Letters to the Editor 03-18-2005

- Molesting - Rebate Molesting Editor, Times-Union: This is in response to Kerry Mills' letter published on March 17 about stereotyping gays with molestation. Kerry, a child molester can play any role within a community or a family.Regardless of their supposed sexual preference, straight or gay, a child molester is a sick, sick individual who needs serious help. Committing such a devastating act against an innocent child who knows only to trust his molester can be worse than committing any other crime against the child.This child will live with, and struggle with, the scars that this molester has permanently etched in his mind for the rest of his life.The child has lost confidence, trust and worst of all, his innocence.
