Its hitting the fan (what a surprise). Sad that it seems almost everyone in the religious insular town knew about the DA pedophile, but kept their mouths shut for decades, despite high-profile elections.
Or they feared the religious insular backlash, as we have recently seen against the victims.
Before anyone accuses Roy Moore of hypocrisy, that cruising for teenage girls is perfectly kosher, nowhere in the Bible says that itâs bad to like young girls. Whatâs more he was making an effort to not violate the 9th commandment: âThou shalt not covet your neighborâs wifeâ, so instead of lusting for adult women that were more likely to have a husband, he focused on teenage girls.
You see, it may sound like Moore is a creepy perv, but in reality he is a solid God fearing Christian.
Moore accuser #5 has completely damning evidence in the form of his inscription, "love"d, signed and dated, in her high school yearbook.
For the record, I signed high-school girlsâ yearbooks too, when I was in high school. Unless theyâre on staff there, I cannot think of any earthly reason why any adult would sign a HS yearbook. I think Moore has invented a new red flag for the canonical predator profile. We should name it for him.
This reminds me of stories about predatory sheriffs in places like Appalachia.
Everyone in town knows they are trouble, yet everyone stays quiet, for years.
These same cultures have profound libertarian, anti-government impulses.
âDonât Tread on Meâ. How does all this work?
I love how Breitbart and the AL Repubs are going to show how this is all a âDemocrat Party smear.â Yeah, you send your reporters down there and find out the real story.
The longer this goes, the more he protests and the Right tries to back him but fails, the better for those of us who want to pop the Fox/Sinclair/Breitbart epistemic bubble.
Reporting is reporting, dammit. Multiple independent sources, corroboration, details. Weâve always had rumors, we always had powerful folks trying to keep their dirty laundry inside. Professional journalism evolved to overcome them.
Absolutely un-fucking believable. This is the best that the white trash Republicans of AL can come up with: a born again asshole who spends his spare time hanging around the local mall looking for little girls to fuck.
