So what would you do--make it impossible to convict for crimes against children? Would that cheer you up?

Yes, of course that's what I was talking about. Also making it impossible to convict any person of any crime. This is the studied opinion I have reached after years of experience and contemplation and have expressed here.

Now that we've gotten that silliness out of the way, I invite you to consider how child sex abuse cases are often different from other types of crimes, in terms of lack of credible evidence and high emotional charge. I also invite you to consider how easily the government can slip into the lives of law abiding citizens and completely disrupt families on the the flimsiest of excuses. In my experience the system has been designed to make a fair and accurate resolution of these cases exceedingly difficult simply because the process is UN-balanced.
