The Milwaukee Archdiocese had transferred Widera to California in 1981, knowing the priest had a history of abuse. He was facing 42 counts of child molestation in the two states when he died in 2003 after leaping from a hotel balcony in Mexico.

This was done by the poeple that control the moral guide of our President.

The Archdiocese of Milwaukee has agreed to pay more than $16 million to settle sexual abuse claims ... Half the settlement will come from insurance...

Wow ... I didn't know there was pedophile insurance!
Fuck, we can't even get wind insurance.

The whole priest thing is crazy. I read a couple of days ago about a priest getting charged with rape while performing an exorcism.

According to the news 4% of the clergy have been accused of sexual misconduct. Most from boys aged 11 to 14. The church has spent over 1/2 Billion US Dollars in legal cases.

4% |shocking| That's 1 in 25. Think about how many clergy work in a church or school. think about how many kids never mention it because of shame. Would you allow children that you cared about any where near a place when 1 in 25 were accused of molestation?

The church often seems to know and just keeps moving these sick people around.

Now take this religion that allows this to happen to children. Make 58% of The Supreme Court this religion. Allow them to make laws protecting our children.

What is wrong with this picture?
