Sue's Blog - Some assembly required.

Justice for the kids.

Apparently there are more people abused by this vile excuse for a man, coming forward now. 
It seems it was well know in Australia too.
The people who have covered for him and his ilk should now be prosecuted too.
These perverts have caused peoples lives to be blighted and still there are those who will doubt the veracity of the evidence.
Evidence that has been through a court of law.  He didn't even care about the extra pain he put his victims through in the courts.
He is convicted.  Good.  Nothing is 'alleged' any more.   He is convicted.
Those victims, and it seems there are many, who thought they wouldn't have been believed, now have the right to be heard.
They also have the right to any compensation (such that it might be) that comes their way.
That compensation will never ever make up for what they went through or for what they go through every day.
Every child deserves to be heard.  Every child deserves the support that gives them the courage to speak out.  This can only be served by listening to them with compassion.
It is beyond me how anyone can have any sympathy for someone who commits such repulsive acts.

I will not rant any more about this............bloody good job I hear you say.
It is just very close to my heart and grieves me to think it doesn't upset everyone else.

So, on another note..........less than 3 weeks until Donna and Lauren arrive.
So excited.  We have lots of things lined up to do while they are here.
The Warped Tour being one of them...........sigh.
