I don't know the bloke to be honest but in the very few interactions I had with him I can honestly say that I didn't like him.



He will find this his worst enemy, people will despise him even more.



Everyone is thinking the same thing.



True. He will find it very hard to be trusted again.

I think they have more chance of being reminded about any crimes, just going past a paper shop.
My 3 local paper shops have signs outside and the paper on the counter.

Very good post.
I fully agree with your last sentence.

How many other people would have been put under suspicion because of his actions??? It is beyond beleif that a business leaves money out as it did anyway.

Let him without sin cast the first stone hey?? He was in a high level position of trust and authority, dealing with issues that have political, ethical and monetary values. He stood for Lord Mayor that indicates his higher moral standing. very disappointed with you Mr Westerman.

Ultimately it can only be the decision of an individual to decide whether they forgive or not. Some people may have faith or beliefs that guide them but it is still their choice alone.



That's a fair point, my belief is that justice should mean justice and not revenge. Although there are as you rightly put there are people who are beyond rehabilitation. And if they are a threat to society then they should be removed from society. For example certain types of predatory paedophiles for examples who see their ways as a sexual preference no different to something like homosexuality. Now the notion that homosexuality can, or should be cured is absurd so as regards the worst kinds of paedophilia they should be removed from society for the protection of kids.

Who reads newspapers nowadays?

Victims of serious crime do not come onto a rugby website and expect to be faced with these issues - we've had this discussion before in relation to a specific crime. Unless you've suddenly become a qualified counsellor you are still talking ball ox.

Who said anything about reading newspapers.
I made the point, about any one going into, or walking past, would see the headlines.



People talk about serious crime all over the place. Anyone who is a victim could still be reminded in any walk of life.
Never tried to portray myself as anything like a qualified counsellor. No idea where you get that from.
So just because you dont agree with something/someone it means they are talking ball ox, as you put it.

Funny that, i dont think that. Everyone is entitled to there opinion. Shame yours is so closed.

If the CCTV was set up on the advice of the police then it sounds like something has been going on for a while but I would not want to accuse anybody of any crimes.

Yes, that could have been a touch OTT, just my frustration at your aparent need to say what's on your mind without thinking whether you should.



Absolutely, as I am entitled to mine, as long as I express it within the rules of the forum. Just because you or I hold an opinion does not make it truth.




I could say "ball ox" again but I'll just say you couldn't be further from the truth.

So just because you don't think i should say something, means i shouldn't say it.
I bet its great having a one way conversation with you
In your mind maybe

On this I agree 100%.
