I'm just gonna say it: at some point, a person becomes a serious threat and needs to be isolated from society forever. That point is waaaaaaay before molesting 71 children. If you slap someone on the wrists too many times, their hands just go numb.

I say give him to the kid's parents.

stream it too

In Florida this guy would get the chair.

[-] thefartographer@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Or he'd hold an elected position for decades

[-] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I can't say that I agree with many Floridian laws but this is one I could get behind. To put it mildly, what a pos.

So, 6 months jail time for permanently traumatizing a single child? "Think of the children" indeed!

"Think of the children!"

The priest:

If you think that's bad, here's the joke I was going to post but thought it was in bad taste:

The priest wasn't interested in converting to Islam, he had his 72 virgins already.

The crowds just warmed up - Keep going, you're on fire!

[-] Zozano@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Funny that you mention crowds getting warmed up, that's how you can get your own harem of virgins.

[-] secarchon@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

I like my humor dark!

These non-human pieces of shit can be easily put into power over the weak, naive, and vulnerable when a part of the church. It's as simple as "volunteering" to help out with the kid's Sunday school classes, childcare, youth group, "mentoring", and all other kinds of jobs they so selflessly volunteer to do. No background checks needed!

They'll pick out the ones least likely to speak up. They'll gain their trust. They'll form a bond of trust. They'll nurture the relationship. They can easily convince the party they've assaulted that you should be guilty for what happened.. what you made them do.

I know this, because I was a victim many many years ago.

A church in my area recently had an uproar because the pastor's son had been doing things to children. Thing is.. it came out the pastor and his wife knew their son had a "problem" for years before.. AND STILL GAVE HIM FULL ACCESS TO THE CHILDREN IN THE CHURCH!!!

Dead serious: keep your kids out of the church. Do not trust them with your children!!

I'm sorry that happened to you. I read recently of another church leader who killed a little girl he was supposed to be driving somewhere in a group, then pretended she never got on the bus, and comforted her family. In the 1970s. Only recently admitted to the murder. I can't imagine what kind of sociopath takes somebody's baby and then lies to their face for 50 years about what happened.

[-] Daqu@feddit.de 32 points 1 year ago

Less than a year per child? That's not enough.

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

if I only had to pay 7 months ... nah, I can't finish that sentence.

[-] BruceTwarzen@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago

It's always the ones you most expect.

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago

imagine being one of the other 71 people being told this one's pain is worth 12 months

[-] digitalgadget@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Why was he even allowed access to the 72nd one? Isn't there some point where we decide this isn't going to stop?

[-] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

I guess you get a bulk discount on destroying children's lives. That's fucked up.

[-] ComradeChairmanKGB@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Muslims have to wait until after death to get their 72 virgins. Christians get them in this life. Which religion is superior I ask you?

[-] honeynut@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago
[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Obviously no religion. They all are useless in my books.

No one should need some "ancient texts" to tell them how to not be a piece of human garbage.

Christianity and Islam are probably the two major ones who have caused the most death out of any.

Just be a good person.

[-] sadreality@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Clergy does attract this sort of shit... how come we only finding this out recently?

[-] DrCatface@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

had a workmate ponder why this sorta stuff only comes up 20 yrs later, I saw red and yelled well put yourself in their shoes you wouldn't want to talk about it either

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Because we blocked our ears for so long.

[-] o0joshua0o@lemmy.world -3 points 1 year ago

Maybe Australia should bring back the death penalty.

[-] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Australia WAS the death penalty.

[-] fuser@quex.cc 6 points 1 year ago

Especially if you were indigenous.

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Nah.

We don’t want to be as disgusting as this person.
