Raum has told you that you are looking at the wrong place.
Right. Overlook all the thousands of cases of child sexual abuse on the right because Raum said so.
Your children, especially male white boys are more likely to be molested in schools than in churches.
They are more likely to be groomed in schools than in churches.
the data doesn’t agree with you. Refer to my earlier posts. Or keep lying to yourself

You are always bucking the wrong tree. Everything for you is right bad, trump bad.
if you’re bad you’re bad. I’m not the one doing all that stuff and making the news for it. And you can’t nag me into ignoring. If a democrat is found liable for sexual assault and runs for office, I won’t vote for them. I can’t say the same for you and that’s the fundamental difference between us.

If that will be all, move along then kiss

Your side champions porn,
This is an opinion only people like you share. And I don’t even get the relevance here.
a lot of 18 yo are in that industry. Start from there. 17 and 18yo are old enough to join the army, fight wars etc. So there is nuance to that.
yet they can’t drink alcohol and 17 year olds can’t vote. There’s your nuance

What's the age of a full blown adult?
legally 18.

So are you for grown adults meddling with 18 year olds? If yes what does that say about your random argument about 18 year olds in the porn industry. Because you’re all over the place. Are 18 year olds kids old enough to sleep with grown adults but too young for porn?

Because I think they are too young for both. Pick a stand

Anyone who sexualize or molest children deserved to be punished but don't make this a left vs right thing. You seem to only be interested in Republicans bad rather than the children being abused
Maybe you need to pay more attention before jumping midway into a conversation. Because I’ve literally said there are abusers on both sides. And this conversation is starting because you guys want to focus all the attention on “drag queens” while totally ignoring the staggering amount of child abuse cases emanating from the right and sadly from religious groups as well.

So this particular hypocrisy you’re trying to project onto me is yours not mine. It’s what I was calling out to begin with. Not everything is an argument. If you wanted to be on the side of people who truly want to protect kids, you would divest from supporting politicians who are sexual assaulters

You didn’t see me complain? I believe you’re blind or selective to what you choose to see because I literally just posted how disgusting it is that child marriage is still legal in many states when we need a federal ban so that it can be uniform in all states.

Your life dwells in being hypocritical and you can’t make me stop pointing it out. Log off if you don’t like it.

An 18 year old might be legally an adult but if they’re doing stuff with a full blown adult, that adult is a weirdo pervert too. They may not catch a charge but just know we’re looking and judging. It’s giving they would sleep with a 14 year old if it was legal too. Don’t try to give them a pass there.

bemeruca:
You talk about teenagers like some adults are not teenagers.

The complaint you made about a bill passed saying the Republicans are allowing child marriage is the same thing as this but they are adding more restrictions. I don't see you complaining about California


Your life now revolve around crying on anything the right does.

You are not okay with any of that. Clear your house first before you attempt to scold your neighbours about housekeeping. Charity begins at home.

It’s safe to say you have no idea who I am and you are assuming I’d be complaining about kids being sexually abused just because MAGA Republican politicians are doing it. Like you are projecting or something.

I would disown my own family members if they did that.
I would dissociate myself from my own blood relative for such behavior. What makes you think I’m only talking about it because of MAGA?

MAGA is being mentioned now because you guys chose to rally around sex’s abusing politicians and give them your support.

In the absence of maga, this is still my stance.

Unsurprising.

Meanwhile the streets are packed daily with people protesting his asinine policies and the media is hardly covering it.
Donald Trump’s net approval rating in 2025 has reached a shocking low, worse than any modern U.S. president in the last 70 years. Polls from CNN, FOX, Ipsos, NBC, and Quinnipiac University show Trump’s approval rating dropping from +7 in January to -2 in March, a sharp 9-point decline. while Trump is slightly better off than he was in 2017, he remains “underwater,” unlike any other president at this stage of their term.

there are multiple cases in the news of predatory doctors.

this is why standard practise today is for examinations to be under supervision, preferably with a family member in the room
They wanna act dumb. Let this be a Democrat bill saying kids privates should be examined without parent’s consent or presence and see how they will react to it.

I’m curious to know what doctor is going to be willing to put their reputation on the line for this nonsense.

Perverts won’t see anything wrong with it though so I’m not surprised they’re okay with this.

