-Caveat Lector- Well, I hate to agree with Shannon but I guess I must concede that once one begins reading an article that is offensive, one has the right to delete immediately. It is not required that a member read every post. I know I don't. Except occasionally in Italy, seldom is porn in news articles. This was a condemnation of the acts, not a condoning of them. With a little more open discussion of these matters, the children might have brought this to the attention of the proper authorities at the time it was happening instead of being too "sensitive" to tell until much later. That would have stopped it and possibly spared others suffering similar treatment. There is a vast difference being desensitized and being too shamed by a subject to even speak out when this is being done to you. You must have missed our past postings on this subject and might want to check out the archives to see that there is a great deal of concern on this list. Actually, we did once have some "child" pornography posted by a sick prankster but it turned out to be a photo of a dwarf. It was unsolicited and done anonymously to offend the entire list as the person knew it was inappropriate here. See the warning at the end of each post that "sordid" topics are discussed here and be forewarned. No one expects you to change your personal beliefs nor intends to offend you. But it is my personal belief that these things need to be exposed and children taught it is wrong and what to do if anything ever happened to them. Child molesters do not need instruction. They know all too well exactly what they want to do. I hope you will just delete the posts that offend you. Most folks on this list are mature adults and just want to know what happened. You will possibly see similar posts from time to time but not often--only when something like this is topical. Just skip that thread as there will be plenty of other posts to read.

Proselytizing propagandic screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please!

That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
