Unknown, stop talking to yourself you’re scaring the children!
Well,watch the newspaper and see if indeed the truth will come out……if you’ve ever been with a child that has been molested in any form ….you will quickly see how a person can respond to these things angrily or hastily……..yes,they are innocent until proven guilty……..but they need no pity until they are proven not guilty…….and then when they are proven guilty…..may GOD have mercy on their souls……… the pity lies with the child……..
Okay, that November 20th comment can be deleted. The comment violates this site’s rules, as numbered and quoted below:
1) Be Nice. No comments that slander another, no racism, no sexism, no personal attacks. ….self evident.
3) No Libel. That’s saying something is not true about someone. Don’t do it.
…..These people are innocent until proven guilty. Even the commenter could be arrested on hearsay and charged, and be innocent. We all need to realize that anyone charged with a sex offense OR child abuse will most often have their life destroyed by the community’s response EVEN IF PROVEN INNOCENT. That’s wrong.
Even if they’re guilty, it’s just a matter of cease the court’s duty to cause cease and desist and protect. Let them do time and remove the child so that the system can (possibly) neglect them via foster care. Ain’t life grand? It takes a low life to call someone a low life.
Good Job in catching these low life son of you know what!
