I'm sure the Daily Mail has excellent journalists which aren't idiots, but this man doesn't seem to be one of them.

Okay, yes, so I'm biased. Sue me :p.

He's written an article on the murdered prostitutes in Ipswich, and thinks that being strangled to death is an occupational hazard for prostitutes.

"That doesn't make it justifiable homicide, but in the scheme of things the deaths of these five women is no great loss.

They weren't going to discover a cure for cancer or embark on missionary work in Darfur. The only kind of missionary position they undertook was in the back seat of a car."

He's got 80 reader comments already, ranging from "On form as usual John,keep writing for the silent majority." to "What a sad commentary. You diminish the loss of these young women because of their lifestyle ? What a LITTLE mind you have!"

So... plenty of wank! Over dead prostitutes! How... appropriate.

To you their deaths may not have been a great loss, but it was to their families.

o... plenty of wank! Over dead prostitutes! How... appropriate

Well, the Green River Killer would go back and have sex with the bodies of the prostitutes he killed.

Jesus, I thought professional writers were discouraged from taking cheap shots.

When I read a comment that said he was 'a shining example of humanity!', it occurred to me they may not be being sarcastic. I gagged a little.

Then I read this one, and the complete appropriateness of it made it all better:

BRAINS EVERYWHERE.

Urgh. How hard is it to have compassion for people despite (what you may believe to be) their questionable choices in life? And No one with a shred of humanity would wish upon them their ghastly lives and horrible deaths doesn't count.

Is it so much to hope that this man would have a shred of human decency, of simple sympathy for women who led difficult lives and were then murdered by a monster? Or their families? Or that he could take his judgemental head out of his ass and use for something more useful - perhaps as a doorstop or bookend.

My faith in humanity dies inch by painful inch.

Well, while I'm inclied to agree that getting horribbly murdered is an occupationational hazard for the street walking type prostitute, um, those were human beings. They were someone's daughters and sisters and aunties and possibly even mothers. WTF kind of animal would say that their death was no big loss? Well, obviously that dude. I'm sure his mother is proud.

When I read something like this, I have to wonder if say, a prostitute had snapped and started offing johns, whether people would be saying "eh, scum of the earth who paid for sex, world's better off really" or "those poor men, lured to their deaths by that monster, and just think of their families."

Also, I seriously doubt that you, Mr. Littlejohn, are going to cure cancer or toddle off to Darfur to lend a hand. So by that logic, if someone set you on fire with their mind, you had it coming, right? (oh, if only.)

Did not need to see this right after dinner. Reminds me of that Latin study partner of mine who seemed to think that the testimony of prostitutes shouldn't be trusted as much as that of less promiscuous women. I don't study with her anymore.

What about Harriet Harman wanting to criminalise men who pay for sex, as happens in Sweden? With thousands of prostitutes, dominatrixes, and transsexuals happily selling their services in Britain via the internet, legally and without incident, will Harmans' puritanical opinion be unpopular?


Er...a transexual is something a bit different, miss.
