More than 2,300 suspected child sex offenders arrested in nationwide bust!!
Fox News ^ | Greg Norman

Its a GREAT DAY people!!!

A massive raid carried out against suspected child sex offenders netted more than 2,300 arrests across the U.S., the Justice Department announced Wednesday, as it vowed to “strike back against these repugnant crimes.”

The three-month operation, dubbed “Broken Heart”, ended in May after being conducted by Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task forces located in all 50 states, comprising of more than 4,500 law enforcement agencies at the federal, state, local and tribal levels.

"No child should ever have to endure sexual abuse," said Attorney General Jeff Sessions in a statement. "And yet, in recent years, certain forms of modern technology have facilitated the spread of child pornography and created greater incentives for its production. We at the Department of Justice are determined to strike back against these repugnant crimes.”

It’s a distraction from Sessions’ otherwise putrid record, especially his recusal.

Possibly they are or will be....

Just the other day, online, I read and saw photos of recently arrested abusers of children.....here in Florida.....I don’t remember the number, MANY!

They included a man who worked at Disney World, including his specific job there, his full name and face and exactly what evidence they found!!!

It was mind boggling......some of the accusations included babies and toddlers.
One man worked for Legoland
One man drove Boy Scouts to events

The detail was devastating and revealing to these men.

I have never seen this level of detail in my life!!!

What if this is happening in other states?!!!

“Of the 2,300, there are doubtless some who are not guilty, “

I don’t agree with secret courts. it is why we have habeas corpus, to keep secret government courts from happening.

I agree with the names being withheld until convicted. I have a problem with the source. One person at Fox News makes this claim. There is no breakdown of areas where the arrests were made. that would be “basic” information. There is no link to any Gov’t source. Apparently all these people were rounded up and only one person in the USA is privy to the information. Sounds like a false info situation created to scare the Pervs. Maybe some more suicides!

They are everywhere. But which of us is immune from having evidence planted? Not me, not you, we are both connected to the interwebs. We have both said things that are critical of the government (as unbelievable as that sounds!).

Hopefully every one that is guilty will be convicted, and punished, and everyone falsely accused will be acquitted. Those will be granted their freedom, but where do they go to get their reputations, their time and their money back?

It does sell papers. “You furnish the pictures and I’ll furnish the war”. How many good and decent people died so Hearst could sell more papers?

As much as I loathe to think about the Obama Administration and its VP Biden who I view as a corrupt family head from the dismal state of Delaware, I simply can’t see child abuse in those photos. Senior adults, grandparents are always smothering kids with affection.

Perhaps I have missed some verified, confirmed backstory of Biden and child abuse. If I have, please enlighten me.

It's quite well known in Washington circles, good luck proving it in court. Witnesses get rather forgetful when the full weight of the government is applied.

There's a new sheriff in town, we'll see how this plays out.

Meanwhile a web search for 'Biden groping' would be quite illuminating.

I was in ministry for over 30 years, I can never recall ever having physical contact with the child other than a pat on top of the head saying well done.... or perhaps I handshake when presenting an award of some type.

If you look at the picture above with Biden… It screams of inappropriate contact. I don’t know any guy that would ever have contact in that way…...

Look at the shot of Biden bowing down to kiss the boy on the lips… if I was in the room I would’ve backed that guy up against the wall…

Is just simply not done.

Biden has a strong pedophile drive. I hope he is caught.

“I am far happier to see all these pervs busted than see a couple of politicians go to jail. “

Perhaps they are one and the same, which might explain Session’s seemingl “non-involved” posture when in fact he’s killing more than a number of birds/perps with one stone.

Then you ‘ve never heard of the sweet looking grandfatherly man who befriended a poor ( and hungry) mom and her kids......at a Walmart in Florida a few years ago.....
...he told one of the little girls he would get food....took her by the hand and let her outside..

The details are horrific
Predators are everywhere

He was just sentenced!

Many leaders including President Trump has shown warm affection for children.

I have witnessed grandmothers in Church hug and squeeze children while telling them how sweet they are.

If you have never seen affection for children, then I would think your life is sad and cold.

Jesus said:

“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Now note, I am not saying your suspicion or view of Biden is wrong, I am in no way defending him, I am just saying that those photos show a grandfatherly man acting lovingly to little children. To people outside of the US, those photos do not appear evil. Maybe he is evil, but where is the clear evidence?

I love children, love my kid, and I am afraid that this emerging era of pederasty awareness is going to throw cold water on all warm hearts everywhere who love kids.

When my child was in pre-K/K Waldorf school, the head teacher was always greeting every child with warm hugs. There was absolutely nothing wrong in it and there was absolutely nothing wrong in the school as parents were required to spend 2 days a month as aides to the school’s teachers.

I also remember a hysteria that broke out in a small town in the 80s where the pre-K teachers were accused of child abuse and ritualistic sacrifice. Years later, after the pre-school had been shut down and actually torn down, the truth came out that the allegations were entirely false, all driven by an influential elder who was later discovered to be suffering from severe mental illness but who was clever enough to persuade others to believe in things that were patently false.

Yes, witch hunts do happen.

Now that doesn’t mean that such abusive cultures are all concocted hysterical creations of paranoia, there are indeed confirmed evidence of many pockets of awful child abuse.

What I am saying is that by looking at those photos, one cannot and should not condemn without knowing what is in the heart and mind of the suspect.

I could be wrong. Biden has always been a strange stooge to me, from the time of his irrational attacks on Clarence Thomas and the history that came before regarding his dishonesty. Biden to me is not a sympathetic person. But if I am to be a member of a jury to decide his guilt or innocence in regards to child abuse, child molestation, child pedophilia, I am not able to vote for a verdict of guilty based on those photos.

Again, if others have evidence that I have missed, please inform me.

HOSTAGE WROTE:
“”Many leaders including President Trump has shown warm affection for children””

So now your pulling President Trump into the same pedophile actions of Biden?

Unbelievable!

Did I say such awful incidents never occur?

Of course, such monsters exist!

But can you imagine yourself on a jury to weigh a verdict that this Biden fellow is a child abuser, a child molester, a pedophile? Are you going to vote guilty to sentence such people to prison based on such photos?

Because if you do, I can see society moving to a cold and loveless state where children are to be avoided at all costs lest one be accused of child molestation.

Now, if witnesses came forward and testified to deliberately touching of private parts of children, then my verdict would be guilty and even then, such touching would have to be outside a medical clinic, and even then again, some cases involving medical clinic staff have resulted in convictions of molestation.

The point is these photos do not convict, they are not sufficient to convict. Biden may be a pedophile, he may be a molester, but these photos do not remove all doubt, they are not sufficient in themselves, they are circumstantial, there must be something more. I don’t know if there is something more, I haven’t seen it.

Note or recall that Biden tried to prove at Clarence Thomas’s confirmation hearing that Thomas was a woman abuser, that he was lewd, nasty, disrespectful of women, all based on testimony of one witness, Anita Hill. It was sad that many Americans were led to believe such lies. How could anyone believe such a politically led lynching?

Again, I have no sympathy for Biden, but where is the evidence to convict?
