been one for an-eye-for-eye kinda of justice. Simply castrate him and be done with it. If he still feels like looking at young girls after that, set him up with weekly sexual drive suspressant injections. Wasn't that easy?

Easy - yes, but painfull enough = definately not

Ho about skinning him and then sticking him in a tub of salt :hmm: :hmm: (just for starters)

If you don't use any kind of anasetic (sp?), it would be plenty painful.
