(AP) A man who for 12 years served as president of the Virginia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union was sentenced to seven years in prison for downloading what authorities said was some of the "most abhorrent" child pornography they have ever seen.

Another closet queer pedophile member of the ACLU removed from the pervert defenders. The GLBT alliance is devastated.

One of the images Tierney was in possession of showed a little girl tied up and screaming while being violently raped.

May the Wrath of the God of Heaven Fall Upon All who Do those Hellish Things to Children, and Burn them Up Forever.

I believe that would be Mrs. Rust-Tierney if I have decoded ACLU speak and naming conventions.

I read somewhere that the lovely hyphenated couple has kids. Show the stuff to them and then let dad explain himself. Except its a crime to show that stuff to kids.

Yeah, well, it could have been worse. He could have been caught tapping his foot in a public men’s room. /s

I guess he thought he could get himself off.

Oh, I'm sure he did that, many times, in front of the computer.

The Washington Post headline on this was a little coy about the ACLU perv: “Man get 7 years in child porn case.”

I wonder what the headline would have been for a pastor of a comparably sized congregation busted for the same filth?
