    I haven't seen much evidence of hatred towards the McCanns. Most of the posters who criticise the McCanns simply have a desire to see justice being done for this poor girl. This has nothing to do with the Portuguese authorities.

    That's a bit harsh, isn't it?

    I believe that there are people who wish to see the McCanns brought to "justice", and that their definition of justice or the guilt of the McCanns is incorrect. I can quite see how people were persecuted many years ago, because some were convinced they were witches, etc etc.

    I wouldn't go so far as to accuse anyone of paedophilia - even subconsciously.

    It's called obsession ...

    Edit: It depends on what you consider hatred. Most of the comments are nasty, but yes, I have seen posts asking people to go to the airport to meet the McCanns, and that I consider is evil. But most aren't that unbalanced.

    I think some people do have an irrational and vehement hatred against the McCanns which is not only unhealthy but uncalled for.

    The McCanns have brought their case into the light of public scrutiny in doing such they have brought a weight upon them and now they want to fight the whole population. First they want center stage then they want to direct the investigation then they want legal rights to their side of the story and their side remains the focus and still their child is gone, they want to pick and choose , fine, they want to threaten others with law suits not such a good idea. They want to be in control of the investigation totally and leaving out any other opinions or theories. If they would have kept a watchful eye upon their child all of us would not have been drawn into the search for Maddie. They appear to be somewhat ungrateful and very selective.
