blood suckers

Over at Cece's blog she is ranting about the bad guys like Phil Garrido, mentioning the heinous crimes against Polly Klaas and JonBenet Ramsey in questioning what punishments are suitable for the most morally corrupt, those that rape and murder children--

"...You hear of the Polly Klaas’s who was taken and murdered years ago and the Jonbenet Ramsey who was also murdered. In her home! By some leech who thought that ruining a child and her family was acceptable...



Whats your thoughts? What punishments do you think fit these scum buckets. How do you feel about child molesters and abducters?[...read more]

confront the bogeyman

In a nice wrap up of an article about stranger danger and bad guys that molest, kidnap or kill innocent children like JonBenet and Polly Klaas, Tracey O'Shaughnessy points out stats about abductions and then sexual misconduct by those placed in positions of trust and authority like school teachers.



No question the numbers cited in Tracey's article are absolutely correct quotes from government reports. What makes these reports misleading is the fact that molestation crimes are so grossly under-reported.

For many reasons numerous victims simply can't talk about being molested, even after questioning. Some 30% never tell anyone--






Stranger Danger and Real Parental Fear
by Tracey O’Shaughnessy

"...A few months ago, my 6-year-old son came home from school with a worksheet encouraging him to “Run,” “Report” and “Remember.” It included coloring sheets in which some scary dude jumps out of a car and tries to nab a kid...

It’s tempting to wonder what kind of thoughts raced through my son’s mind. He cannot possibly know the depths of degeneracy that lead a pervert like Waterbury, CT’s John Regan to prowl around high school parking lots, looking for prey.

He couldn’t possibly imagine the moral turpitude of snakes like John Mark Karr, who find some sort of twisted pleasure in shattering a child’s innocence.

Most of these high-profile abuse cases — people like Richard Allen Davis, who abducted and killed Polly Klaas — beggar the imagination...

Last year, an Associated Press investigation found 2,570 cases from 2001 to 2005 in which teachers were punished or removed from the classroom for sexual misconduct. The allegations ranged from fondling to rape. The AP noted a 2004 Congressional report that estimated that 4.5 million students out of 50 million in American public schools “are subject to sexual misconduct by an employee of a school sometime between kindergarten and 12th grade.”...

The eerie reality is that those whom we are most inclined to trust may be those who deserve it least.

Perhaps it’s human nature to fetishize a bogeyman, rather than confront the deviant in our midst."

means to an end

'I'm smiling on the inside' is a blog about "taking time to enjoy what is important first and foremost: family", and in yesterday's post remembers JonBenet in looking for an end to crimes against cildren--

Is it ever going to end?

"I suppose this question could apply to many situations. Let me see what I can come up with....

1. My allergies/cold: I'm not sure which it is. I don't know how to tell the difference. The sinus drainage is so bad that I choke. I prop myself up with four pillows and take any medicine under the sun. Benadryl doesn't even do the trick. I don't really want to go to the doc because of a runny nose and coughing. Plus, taking Little D to the doc isn't as much fun as it sounds. I know. Poor me! LOL.

2. Crimes against children: In my opinion, a person who commits a violent crime against a child has NO place in our civilization. I know some people say, " You can't solve violence with violence." If you are spineless and coward enough to hurt a defenseless child, you deserve what you get. Haleigh Cummings. Caylee Anthony. Sandra Cantu. Samantha Runyan. Polly Klaas. Shawn Hornbeck. Ben Ownby. Arlin Henderson. JonBenet Ramsey. These are just a few off the top of my head.

3. Drunk drivers: I cannot for the life of me understand why people feel the need to drive under the influence. If you are impaired, you should NOT be behind the wheel. There is always another option. Choosing to drive drunk, is choosing murder..."

primal reaction

The tragic discovery of 8 year old Sandra Cantu's body this past Monday, JonBenet's likewise brutal and unsolved murder is relived. Experts like Tamara Walker,RN want to help parents address this difficult topic with their children and Dr. Debra Moore explores the importance of our human connection--

Media chronicle wide grief for slain Tracy girl

"Joanne Arpino remembers Polly Klaas. She thinks a lot about Caylee Anthony. She said she will never forget JonBenet Ramsey's sweet face.

But lately, the retired nurse has been haunted by the images of another little girl whose life ended in tragedy, Sandra Cantu of Tracy.

The reaction is not surprising, said psychologist Debra Moore of Sacramento.

"As human beings, we are evolutionarily programmed to feel this way," Moore said. "Protecting our young as a way of continuing the species is about as primitive as it gets.

"When a child is harmed, everything inside of us screams out that this cannot be, that we cannot have this. When we see the images of someone so vulnerable, we react."...

Moore, the psychologist, said whether people feel a connection to someone who has died seems to have little to do with whether they knew the individual directly, or even lived on the same continent...

"It's very beneficial for these families to know that we are all connected, and that someone has taken the time and the effort to visit a memorial or to write," Moore said. "That's very powerful. This is a great gift that people are giving."
