Perhaps I am fooled and only time will tell, but who is promoting sexual molestation? I am the first to call out those who parade their sin like Oprah Winfrey, Anderson Cooper, and Piers Morgan. But everything that those of us who have families of our own see in this case is a family that has done everything they can to deal with their son. He is now happily married with a successful family (so far). Once again, perhaps I am fooled, but it looks like success! Those who cannot (and will not) let this go are bordering on mental illness.


I could not disagree with you more. No one is promoting molestation, though covering it up like the Duggar parents isn’t fighting or preventing it in a known molester.

I have no idea what sins Oprah and the others have celebrated.

And you think success is The Molester Went On To Live The Good Life (and make baby girls to potentially molest)?? Nowhere in your success model is any consideration for the victims. Or for justice. Justice is a conservative virtue, which is why we feel as we do about ILLEGAL immigration. Only the statute of limitations keeps Josh Duggar from being a criminal. The victims of child molestation have problems that can last for life. Whatever they say on TV is what they have been told to say.

Think of the little boy dancer, Wade Robson (sp?). During the Michael Jackson moleststion trial, he testified FOR jackson. Said he had never molested him, and they were inseparable for years. That testimony may have even helped the jurors acquit. Now that jackson has been dead so long, Robson has admitted he lied, and Jackson abused him for years.

Victims are so hurt that they don’t know right from wrong, they can’t trust, they are lost and oversexualized and have a very hard time in life.

And happily married (one NEVER knows how good someone else’s marriage is) doesn’t mean anything. Molesters often have wives who have no idea their husbands prey on kids. I can think of several.

We cannot crow about “success” just because someone said it on TV.

What part of the legal system failed in this case?

The victims in this case have spoken publicly. Why are they not considered credible? Once again, perhaps I am wrong but I want to err on the side of love and forgiveness.
