  1. "Some people might ask "Why didn't you do anything?"" Because a 13 year old knows NOTHING. Because they're insecure, powerless, controllable, especially once free of the protection of family. I get annoyed when I learn of grown women allowing themselves to be raped (yes there can be emotional control there as well but they at least have size and experience on their side), but little kids this age? They have no chance, especially so isolated. Repugnant the way that the adults in this case repeatedly failed these kids. Especially Zane. He was taught by the system that the powerful can do whatever they want to children with impunity, then he died for that.

  2. Corbin's ambivalence reflects the feelings of any reasonably intelligent British voter. This was a low information, high alarmist campaign on both sides, and ultimately, it was perhaps the element of British society to whom we least want to give a voice that swung the pendulum against the Remainers.

  3. The more I learn about America, the more I despise it. Why would anyone in their right mind aspire to go there any more?

  4. The only people I feel sorry for are the workers who were enslaved and made dependent. If the whole disgusting industry collapsed right now, I wouldn't shed a tear, except for them.
