he even claimed the students chose to have their mouths taped

it’s probably worth repeating the stats:

Most sexual abuse offenders are acquainted with their victims; approximately 30% are relatives of the child , most often brothers, fathers, uncles, or cousins; around 60% are other acquaintances, such as β€œfriends” of the family , babysitters, or neighbors

the average american’s idea of who commits sex crimes against children is just so amazingly far off base.

conservatives want to blame β€œoutsiders” when the only real way to protect children is to empower them with the knowledge that they can talk about this stuff when they feel uncomfortable about or are attacked by otherwise trusted adults

truth. and pointing the finger elsewhere often seems to be self protection.

( on a different note: how does that phrase work? do you have to have two phone lines? or is this strictly a cellphone horror movie phrase? and if so, then isn’t that just β€œthey are inside the house?” very confusing. )

I was groomed by my small town library having an old man that taught people how to take apart old electronics and rebuild them and repair them. My parents still claim I β€œrandomly” decided to become an engineer in high school.

One would think a lifetime in the theater would have given Mamet a bit more tolerance of LGBTQ people but I guess not.

TBH, he’s the GOP governor who worries me the most when pundits wonder who could replace 45, the Super Callous Fragile Racist Sexist Nazi POTUS (a description from Stephen Colbert).
