VITRIOLIC WEBSITE FORUM IS HOME FOR SPINELESS COWARDS

I HAD the misfortune to encounter some of the lowest forms of human life last week.

Thankfully it was only on the internet. My comments about the bungling, thicko Portuguese cops who mishandled the Madeline McCann case upset a bunch of lowlifes who are so sick and twisted that they have set up a website forum dedicated to attacking the McCanns.

It's appallingly cruel and filled with horrendous attacks on a tragic couple, who for the rest of their lives, will count the cost of their mistake.

What kind of people would devote so much of their energy to that level of vitriol?

What kind of morons would be on web forums in the middle of the night spitting hatred to total strangers, when the only real issue here is that a little girl is still missing?
I hope to God the McCanns don't read it. The internet has a lot to answer for. It has given spineless cowards a place to hide while they drip poison, masquerading as people who want to get to the truth.

There has to be some way we can legislate to shut these people down

The case is split into those that throw xonophobic abuse at a country and it's police force and those that have actually informed themselves and read those very police files. Unfortunately you belong to the former group and are spouting only opinions whereas the informed ones have at least some facts to support their claims.

the arrogance and ignorance of this tragedy is beyond comprehension..our own newspapers fail to see what is taking place before their eyes..a faltering circus of complete idiocy!!!
Get the McCanns into a court of law before they swallow their tongues!

You are absolutely right those evil people have mocked even the children, I wouldn't like to repeat what they have said about that above innocent photograph of Madeleine, many of us have been sickened by this for a long time, there needs to be some law to stop this harassment.

Well done to you for highlighting the vileness that has been happening on that site for years now. It's sick and disgusting and need shutting down!
A lot of people have been campaigning to have this site closed for a long time, I'm just glad that it's now being brought into the public eye.
Thank you!
