An Australian ex-priest convicted of sexually abusing children had another 12 months added to his 39-year prison sentence on Tuesday for molesting a 72nd victim.

    What about the drag queens? Why don’t we ever see reports of drag queens grooming and molesting children?

        It’s just that with the right wing rage about drag queens grooming and molesting children while reading them stories about acceptance and self-worth in public libraries with their parents present I just assumed that there must be thousands and thousands of examples of drag queens who have been convicted of grooming and molesting children but I’ve never seen anyone come forward with a single example.

          I agree with your observation. Not at all sure how it relates to the OP.

            The people who participate in the centuries old cult that has a well documented history of grooming and sexually abusing millions of children and which continues to this day to groom and abuse children on an industrial scale while denying that it happened/is happenimg and moved/moves the predators from one cult location to another allowing them to groom and abuse many more victims are the ones who are claiming that it is drag queens that are the real problem. I just wondered if any of them could look up from their own navels for long enough to realize how truly fucking ridiculous and pathetic they are for being enablers and supporters of a group of organizations that have destroyed the lives of millions of children.

    Honestly, why is there such a strong connection between priesthood and child molestation? is it the role that attracts creeps?

      I think it‘s a mix of having to suppress your sexual needs (that possibly wouldn‘t even include children), the position of authority and the „easy“ victim…

      The church covers it up enabling it to go on for longer and hence more victims.

    How many lives has he ruined? How many suicides? How many instances of domestic violence? How many people who had to live the rest of their lives in misery because they couldn’t get effective help?

    I don’t even want a death sentence for people like him. I want him to be waterboarded every day until his every waking moment is filled with the same constant fear and anxiety as his victims.

    12 months per kid? A marijuana possession charge is more time than that.

      It’s a bit pointless to argue the length of the punishment because any year added will be added to his corpse. Most legal systems do not stack their punishments as a flat rate like that. The first kid probably gave him most of the jail sentence and the rest added very little.

      Also I don’t think normal possession charges in Australia just gives you a fine because it’s not USA. If you look it up it says 2 years for possession but that includes carrying 50g of heroin so carrying a joint will not send you to jail.

        All a fair point. I hadn’t put much thought into the comment, but good on Australia for putting him away for life.

      More like six months per victim, if you do the math. Australia really cares about their children, obviously.

      That bugged me too. He wasn’t a priest, left the church, then molested kids. He was a catholic priest who molested kids.

        He seems like such a normal guy. I wonder what he did to get kicked out?

    How to you only have 40 years when you have 72 victims. At least make it a year each victim. the fuck they doin in Australia?

    Maybe they should’ve arrested him after the 71st kid.

      Should have put him down after the first.

      I think the authorities like it to get into the triple digits before they feel the need to do anything.

    These are the people who argue that atheists have no morality. Just a reminder.
