Would you trust people like them around your kids?

What the **** has that to do with anything ??

No I wouldn't trust them with my kids - Just like I wouldn't trust you or any other stranger with my kids - that's not an attack on you, but it's a ridiculous statement.

While we are at it will we do a similar search on all such property belonging to fans of Roman Polanski? He has had plenty of public support from figures such as Martin Scorsese, David Lynch and Michael Mann, I assume that makes them suspected child abuse supporters too?

In fairness Polanski slept with a 14 year old girl (not condoning this!!!) , big difference really - Glitter was molesting pre pubescent girls - the essence of peadophilia really.

They should all be investigated for pedophelia.

And Gadd should have his bollox cut off.

Sure, there were people who went out of their way to threaten death on anyone who believed, and still believe the allegations made against Michael Jackson. So........

"Ted Bundy's On Trial In Florida for killing 24 women - the courtroom is filled with women trying to meet him and give him love letters and wedding proposals. I'm sorry to say that the first thing I thought when I read that was "And I'm not getting laid! What am I doing wrong?" So I read another article in the paper: "Woman is suing the state of Wisconsin." Why would anyone sue the state of Wisconsin? Well, she married a fella on death row. Why's he on death row? He killed 8 women. [No, there's more] He has aids, she married him and is suing the state for the rights of CONJUGAL VISITS. Now I'm sorry to say the first thing that crossed my mind when I read that was "And I'm not getting laid!" Hey, what exactly are you ladies looking for here? These guys must have been heavy on that sense of humor thing you seem to love so much in your little ladies polls. "Ted Bundy that old whip! He's hilarious! Something of the things Ted would do, he kills me! Oh what a sense of humor he had. I overlooked the mass murder thing 'cause he kept me in stitches!"

There are Ted Bundy forums where women post their undying love for the monster.

Well look ...

What the man did was wrong. No question about it.
But - back in the day - his music was great and most teenagers
at the time loved it. Older people now remember their youth and that time
too when there was some really great music around. For such people, those
were what you call - "The Good Ol Days" ... Glitter contributed to that too.

What I don't understand is a lot of other 70s rockstars had 13 and 14 year old girlfriends and groupies and yet are still respected members of the pop establishment.

That's not an attempt to condone Glitters evil but I can't understand why others seem to escape similiar. Was it that there was a faint notion of consent or something?

Look at the people singing Putin's praises only on another thread on this forum - if people put someone on a pedestal sufficiently enough, it's amazing how easily and happily they can slip into doublethink.
These people are likely moreso in denial about Gadd's convictions rather than being in support of child abuse.

Manson was engaged to a woman in her 20s up until a couple of weeks ago. He broke it off because he found out she was marrying him so she would have legal posession of his corpse after he died.

I love to know how much Glitter has made from What's the story morning glory? Noel nicked a bit of hello hello and had to give him (& his co writer) a song writing credit. Wikipedia (no pun intended) "As of 2015 it has sold approximately 22 million copies worldwide"

Michael Jackson had a big support group and still huge, still referred to as the king of pop. I do believe with him there was no smoke without fire and he was accused of many things and settled out of court. You only have to watch that oprah or bashir interview with him to see that he was mental and had a strange way of justifying his unusual behaviour. Even maybe people excuse it because he wasn't convicted but Gary Glitter has been convicted.

I do think its wrong of people to support Gary Glitter. Im not sure about investigating each one but they clearly have their wires crossed somewhere. He reoffended after being caught and obviously doesn't think he has done anything wrong. Anyone ever see that creepy clip on youtube of him on "this is your life"??

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ2p8_4pqTI

Anyway I understand that people like the songs, but to go and offer your support to him outside the court is very bad taste. By supporting him, those people are sending a message that if you are celebrity that no matter what you do, you still have people behind you. People actually taking their time to go out and wish a convicted paedophile well is sick and may give other paedophiles a sense of what they are doing is ok or acceptable.

Somoeone with a "strange way of justifying his unusual behaviour" does not make someone a pedophile or a child molestor.

It does make them an easier target though.

Christmas concert on the nonce wing at Wandsworth will be good this year though, Gary Glitter, Rolf Harris and things not looking good for Cliff Richards either. All star cast. Max Clifford can organise it.

Practically speaking a blanket, mass investigation of a crowd of idiots who probably aren't pedophiles for pedophilia by association will consume police time and resources that could better be used to detect and stop, you know, actual pedophiles.

I'm delighted to see Gillian Taylforth back in Eastenders. Doesn't mean I condone her driving while drunk, let alone it be something I would therefore do myself. Strange that anyone would suggest being a fan of someone is indicative of that person also supporting and condoning that person's crimes, or in fact, also highly likely of having committed the very same crimes themselves. Bizarre.

Glitter, Rolf Harris, Jimmy Savile all seem to be conmen who invented eccentric personas to cover themselves.


I find the female hysteria towards pop stars etc, bizarre, its similar with religion. Even Padre Pio had groupies.

Look at the mass hysteria of Glitters fans. Almost like they are in a trance. No wonder someone like Charles Manson or other cults could manipulate them to do anything.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpAYBsWcLuM


I suppose some teenage groupies who threw themselves a pop stars are now 55 years old granny's, totally different people and feel they were abused.

On stage was a popstar exalting obvious sexuality to thousands of hysterical teenage girls(where were their parents ?), it was only going to go end one way, remember it was the 70s, such things were the norm back then.

My sister once asked to go on Top of the Pops, my oldman said no way, it was obvious what went on, even on tv presenters openly had their arms all over teenage girls.

cruasder777

Check this out Jimmy Savile and Glitter together. Blatant. Glitters comments "I get two, " Savile replies, "I shouldn't be giving them away for free".

You and me both, brutha! I've always been baffled by this behaviour from my fellow XXers. It goes beyond religious to almost cultish. Sense stops prevailing. I find it so toe-curlingly embarrassing. Was watching an old Graham Norton episode the other day featuring Zac Efron and the shrieking from the audience was cringeworthy, not to mention annoying. :mad:

Well according to Sigmund Freud females on average identify more with the irrational side of the mind, feelings, emotions etc. Hence the interest in astrology, and all that kind of stuff.

I mean you dont get males writing to female nut jobs in prison do you.

Frightening post really.

This world is so f*cking over paranoid about child abuse, seems anyone who even looks at a kid now a days is a pervert, like some earlier poster says, it's pure hero worship - these people probably really think it's some kind of witch hunt and that he really didn't do wrong - deluded yes, but to have there rights taken away like that ???

What you have suggested would appear in a 1984 adaptation ffs.

I don't get it.
I can separate the artist from the art no problem. There's tons of examples of fairly disgusting people turning out great works of art from movies to literature to music. I've no problem with liking the music even if the musician is a scumbag - but demonstrating outside a court, clapping a cheering a recidivist paedophile? That's not just questionable it's fúcking disgusting and certainly raises questions as to what they might be like themselves if you ask me. I'm with lapin on this one - fúck their right to privacy - they've given due cause to have it curtailed.

With all the accusations against so called celebrities for underage sex, I always wondered how Bill Wymen got away with it. Mandy Smith by her own admission was only 14 when she slept with him. As far as I'm aware when you're dealing with underage stuff the police don't need to receive a complaint.
