Bear in mind Liddy is a Republican in a Democrat swamp and his daddy is the much hated G. Gordon.. The charges are horrid but are they valid?
ZitatRaymond Joseph Liddy — a deputy attorney general, former reserve Marine colonel and the son of Watergate figure G. Gordon Liddy — is facing a child pornography charge in federal court.
The 53-year-old Liddy pleaded not guilty to the charge in U.S. District Court in San Diego after he was arrested Tuesday at his Coronado home, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported. The newspaper said Liddy was released after posting a $100,000 bond during an arraignment Tuesday, but he’ll be confined to his home and fitted with a GPS tracking device.
Liddy is the son of G. Gordon Liddy, a lawyer and FBI agent who was convicted of burglary, conspiracy and other charges in the Watergate scandal. The elder Liddy — the chief operative in President Richard Nixon’s White House Plumbers unit that organized and directed the burglary of the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate building — served more than four years in federal prison for those crimes, which also included refusing to testify to the Senate committee investigating the Watergate scandal.
Here in southeast WA we recently had a pedophile sting operation conducted and 26 individuals were caught and arrested. This area is not all that big. I have been around more than a few years and while I am sure sexual attraction to minors has been with us forever, I do not recall it being the problem it is today. Either that or we just did not talk about it. There is an evil spirit abroad in the land that expresses itself in pedophilia, porn, abortion and other such repulsive conduct. Its culmination has yet to be seen.

It certainly appears so. Many more of us are capable o heinous things these days!
Not sure we can prove that but it sure seems obvious.

I suspect the denigration of our traditional ethics and culture has emboldened many who otherwise would not have acted on their dark impulses.
In light of human nature I view behavior in terms of a bell curve. There will always be those who do good, even if good behavior is penalized. There will always who will do evil, even if evil is punished. The large bulk of people will conform to the ethics and culture society rewards.
