BREAKING: Catholic priests & lay religious brothers sexually abused over 1,997 kids — in Illinois ALONE — over the last 7 decades, according to a new investigation.
In 2018, the Catholic Church said there were over 100 abusers. But guess what? The state says the ACTUAL number was more than 450!
“This report clearly tells us that no one knew more about abuse, and no one did less about it, than these dioceses themselves,” said Mike McDonnell (pictured), a spokesman for a victim advocacy group.
Here's my question:
Why do so many conservative Christians point to people like me in the LGBTQ community as a threat to their kids, when the REAL danger so often lies in their own churches?
Tell me that. And I'll give you more details on this story, and more stories on real threats to our kids, as I find them. 🧵👇
@akafacehots@ianmiles@symphony1986 Why the fuck does political party mean anything in this circumstance? No matter what side you’re on, it’s messed up. Stop trying to politicize an atrocity, dickhead.
