Oh! Please!
As any rational human being knows, kids, and toddlers in particular, do and say the most inappropriate things at the most inappropriate times.
That's how they learn and that's how they teach us.
'Out of the mouth's of babes and sucklings' is one of the most poignant sayings attributed to a Middle Eastern teacher who went by the name of Jesus two thousand years ago, and it is still as relevant now.
Young children, grasping for information and trying to formulate a reality in their developing minds and brains, challenge our mule-like adult opinions, formulated by years of personal disappointment, our immediate environment's cultural, religious and social bias and the Geo-political manipulations of whoever was in power at the time.
We, the people do not need another mandate to the masses by another 12 million pound quango to inform us that toddlers will upset social and cultural norms,we know that, that is their purpose.

BBC NEWS | Politics | Davis cruises to by-election win
Haltemprice and Howden By-election
The Green Party questioned Mr Davis's stance on some civil liberties issues - including his support for the 28-day limit on holding terror suspects without charge, increased from 14 days in 2005, and his views on capital punishment and gay rights.
This is no Road to Damascus conversion by Mr Davis here, this is a careful manipulation of public concerns over the loss of our civil liberties.
Rape law campaigner Jill Saward, who stood as an independent, criticised his opposition to extending the DNA database and CCTV - which she sees as "the very tools the police need to keep us safe".
No Jill you are wrong.
Heinous as this particular crime is, the statistics regarding the amount of crime DNA and CCTV actually solve are minimal and with rape, a crime often conducted in an environment free of any surveillance, CCTV would have little or no impact.
Given also that many of the CCTV systems around the country are in poor state of repair or not manned 24/7, or that the images obtained are of a quality unsutable to be used in court.

Home Office - CCTV
CCTV is just another illusion which does not make us safer.

Terror Stopped For putting My Hand In My Pocket
'What's it got in it's pocketses?' PCSO Gollum.
(Taken from article)
For those who are unaware, a PCSO is not a real police officer, but merely a "visible and reassuring presence on the streets" employed to tackle "the menace of anti-social behaviour".
PCSOs have the same powers of arrest as any other ordinary citizen in the UK, and can arrest anyone without warrant if they know or believe they have committed an indictable offence. They can hold someone for up to thirty minutes while waiting for a police officer to reach the scene.
Essentially they are stasi-like spies and tattle tales in bright yellow jackets.
Ah! The perennial hobby bobby!These people would have reached the heady position of parkie, those creepy ones who use to spy on little kids from behind the Rhoddendrums, or confiscate sleds in winter.
So we get 'policing' (another term I use in it's most loosest sence) on the cheap by those who would seek power but are, in effect, puppets of the political moribund.

BBC NEWS | Wales | Mid Wales | 'Fancy dress' assault on girl, 13
'Fancy dress' assault on girl, 13
Dyfed-Powys Police are investigating a serious sex assault on a 13-year-old girl during a fancy dress event.
The alleged attack took place near St Idloes Church at Llanidloes in Powys at about 2200 BST on Friday.
I hope the standard of detective work on this case is of a higher caliber than the Dyfed-Powys Police usual piss-poor attitude.

Alex Jones’ Prison Planet.com The ‘Big Brother’ By-Election Is Beginning To Stink
All is not what it seems.......
Taken from the article
'The ‘Big Brother’ By-Election Is Beginning To Stink
Why are ‘Neocons’ behind the Big Brother State supporting David Davis in his ‘opposition’ to the Big Brother State?
Conservative Member of Parliament, Ed Vaizey, came to the Haltemprice and Howden ‘Big Brother’ by-election campaign to ‘support’ the stance that his colleague David Davis claims to be waging against an Orwellian society.
This is very strange given Vaizey’s background which connects with the very people who are seeking to impose the Big Brother State that he and Davis now say they oppose.
What goes on?
By David Icke
Ed Vaizey, the MP for Wantage and Didcot, is one of the signatories of principles for the Henry Jackson Society, a ‘think tank’ that mirrors the aims and agenda of the Project for the New American Century ‘think tank’ that was the driving and manipulating force behind the ‘war on terror’ and the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq.
This has more twists in it than the Gordian Knot!!!

BBC NEWS | Wales | Three Welsh politicians 'raped'
BBC NEWS | Wales | Three Welsh politicians 'raped'
'Three members of the Welsh assembly have disclosed in a questionnaire they were sent by one of their colleagues that they have been raped.
Nerys Evans sent it to all 60 Assembly Members (AMs) and eight responded.
None of the three reported the rape, and neither did another AM who was a victim of domestic abuse.'
'Miss Evans said: "I am surprised at the results. They are pretty shocking. It just shows how widespread violence against women and domestic abuse is."She is launching the results of the Amnesty and NUS survey at the assembly on Wednesday.
The two organisations are calling on the assembly government and universities and colleges in Wales to take measures to tackle violence against women students.
The survey of more than 700 students across Welsh campuses found 64% of respondents knew women whose partners had hit them, and 41% knew women who had been pressurised or coerced into sex.A third also believed a woman was totally or partially responsible for being raped or sexually assaulted if she was drunk or had been flirtatious, and a quarter thought she was in some way to blame if she walked alone in a deserted area.'
I don't blame these AMP's for not reporting these attacks to the police as the whole experience for the rape victim is deeply traumatic and the last thing they need is bunch of cops with the same attitudes and prejudices as the students surveyed, bulldozing their way through and mishandling any investigation.
And these types sexual crimes are not just confined to the larger cities and towns of Wales, and support services...well there are none....not unless you travel to Liverpool or South Wales.
Victim Support? Ha! window dressing....Victim Support do not have the resources for the victims of sexual crime. Sphere: Related Content