This doesn’t scream protect the kids.
During and after the 2016 presidential race, among the dozens of women who accused former president Donald Trump of being a sexual predator were several contestants in the 1997 Miss Teen USA pageant, who reported that he barged into their dressing room while girls as young as 15 were changing. (Trump allegedly told them, “Don’t worry, ladies, I’ve seen it all before.”)

His campaign denied the accusation, but CNN unearthed a 2005 Howard Stern interview where Trump bragged about walking into backstage dressing rooms at the pageants he ran.

The way Republicans set aside the vast array of sexual abuse charges against Trump and lined up behind him has been discussed so many times that there’s no real need to go over it again. The party’s response to Moore, meanwhile, was what you might describe as, well, semi-pathetic. To their credit, a number of elected Republicans called on Moore to exit the race or said they would vote for a write-in candidate, and the National Republican Senatorial Committee pulled its funding from his campaign.

The Republican National Committee did as well, at least briefly. But after Donald Trump decided to reendorse Moore, the RNC resumed its support of his candidacy, stating, “We stand with the president.”

When it came to Jordan, congressional Republicans simply circled the wagons. In 2018, then House Speaker Paul Ryan waved off demands for an ethics committee inquiry into whether Jordan was lying about his conduct as a wrestling coach, saying that the panel “​​investigates things that members do while they’re here, not things that happened a couple of decades ago when they weren’t in Congress.”

He then called Jordan “a man of honesty and a man of integrity.”

Later, in 2020, Jordan’s GOP colleagues selected him to become the top ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, which handles federal criminal legislation—including on issues such as sex trafficking and child pornography. Liz Cheney, then the No. 3 Republican in the House, said it was a “totally unified decision all around.”

This all unfolded in the face of credible allegations that Jordan not only knew about the abuse at Ohio State, but had responded to multiple students who told him about it with comments like “If he tried that on me, I would kill him.” By all accounts, Strauss’ behavior was an open secret. Six former wrestlers told CNN that they were personally present when Jordan heard misconduct complaints about the doctor. A former ref also filed a lawsuit alleging that he complained to Jordan and another coach after Strauss masturbated in front of him, and they merely responded, “Yeah, that’s Strauss.”

Pervy.

bemeruca:
Nothing wrong with the bill.

Republicans at the West Virginia Legislature passed a bill that would allow health care providers to “visually or physically examine a minor child” for the purpose of identifying their “biological sex” without the “consent of the child’s parent, guardian, or custodian.”

Yesterday, the West Virginia House of Delegates approved an amendment from Del. J.B. Akers (R) to allow a child’s “treating health care provider” to examine a child’s genitals without the consent of their parents. The amendment states that only the treating health care provider can perform such examinations without the parents’ consent. The amendment does not mention adults, and therefore presumably they could be forced to undergo such examinations by anyone.

The focus of anti child and women abuse then should be lasered on the entertainment industry
thanks for proving my point. Despite the thousands of reports of child abuse from the religious communities , you want the focus to be lasered on the entertainment industry. If that’s not the summary of what I’m saying, I don’t know what is.

There are people who make music openly about women abuse including Eminem who was brought to campaign for the democrats last election
You voted for an actual rapist and woman abuser yet somehow that’s equivalent to an artist who makes adult music performing at a Democrat rally?. You guys really have existed for far too long in this bubble where you think your atrocities are somehow equivalent to others’ not being stellar. It should have been nipped in the bud honestly

How would a party be against a law that says you cannot teach children under 9yrs about sexuality without parental consent
Idk seems to me like teaching sex education is far healthier than rummaging in children’s underwear to see what type of genitals they have. I learned sex education in primary school in Nigeria and my parents didn’t have to provide consent. It was a normal part of education.
What is not normal is being obsessed about what genital.ia kids are walking around with. Who thinks such thoughts?

And somehow you would still manage to hold the individual who did the crime personally responsible instead of painting the whole community as a community of child abusers. I wonder why you guys can’t find that same courtesy when talking about others. Who by the way have been statistically doing less abusing. 🤔

Should I conversely ask you where is your outrage for entertainment industry molesters?
Erm excuse me? Pls just say you don’t know who you are talking with and I’ll be all too happy to show you. I’m nothing if not a walking bag of outrage for any and all child abusers. And that’s why the hypocrisy of the right miffs me. You guys talk so much about protecting the kids but your actions fall flat each time. If any other community had this number of child abuse reports, we would demand they stop existing all together.

