The <real name removed: editor> affair
editor said:
I see that the fact that you've been repeatedly been told that you don't know the full story behind that particular
COMPLETELY UNRELATED story hasn't stop you rustling up another of your exciting "what really happened' fantasies.
Or do you think all the mods were "in on it" too?
Let's set the record straight for once and all. It's not a conspiracy to make a appalling mistake, and that's what happened here editor.
I can only go on what is in front of me. However, in the case of <real name removed: editor>, there is enough to firmly conclude that she was telling the truth.
It is notable how flawed the account of eyewitnesses at Stockwell were. For instance, we had Mark Whitby describing an Asian guy with a padded coat who acted like cornered fox receiving five shots. Another chap described two shots and a bomb belt. Many others claimed to have see him jump the barriers.
Everyone got it wrong. With the notable of one witness: <real name removed: editor>, who described 'at least ten shots' in her statement to the IPCC. This extraordinary amount was certainly not public information. We now know from that coroner's report that there were eleven shots in all. There is simply no way she could have known this, unless she was there.
On this fact alone we can conclude that <real name removed: editor> was genuine, and that is what I did. I then watched as all the reasons which anyone was willing to give that she was not crumbled. We had the 'lack of stairs at Stockwell' - there were stairs. Some people thought there was some discrepancy with the number of shots - there wasn't, her account of the number of shots was staggeringly accurate.
Stobart Spotter had another reason - her husband (a policeman) reckoned that the IPCC never give out copies of statements, as <real name removed: editor> claimed to have received. This was erroneous. I believe you missed the thread where we worked all this out, editor -
here's the Guardian article from when she went to the press with her copy.
I have since met Sue, she's perfectly normal, in fact far more normal than most urbanites. Like bk, she has needed counselling to get over the traumatic events that day. A big issue for her during that counselling was the invalidation of her experience that she received here - she came to urban as a way of helping get over it. As badger kitten repeatedly informs us, it's not nice to go through something like that and then be told that it never happened - although no-one here is saying that to her.
Soon after getting booted off here she offered to show me her copy of the IPCC statement. She also offered to take me to the Stockwell nursery where she had to recover immediately after the shooting. I needed neither.
I don't know what else you have editor, I suspect you may be referring to the IPCC statement thing from Stobart. But whatever, it is your information that is mistaken and not Sue Thomason's account. On the Guardian article thread, moderators such as miss minnie appeared to distance themselves from the affair. It only seems to be you that still maintains the right thing was done. Which it wasn't.
Of course, if you do have some staggering information of relevance here, you are duty bound to report it to the IPCC, and there should be no reason why should be able to confirm here that you have so done.
Of course, the line
'I know what I am doing because I have secret information which you don't know about' was Tony Blair's too, and it took us to war with Iraq.
Sue T. has a look at this thread. She says;
"I had a look. How can you stand to spend any of your precious life on there?! They are the most hideous bunch of people I've ever come across in my entire life and even just reading that thread made me feel tense and stressed - and not even the bits about me!
...No wonder they argue with you, you're like a nurse in a mental hospital.
...next time something bad happens to me - if it does - I'll stick with friends and not worry about boring them and not turn to cyber freaks."
I'm beginning to wonder about her comment. I really love urban, it's been good to me. But well certainly, if urban75 is to turn into the 'badger kitten show'...
