Just realised how easy it is to be prejudiced

I don’t think it is prejudice either, it is probably more to do with statistical likelihood.

Not for one second have I ever thought Madeleine’s parents were involved, I thought that was very much a minority opinion rather than a widespread one.

I never thought Madeleines’ parents did it as it didn’t add up at all.

Indeed.

In a similar vein, I have no trust for bald-headed English people who dress all in black. Nor most South Africans.

A lifetime of watching Hollywood movies have taught me who the bad people are.

I wouldn’t regard that as prejudice either... just an educated guess at a tv programme...

We do something very similar at work and it also involves stereotyping. I always find it very interesting.

The first program where the case of the West Memphis Three first came to light is called Paradise Lost. You'll watch the first 30 minutes and be absolutely convinced it was one of the step dad's. It's everyone's first reaction when watching it. As it turns out he has absolutely nothing to do with it. It's a sad fact that it often turns out to be a family member. It's never been proved in this case but it is more than likely a family member responsible just not the one everyone thought at first. In regards to West Memphis watch.

Paradise Lost 1,2 and 3
West Of Memphis
The Forgotten West Memphis 3.

Such a sad horrible affair.
