Predator 2

Take your mind off child sex for two minutes 10:17, and maybe look up the word predator, it applies in lots of situations."
When used in the context of child safety, what other situations do you mean? You introduced the word ''predator'', Ros, then leave this very rude reply to a perfectly reasonable observation. On the one hand you are saying "there are predators everywhere" and on the other you are dismissing the official estimate because 'you are not buying it'

Everything is black and white for you 08:56, you seem incapable of holding two seemingly contradictory statements in your head at any one time.
I was using predator in the broader sense, the clue was in 'take your mind of child sex'.
Predators come in many guises 08:56, users, liars, manipulators, con-artists, psychopaths who suck the life out of you to make themselves feel better. All predators of the non child sex variety, all potential dangers to our children, not just in childhood but for the rest of their lives."
Fascinating. Except you are the one who brought up 'child sex' actually; I am assuming you were in fact referring to child sexual abuse.
So basically you are now applying the term ''predator'' to anyone who isn't very nice. The term actually means those who exploit others, so now that we've got that sorted out, and given that you have been provided with data on the prevalence of Child Sexual Abuse from several published, robust sources, can you now please tell us what the real figure for ''active paedophiles' is in the UK, seeing as you are not buying the expert's data?
