So can we have the RIP Jimmy Saville thread removed please?

I didn't post in it but some who did may now be embarrassed by it.

Well do you know, I find it embarrassing, why?

We used to sit there with our kids, he used to do good deed's make dreams come true.

If he is guilty then the people that covered it up are far more guilty.

I still want to think of him as strange but generous. Any cover up of any deed he did, surely needs exposure not of any act's by him but those that covered up those acts!

Surely they can't all be dead?
:(

It's a shame you can't see the deleted comments in that thread - Groove was right about something for once even if he was only trying to cause trouble.

This is his deleted comment:

He was an idiot in a way - making stupid noises and so on, but that was viewed as entertainment.

I saw abuse in Accrington back in the 70's but I think perhaps then in the 60's and 70's it was more acceptable in society but now it's not. For example back in those times didn't people used to pinch womens rears and it was accepted? Ok that's not rape but it's still something that was done then but now would bring heavy consequences.

Not that I'm condoning abuse in any form - but things have changed.

Maybe Savile thought that because he did good things for charity and thought that because of that he was entitled to do what it's alleged he did.

(now then, now then hows about that then) i've found the thread at last :)
nonce or witch hunt? i'd have to say nonce
The Jimmy Savile case of child abuse isn't proven yet,but on this1 i'd say there's no smoke without fire and it wouldnt suprise me if the BBC covered up his alledged crimes (just my opinion)

I cannot for the life of me, understand why nurses appear to have been complicit in these alleged abuse cases.
If I had seen what some nurses are alleged to have seen, I would have been collecting evidence and ringing the police myself. Blow the fact that he was a fundraiser.

You didn't find it before because KestrelX spelled Saville as Savile.

If you are websearching the topic you will also find it under - Sa-VILE on some forums:D

What ever it's not nice to see someone ripped to pieces like this. I mean today they said on the news that he gropped a girl who'd just had an operation while she was lying on a stretcher! I mean whether he did it or not - it's horid thing to say. Why didn't they complain before? They even said nurses told children to "pretend to be asleep!" when he was there in order not to be groped.

Why say this now and not back then?:confused:

To have your grave stone taken down and broken into pieces even before a trial? I'd have thought they'd have kept it in storage until after an investigation!

Some were believed BUT -
Saville knew of, and likely supplied, underage victims to people who had the power to suppress it.

The correct spelling is Savile not Saville. And that's all I wish to say on the subject.
