Many people. That is, indeed, a large part of the problem...

What's the best thing to say to a young girl who recently lost her mother?

She needs to get her teeth fixed. Dead mother or not it's not excuse to have bad teeth.

Karen Mathews released.

I suppose it's a matter of opinion if this woman deserves any "compassion" but they're having a field day in the moderated comments.

Mailtard... logic... fail.

what's the point of ranting about the cost to the taxpayer of protecting someone like Karen Matthews, and then exhibiting all the hate towards her which makes the protection necessary?

Alas, to a Mailtard that's perfectly logical. Deny protection to her = vigilantes can get to her and kill her = win/win situation for those bloodthirsty wankers.

Or perhaps safety equipment is expensive and they have families to support?

if a traffic warden says their job is dangerous he should be dragged into the street and beaten up and then made to spend a day working there

Violence towards traffic wardens? Weird. Ok, for example, imagine a traffic warden complains their job is dangerous then Phillip sends them to do this job, to see what real danger is. Why beat them up before they go?

Chinese 'Nick Leeson' rogue trader sentenced to death after £10m fund scam

Only three comments as of the time of writing but with all the predictability of the sun rising in the east.

I'm starting to really admire the Chinese. I bet they don't get as many repeat offenders as we do in the UK.

Proper journalism in the MoS! A powerful report from Sudan suggesting that the repressive government is buying weapons made up of bits and bobs sold on from the West:

Why should we worry (like George Clooney) about war crimes in Sudan? Because the weapons used were made closer to home than you might think

See also the Sun's campaign against Maxine Carr. One day announcing where they think she might live and the next moaning about the protection.
