Once again it's "godly" men caught abusing little boys. Not a drag queen in sight.

No ---.

Whenever you have men in places of power and influence over children, it will always attract pedophiles:

Youth sports.
Church.
Education.
Youth pastors.
Police.

Not a drag queen, not a transgender person.

Gay men preying on boys covered up again.

Gay men are attracted to men, not children. Peddle your bigotry elsewhere.

Gay men prey on boys. They are not gay if they prey on girls. They're still sick.

Either way pedophiles.

This story is a rehash of what people have known for decades about the organizations and how religion hid them.

Once convicted, these hideous pederasts should be de-naturalized and deported to CECOT in El Salvador or other overseas hellholes, just like the diabolical Trumpf junta is doing to far less dangerous migrants.

" 8, Yeah I haven't plonked someone that wasn't a brad new troll account that fast in a while"

Brand new troll account? I just clicked the profile. Petrous registered to this 2006. That's almost 20 years ago.

#11 A brand new troll account?

You mean like this:

Saw this article:
Trump Official Blames Obama for His $1 Million Office Redesign - This is all Barack's fault, you see.
Imagine my surprise when I saw that the author of the article was not jeffj.

I was certain that the "This is all Barack's fault, you see." part pointed directly to jeffy.

#11 Or, perhaps a brand new troll account, like this:

"...who voted 3rd Party in '16 "helped Trump win" ... It makes no sense whatsoever, but, whatever." - #126 | Posted by JeffJ at 2017-06-30 06:32 AM
How Gary Johnson and Jill Stein helped elect Donald Trump
[snip] Michigan: Trump stood 11,837 votes ahead of Clinton, with 96% of the vote in Wednesday evening. The total support for Johnson and Stein was 223,707 votes -- almost 20 times more than the margin as of this writing.
In the dictionary, under the listing for "JeffJ," it refers readers to:
disingenuous (dis'njenyoo's/) adjective - not candid or sincere, typically by pretending that one knows less about something than one really does.
