Country Flags for threads

[Feckless]

An idea I had. There are a lot of threads on false rape allegations. It seems that Frostboy (kudos) comes up with 3-5 cases on a daily basis. Also on a global basis so I find it sometimes hard to find out where in the (english-speaking) world said incidents happen. If a user could tag a thread with a country flag you could easily see where that happened.

I came up with the idea because I thought of rape statistics. They seem heavily fake when bred up by feminists. It seems to me that false rape claims are also in those rape statistics as "rapes that didn´t make it to court" and a lot of people think about those cases as rapes that did happen but that did not get punished -> more ammo for the feminists. Perhabs we could use articles of false rape claimes to determine some numbers for ourselves. Example if we see that lets say in England there were xyz articles about false rape claims in a certain time frame we could eventually disprove such "2% of all rapes are false allegations" with our own evidence which is easily accessible for anyone.

I sometimes miss sources where there are cold hard facts so we could here produce them ourselves. It probably won´t work as those cases are the tip of the iceberg and there are eventually a whole lot of real rape cases but I really am not sure. What do you think?

You know, I'd been thinking very similar myself. I was thinking of just using the tag system that's already in place, so when a person clicks "UK" they're presented with a list of UK pertinent threads.

It would require unique coding to make it pertinent to false rape allegations only though, and although I know a bit of PHP, I'm not sure it would be as easy as I think it would be.

Hm it already works good idea:


Search: Tag: Uk ; Forum: False Allegations and child forums Showing results 1 to 14 of 14


So it would just need one hard-working admin to re-tag a lot of threads and one hard-working researcher to count those threads and we can produce numbers we can proove. Great. Any volunteers?

We could try to exchange the Uk tag with the Union Jack but that would only be mackle.
