Nope, I have no friends in there
(I hadn't looked at the actual page til now. Wow.)

MommaGee · 13/07/2017 09:19

I've got a few friends who added themselves but no pic changes, no poats9. I suspect lots of people joined in the early days and now just haunt deleted themselves.

How can people actually think going in and removing him is viable? Can't comment so had to settle for angry faces.

Are they proposing leaving him with a tube down his throat but unplugged so he can die in pain or pulling it out and killing him that way? Idiots.

I have one FB friend who is in the CA group. She's a former colleague, many years younger than me. Knowing her, she, erm, fits the demographic IYKWIM.

MommaGee · 13/07/2017 09:20

Also someone going along from CA to film everything that happens in court. Is that legal?
Really hope judge bans it if he can. Chris and Connie are going to be in a right state - they don't need that all over FB

kkkkaty123 · 13/07/2017 09:20

I like hope to think if they were they weren't part off the abuse. I dare not look tbh

ShatnersWig · 13/07/2017 09:21

Thinking about it, 61,000 people is approximately 0.1% of the population of the UK in normal maths. In Barmy speak, that, of course, equates to 10%....

The comparison to Auschwitz is so revolting I don't even know where to begin.

None of my friends are members, thank God.

Seems they have "lost" about 6,000 cultmembers in the last few days...

Rhodiolia · 13/07/2017 09:36

I have one friend who is in the CA group, but she hasn't changed her profile pic. She is also a Younique/Jamberry seller, so I am not surprised she is in there.

totallyliterally · 13/07/2017 09:36

The article linked earlier is really excellent.

Also quotes from Monday.

www.melaniephillips.com/the-hijacking-of-tragedy/

That Connie shouted 'wouldn't you give your child a 10% chance"

And the issue is yes we possibly would, if that 10% chance actually exists. But there has so far been any proof of that. (This is my thought and understanding)

And that is what today is about. Proving this 10% chance it could help

muckypup73 · 13/07/2017 09:36

Zoflorabore, I think perhaps people are seeing through it now.

redshoeblueshoe · 13/07/2017 09:37

ShatnersWig - in normal maths Grin

Lemonading · 13/07/2017 09:39

Shatner'sWig I have mentioned it before but the two people I know on there have had children removed by social services. Both are firm parental rights advocates, one of them literally believes that unless a child dies at their hands, parental rights should never be overridden. They are also a Freeman on the Land type.

[I am FB friends with one of them because their birth child, now an adult, asked me to keep an eye out]

I don't think they are representative of your average CA fan, mind you.

ShatnersWig · 13/07/2017 09:40

totally Except it isn't even a 10% chance...

flatbreads · 13/07/2017 09:40

Victoria BBC 1 is discussing right now.

PansyGiraffe · 13/07/2017 09:40

Looking at the Ronald McDonald houses link above, they have Amazon wishlists for very low-cost practical stuff (you can search on Amazon) - brushes, dish drainers, bath mats, party balloons.

flatbreads · 13/07/2017 09:41

How can this guy have the same condition as CG? He is a grown adult!

flatbreads · 13/07/2017 09:41

Oh sorry his son did and subsequently died.

totallyliterally · 13/07/2017 09:44

@ShatnersWig yes, from the forgives Connie quoted it isn't. But I wonder if the scientist people are using the 10% figure. Guess we will see very soon

totallyliterally · 13/07/2017 09:44

figures

Trampire · 13/07/2017 09:46

I'm glad I have no real life friends in the CA. At least no one who's said a thing about it.

Rhodiolia · 13/07/2017 09:48

This comment on CA has really upset me, it was written in response to another mum who decided to switch off her child's life support.

The other couple that experienced difficulties with their baby, most likely that they didn't have the strength or will power to fight. Charlie proves that they made possibly the wrong decision

They are really horrible people :(
