I am getting tired by the continuing blindness of our media, our churches, our political leaders and even our schools and social institutions. I am tired of the surprise that people express when they hear of sexual abuse scandals from the past. I am tired of the surprise that people show when they hear of a local boy/man who stabs his daughter and leaves her for dead. I am tired of the surprise when a man from some states away comes around and kills local people, carting off children to torment one to death and just torment the other. The surprise covers up the continuing blindness in our community to the idea that families produce children, and that families produced all these “villains” and are continuing to produce more. These are our neighbors and your’s that are doing this. It may be you.
