Whilst i agree that these two individuals were doing nothign to harm the children involved and that they were not performoing anything indecent and yes all concerned were fully dressed....i would also say that the mere fact that a person convicted of sexual abuse to a minor/peadophilia should not be allowed anywhere near ANY CHILD! whether fully dressed or not.
woudl you allow your goldfish to swim with pirhana's because they had just been fed? of course not, it is incredibly dangerous.
for thos of you who think this was completly innocent, what exactly do you think the purpose of tis video was? do you honestly beleive they will be takng it home as a momento of their day out??
Surely there is no one on this earth so naive.
Of course this is sensationalism by the NOTW but it all builds public opinion and pubic outrage which will, eventually ho;d enough wait hopefully to bring about a change in the law for perverts like this.
As for the possibility that the picture may have been re touched....the faces of both men can clearly be seen, no oubt they are named within the article ( i haven't seen it) so if the picture had been edited im sure we will hear of a huge libel case as we did when the Mirror printed dud pictures of the iraqi prisoners.
Having lived opposite the sarah Payne memorial park and having spoken to her mother Sara on many occasions i am fully behind sarah's law or any other initiative that allows my child to play freely as we did as children....not having to be kept to certain area's, that after todays pitcures are apparantly no longer safe.!
Anyone who thinks that two convicted peadophiles video taping young children in a park is nothing for a "true journalist" to writte about.....let them babysit your kids!