Leftist don’t rally behind accused child abusers. They get canceled and quickly too. The kids are not asked why they were there. The moms are not shamed for not keeping a tighter leash on their kids. And we don’t ask what they were wearing. Can’t say the same for y’all though.

Despite all the news and data about churches and child molestation you still go to a church and still take your kids

Why do you keep attending a gathering that you believe is dangerous to you and to your kids?

If you genuinely believe that the church is dangerous you won't allow your kids a mile close
You might not have seen the post I responded to basil. I think going to church has its benefits. Lots of benefits actually that I don’t care to go into details here on this thread. So if I can keep my eye on my kids the whole time, they can get some of those benefits and I can keep them safe as well.

And of course there are other ways of keeping them safer in church like not letting them go for mid week activities where parents are not there. No Overnight youth church camps. No pastors having unfettered access to your kids etc. these are all avenues via which those things can happen under your nose and you won’t be aware.

I don’t think taking this into the ad hominem angle is going to do anything to change the statistics of the abuse coming out from the church community. I’m not making those numbers up. The predatory adults abusing children are. So maybe less focus on me and more on calling them out the way you guys harp on others.

Instead of pretending it’s not unsafe, we can adopt the “no pervert will safe among us” mindset so that the church can truly be the safe space we teach that it is.

You want to tell is you have the same level of worry if your teenager says I'm going to a church program vs I'm going to a RKelly or rock concert?
As a matter of fact, I have in the past and will not hesitate in the future to stop going to any church that gives me the slightest of icks.

Yes I will have the same level of worry actually if my child is going to a church program by themselves as if they were going to concert by themselves. A lot of opportunities for weird adults to swoop in because they’re alone without adult supervision.

Like I said, perception.

But the facts are showing us our perceptions are wrong. So instead of digging in our heels and keep lying to ourselves that religious leaders are safer than any other group of people, we should apply the same precautions we would around others to them.

So if you wanna be vocal about kids being in danger around industry folks or rainbow people or “leftists”, keep the same energy with right wing religious leaders. Otherwise it all falls apart as hypocritical under the tiniest scrutiny .

raumdeuter:
Why do you trust religious leaders but don't trust entertainers? That's because you rightly expect that they are less safe with entertainers who already make products to promote sex and drugs

Which means you won't be shocked if an entertaner harrass a minor, half their products are tagged PG and not suited for minors

Have you shown the stats in the entertainment industry? Do you know how many people were victims of RKelly, Diddy or how many minors fled home and followed rock artistes?

Thank you. That is no reason to abandon going to church though. What comes from the mouth of the preacher is supposed to the holy spirit speaking through the servant .
As long as I don't know their personal lives, I'll listen to a preacher . I'm not preaching to you idon't get me wrong.
As I pointed out many of the sick perverts hide in churches.
At the same time there is more exposure of them by the left. This has obviously resulted in declining numbers of church goers. Don't forget that the left has a near monopoly of media, the clergy cases are amplified in comparison to the other faith.
Let me dig up my own data , I'll leave this open.
Well I never said anyone should stop going to church. I go to church. I volunteer in the kid’s ministry as well so I can keep an eye on my kids. As much as I dislike when people make being religious their whole personality, I recognize that it has its benefits. But that’s an opinion I can go into more details in the religion section.

What I’m saying is that it is hypocritical to be constantly loud about potential child abusers in the rainbow community; most times without proof. while harboring and covering up for far worse and proven abusers in the religious community. Even more egregious when we vote them into power because they align with our party.

Since we agree that many sick perverts hide in the church, you should be asking yourself why. Personally I know why. I know it’s because they recognize that a church community is one where trust is high. They can fly under the radar undetected for long.

When they do get caught (in more cases than not) they’ll “confess”, be forgiven, their victim will be guilted into forgiving them and everyone carries on like it never happened. They wouldn’t be able to hide in the religious community if such lax attitudes around child sex abuse weren’t so common.

You have women still faithfully married to child sex offenders because they want to protect the family name but will be frothing at the mouth in support of political parties that want to “protect the children”. Gimme a break.

At bold lipsrsealed cheesy grin it’s well.
