Really well stated. If as Christians and conservatives, we cannot DEFEND the most vulnerable among us, but calling out those who have great harm, we really aren’t acting as Christians OR conservatives. We are no better than those who will vote, support, look the other way, because a “D” is after a name...

It is amazing that the abuse began as early as 2002 that we know of, and that Oprah Winfrey's producers knew about it in 2006, and yet they went ahead with putting their lives on national TV in 2008.

Jesus indeed will forgive him if he has truly asked Him for it. However I am not required to do so and neither are his sisters.

BULLSHIITE LADY!!!

First of all...Josh didn't sin AGAINST YOU.

There is nothing for YOU to "forgive" him over.

You are CHOOSING to hold an offense against him simply because you choose to be self righteous.

I don’t believe any of those children received any kind of counseling except to consult with church elders and send Josh out to work re-modeling houses with a family friend.

What you believe MEANS NOTHING. You weren't there. You don't know those involved. You know nothing.

You have a belief...AN OPINION...based on what you WANT to believe.

The father claims to control the girl’s lives restricting what they wear, where they go, who they “court” etc. under the pretense of protecting them but then allows a predator who lives under his roof to live with them. Does that not bother you?

I don't know what happened in that house. If I were in Jim Bob's shoes, first thing that happens is I pick him up by his neck and carry him out back. And I don't mean for a game of cards or paddycake.

After that... I don't know. Simply because...I don't.

I'd be scared.
More like terrified.

Smoking pot or cigarettes or shop lifting are "easy" things to handle.

I've watched 2 dads deal with it.
I don't know how I would.

The more you think about it, the worse it gets. Not only is the son a scumbag criminal, but the parents also fit the description. To allow this to happen to your little daughters, you have to be a low down sack of s***. This is on par with the meth head single mom letting her goat roper boyfriend have his way with her daughter.

I didn't even think about that.

When I was 14 I was a high school sophomore, I was shaving, I had a part time job at a warehouse stacking lumber and unloading trucks. I was probably about 5'10" and 160lbs. I rode the subway by myself.

I wasn't crawling into cribs at night.

Some people on this thread are clearly disturbed.

Certainly questionable situations. I have no patience for people that do non-consent sex/touching to: kids, vulnerable adults, and animals.

It adds a painful dynamic when it’s a family member.

“Do you know exactly what happened? Or are you casting stones?”

No need to cast stones as the perp has admitted that he molested kids.

I don’t believe that I have seen a TLC official comment yet.

BUT, the Duggars should end the show themselves, NOW.

I assume that since this has come out, the Arkansas Child Protective Services has been called and they will make a visit to the household.

Did Jim Bob and Michelle not even think this would come out when Jim Bob ran for Congress?

I try to not post embarrassing things or make a fool of myself on FR so I don’t embarrass my kids.

I just read the facebook posting and the parents admit it.They are sing songing this.It’s over.Be careful who you take your picture with.Twitter is showing pictures of Josh with Santorum but of course they lied to him too.They lied to everyone.Sick stuff and money hungry.

Just in time for the Daily Mail and other sites to POST those pictures as to associate Rick Perry, Ted Cruz, Santorum with something that they had no part in.

2006 (police report) until now. Amazing it didn’t come out sooner.

I’ll tell you what i would NOT do under those circumstances. I would not sign a television contract that would put my family on display for all the world to see. The father HAD to know this would come out eventually. He clearly chose money over protecting his family from this kind of scrutiny.

Not shocked that the LGBT hate are posting on the very pages of at least one girl Duggar that was certainly a victim.

Hateful

“First of all...Josh didn’t sin AGAINST YOU.”

Well of course he did. He committed a crime. A crime is an offense against society and should be punished. Indeed we have a justice system that delivers judgement and punishment against these types of crimes. Ever serve on a jury?

When one commits a crime they have offended all of society. It is our duty to protect those that cannot speak for themselves nor protect themselves such as children.

I do know most of what happened as I have read the police reports, the family has also admitted it as has Josh. So I think I know enough.

You seem very emotional over this. In fact so emotional that you can’t seem to restrain yourself from personally attacking people here. Keep in mind, there are those commenting here who have been victims of this type of crime and are not acting as irrationally as you seem to be. Ponder that awhile.

Thank you a thousand times a thousand.

Excusing his behavior repeatedly, as his parents did, led to more sin and more anguish.

Even today, their statement and his is all about how he’s okay now.

Little mention of his victims. They didn’t matter then and they don’t matter now.

People who try to equivocate and ask, “But what about ___” or “Yeah, but ___ did it first” are a huge part of the problem.

Conservatives are supposed to be responsible. They do not shirk or pawn off blame. They stand tall for right and don’t defend wrong.

America’s lead lesbian, Oprah Winfrey, was the one to make a big deal of this.

I’m certainly no fan of Oprah Winfrey- never was - never will be, but she was, not as far as I know, the one to bring this to the world’s attention, she didn’t break this story to the public, it was the tabloid InTouch Magazine. But somewhat to her “credit”, when the Duggar family was scheduled to appear on her show in 2006, after a show staffer received an email about the alleged abuse and it was brought it to her attention, she cancelled their appearance on the show and turned the email over to the authorities for investigation. And given Josh’s now public confession/admission, his parents also admitting that it happened and Josh Duggar’s subsequent termination from the Family Research Council, you can’t say it was a false allegation or a smear job.

However Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar and their church elders evidently never would have reported it to the police themselves had not a concerned person with knowledge of the incidents done so. http://www.tmz.com/2015/05/22/oprah-cancels-josh-duggar-molestation-chicago-taping-19-kids-and-counting/

Few 14 year old boys in America have not touched a girls genitals unintentionally or intentionally.

Sure. Nearly all 14 year old boys have sneaked into the bedroom of their sleeping younger sisters and put their hands up inside their sister’s nightgowns and fondled their genitals, mostly this is completely “unintentional” / s
