I have zero tolerance for child molesters, and here is why: Child molesters are thieves. They rob children of their innocence, their self-esteem and self-worth.
Child molesters are also bullies. The reason children don't report the abuse right away is because they are scared and sometimes told not to tell because the child molesters threaten them.
I think the ACLU's lawsuit against Sunbury is bogus.
Children should have the right to play on the playground without child molesters hanging about.
