"Because YOU'RE the people assuming racism at every turn. And it's your side who is attacking his family."
With Tommy that's a given, his family well not so much.
I think you might be assuming quite a bit yourself.
Where/when have i attacked Tommy 10 names family?
"But it's Tommy.. ha. he deserves it. Denounce it then, strike out at those who do.. they're on your side. he's only Stevie.. the liar, the racist, who once headed the worst group on the planet, the EDL."
You just summed the dude up in spades, well done!
Hat and a balloon for you there.
"Smash some more racists.. Yarr, they're just monsters.. Look, there is one, he's wearing a polo neck shirt... that's how we know them these days."
Naw mate, but when they start to bump there gums and spout religious intolerant inflammatory bull crap that could quite possibly have lead to the dismissal of two trials involving nefarious paedophiles besting little girls, that a hint as to how to spot them.
You don't just look you also have to listen. LoL

Those valid points are all for Tommy's personal gain.
And he did not bring up nor uncover these horrendous acts of depravity.
He simply used them to promote his own nefarious religious intolerant agenda!
There's rather a difference by orders of magnitude.
The Paedophiles responsible for these horrible acts of depravity are now in gaol, off our street, and away from vulnerable people, for the time being, no thanks to Tommy, that's a given.

Ok, I just read a few news articles on the case and am left kinda wondering about what exactly he was trying to accomplish by interfering with a criminal trial like that?
I mean, fair enough if the trial was already over and the men were found not guilty.
But as far as I can see, all he did was put the prosecution's case at risk, for the pure purpose of self promotion.
Do you think jurors aren't swayed by outside influences as it is? Do you not think they would be influenced by the prosecution showing pictures of the victims? That would negate a fair trial in my mind, so how would someone reporting it, whether they show bias or not, do any worse? I guess we're just acknowledging ceremony at that point.
The jury are meant to reach a decision based on the evidence presented, which has to done in way consistent with a fair trial.
Meant to, being the operative phrase here. Most people go in with their minds already made up, depending on how heinous the crime, and its up to the defense to change their minds. If the defense can't do that, then it doesn't really matter what influenced the jury.
In a high profile or more disturbing case it's probably impossible for a jury to be completely objective. However the aim of the legal system should be to ensure as fair a trial as possible.

"As a potential juror, if a case was basically summed up as "A bunch of middle-eastern men were caught raping kids", that would throw my objectivity off before someone with YouTube videos would."
Have to say i would probably fall in to that category also, regarding men caught raping kids, which is why we would probobly not be selected for jury duty. LoL
Don't matter where they are from through, as a beast is a beast.
As to our beloved gooberments past and present VIP pedophile ring connections.
That's been going on since time immemorial and simply swept under the carpet.
Its is a stain on this nation, the aristocracy, and any other nefarious bastard politicians and/or civil servants, complicit enough to attempt to hide such debauchery away form public light.

Surely, as a member of a jury you would listen to evidence and have an open mind, but hey ho.
Anyway, it's clearly difficult for some people to understand how legal processes work, specifically how trials work in England. However, running around filming, and attempting to film the accused (who were found guilty by the way), the jury, the witnesses and all that would be disruptive, and is therefore contemptuous of court proceedings. Robinson was told not to do so, but he continued. He knew what he was doing. Here, read up the original hearing. Go on... read it.

Canny be that well protected quite a few just went to gaol for beasting those poor wee girls.
End of the day thats a win, the real tragedy lies in the fact that it took social work and Police so long to prosecute.
Adding race on to any crime through can somewhat diminish the actual act by way of detracting from the actual criminal act.
Like i said a beast is a beast.
What does it matter as to the race or religious orientations of the bastards in question?
If it had been white christian pedophiles who committed these horrendous acts would we label them as such, or would the simple be pedophiles?
