I'm concerned that Mr.Devlin's attorney will find a court with a "rehab" judge that will have him managing a Pizza place in Vermont,Colorado,New York,or California before October.
If O'Reilly (champion of molested kids) throws out "Stockholm" syndrome in his "no spin" zone, it's beginning to sicken me already.
Why didn't the "4 day victim" call for help, or run down to the 24/7 animal hospital, or other businesses or residences and get professional assistance? We are told the door wasn't locked & the phone worked.The TV was showing amber alert 24/7 and he knew he was the reason! He could have yelled through those thin apartment walls even.
WHY DIDN"T HE?
Did he"like"his abductor just like the other boy possibly did?
An average defense attorney will get him off. A good one will do it with compensation and an apology from the State! Re-union time again soon. Sausage, pepperoni, or just a plain cheese?!

Martin Amis " the most depressing thing was the sight of middle class white demonstrators last august waddling around under placards saying. We are all Hizbollah Now. make the most of being hizbollah while you can. As its leader Hasan Nasrallah famousley advised the west: we dont want anything from you, we just want to eliminate you. Similary when i went on question time the other week a woman in the audience, her voice quavering with self rightesnouss presented the following argument; since it was America that supported Osama Bin laden when he was fighting the russians the US armed forces in response to September the 11th should be dropping bombs on themselves. And the audience applauded. It is quite an achievement. People of liberal sympathies stupified by relativisim have become the apoligists for a creedal wave that is racist, misogynist, homophobic, imperialist and genocidial. To put it another way they are up the **** of those that want them dead.

Seems like it is similar to Iraq:
-weapons of mass destruction
-dictator cruel to the masses
----but no oil.

It appears he is looking at Iran. Are we just a hired hand doing Iseral's dirty work?

His incompetence led to the Ayatollah Khomenei in Iran and the marxist Sandinistas in Nicaragua. His approval rating was 21% in 1980. Did I mention Iran hostage crisis, double digit inflation, gas rationing?

Why oh why oh why is the Great British public showing it's total lack of intelligence by watching that god-awful programme, Big Brother? It's just hype and simply bollock$, always has been.

Why do people become so obsessed about it? I watched it for about five minutes, when it was first shown, and thought "what a total pile of shite". Just can't see the fasination with it, and hope that someone could tell me exactly what it is that makes it such compulsive viewing. In my mind, it's just a showcase for desperate individuals to try and get themselves in the limelight.

Is it just another manifestation of "celeb fever" where you (not me) can fawn over these suckers and give them a nice big ego massage and give loadsof minety to teh producers by texting/phoning in?

These number were just released by the U.N. A- U.S. sponsered agency ran by the United States....so the numbers are probably higher and they said civilian deaths (CIVILIANS ARE INNOCENT PEPLE BY DEFINITION) not terrorist or military leaders they were people like our children and wives not our soldiers they were not trained warriors...they were innocent children..women and yes men too...

In "The Miracle in Missouri,"why is it that every major network spins this story so that the 4+ year victim of this multiple abduction cradles almost 100% of the story line. The 4 day "victim" wasn't willing or able to contact "help" either, even though he is a straight "A" student, scout, and has scored high on the ACT test?
Both were left alone in the apartment in a very non- threatening neighborhood, ( I know it as I lived in Kirkwood / Glendale for years), had access to telephones, and could come & go at will as their abductor was gone a lot.

America has caused more death in Iraq then the terrorists have ever.
The U.N. now says that over 30,000 died last year alone...under Sadam less then 6,000 civilians died in his last two years combined..terrorist have killed less then 10,000 people so who are the real terrorists?

I personally think we should leave him & his family the heck alone, It is none of our business at all......He is going to have enough to deal with as it is, I am sure the kid has been to hel* & back...
He does NOT owe us a darn thing, we were so close to him & no one reconized him, NO one helped him, & NO ONE has the right to judge him.. He did what he had to do to survive, To keep living, & I am so sorry for him & his family, SOOOO many people saw this kid everyday & did nothing, Nothing at all to help him & I feel so bad for that, Him or his family do NOT owe the public anything at all... He should not have to explain why he did what he did to anyone but his parnets, & only god knows what this devlin guy told him, Poor kid, I hope everyone including the media leaves him alone, so he can try his hardest to put this behind him & try to have a half way normal life..................
