A bit in the minority here.

That such abuse exists, everywhere, is not at issue and it should be stopped.

However, having been the father of three children, I cannot buy into this video as it is presented. The photos of the child to me do not represent a child of one years age in my opinion. I support stopping child abuse whether as portrayed here or as practiced in many countries where children are sold into slavery or "marriage" or whatever, but at least keep it honest.

Even the "enhanced" photos of the child at the end of the video do not match the photos of the "featured" child.

Just one man's observations.

Bill

Have to agree. The presenter sure has a lot of details and a full story to go with. And how would one not immediatley related to the story have these animated images, such a thing would only be made for a court case.

As I said, people have weird internet hobbies these days, in a world all about 'hits', 'likes' and 'post counts'...

But a short search on google, it appears the story is in fact true.

Hi d:
Thanks for the extra link.

I should say that I did not want to give the impression that this did not happen, it obviously did, but merely wanted to say I think the first vid
seemed a bit overdone, sort of artistic license or photoshop license maybe.

Rather like the PSA video posted a little earlier. A mixture of the real and the not so real.

No we're on the same heading here, I thought the first video was a little odd aswell.

I'm not going to watch it. I know I could not handle it.

That's why I put the warning... I don't want to upset anyone... Just try to keep us as a collective more aware...

Anger is not the emotions to use here, I see people who do this kind of stuff daily. I made a promise to stop looking up the crimes the inmates I supervise has done, it would honestly make me sick and make me want to go out of my way to hurt them and or eliminate them forever.

RIP Peter, Im sure there was a place for you, some place very special and that we will see you very soon.
