How to get a pass as a child molester.
The War Department has let me know that at times I'm a little thin skinned and paranoid about perceived anti-Catholicism. She's right, no argument there, guilty as charged.
But what's that old joke about even paranoids have enemies?
This quote pretty much nails it, “If there were a law that said Catholic teachers should get immunity from a bill that makes it easier to sue them for child sex abuse cases, there would be screaming and yelling the likes of which we’ve never heard before. But when public school teachers get the green light, all is well in the bowels of the legislature......"
FWIW, I've known Catholic priests all of my life. Some of them were flaming idiots that should have become Trappist Monks who would never have contact with the public at large. When I say they were incompetent I'm talking on the order of not being able to pour piss out of a boot unless the instructions were upside down on the heel. But none of them were child molesters/rapists. Wish I could say the same about my public school teachers, the assistant football coach at my high school was dipping his wick into one of the cheerleaders about the same time a track coach got busted for supplying marijuana to some sophomore girls. Real role models!
But going by the news media child molestation is mostly a problem with the Church of Rome.
Noted!
