Roy Moore Didn't Deny Kissing Teenagers as 30-Year-Old in Call With Lawmaker | Washingtonian - As a political firestorm raged over allegations that he had been romantically involved with teens, Alabama GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore appeared on Sean Hannity’s radio show Friday. Asked whether he had dated 17- or 18-year-old girls while he was in his 30s, Moore said he didn’t remember. “If I did, I’m not going to dispute these things, but I don’t remember anything like that,” he added.

We Should Never Normalize Deviant Behavior
By Donald V. Watkins
©Copyrighted and Published (via Facebook) on November 11, 2017
We should never condone, tolerate, rationalize, normalize, or excuse the following acts of deviant behavior:
1. Pedophilia
2. Child abuse
3. Rape
4. Sexual abuse
5. Domestic abuse
6. Discrimination based upon race, sex, age, religious affiliation, or sexual orientation
7. Hate crimes
8. Abuse of the elderly
9. Child exploitation
10. Torture
Deviant behavior of this nature does not represent American values. In fact, it has no place in any civilized society.
No person should ever get a "pass" on these acts of deviant behavior simply because of his/her political affiliation, socio-economic status in life, or the passage of time.
When pedophiles, wife beaters, child abusers, rapists, religious bigots, and other deviants become the standard bearers of who we are as a nation, we are in real trouble as Americans.
