So what happens now?
Posted on | May 20, 2009 | 40 Comments
In the light of the child abuse report what will happen?
Are there many of the perpetrators left alive? If so can they be prosecuted? Age should be no impediment.
What about naming those who carried out such abuses?
I heard Christine Buckley on the radio earlier and she spoke about how relieved she was that after 25 years people would know the truth, that she would be believed.
But don’t we owe them more than that?

I know someone close to me who was abused, made a complaint to the cops, first cop did fuck all about it, second cop took ages to do anything about. Eventually went to the DPP. DPP decided not to prosecute. No explanation. It would drive you to kill. The cunt is still alive.

Unfortunately I think we all know someone who was abused, or affected by abuse in a family/community. A cousin of mine was abused and her whole family were so faithful to the church that they didn’t believe him.
Nothing was ever done, the cunt who abused him is long dead. This report does prove to everyone that he wasn’t lying, but it’s not enough.
They won’t be named and if they ever are, they’ll just be moved to another parish.
It’s not on, if you or I abused children we’d be locked up with other perverts and murderers, not moved to another part of the world to do it again.
I feel sick.

They didn’t believe her, mistype.
May 20th, 2009 @ 6:35 pm
And still they do nothing.
They still pay the fees for the church, they still refuse to prosecute.
And dickheads still vote for the same ruling party.

Yup, my grandmother still empties her purse into the Church envelope every Tuesday.
How could you still support it after what went on, or turn a blind eye when it was going on?

And you know what, I’ll bet all the Garda stations across the country are running extra patrols around seminaries and the homes of known abusers.
May 20th, 2009 @ 6:57 pm
Of course they are.

How do you feel about the deal Bertie did with the Church – back when the Celtic Tiger was healthy – that their liability would be capped and the state pick up most of the costs of this ? Can that be challenged ?

You just can’t go after the fuckers who did the act that would be like shooting all the guards at the Nazi concentration camps and ignoring the leaders of the regime.
No you have to go after each and every member of the church and government that knew it was going on and put them on public trial to utterly and completely humiliate them then shoot them…or let the victims have a go at those who tortured and destroyed their lives

This country is corrupt to the core. Same old story. Remember Bertie going into the Dail every ash wednesday with a big lump of ash on head? He used to get ash on his head in the morning, get his make-up done that afternoon and then throw another lump on over his make-up. fucking pathetic little man is loved by all the corrupt cunts in this corrupt little country.
nothing changes. never will.
(maggot stole my thunder with the bertie deal, a deal that all these god fearing cathlics loved)
May 20th, 2009 @ 7:39 pm
Yeah that was fucked alright. There’s some major Opus Dei freak on happening I reckon.
May 20th, 2009 @ 7:39 pm
Itchy – yep – anybody else with a personal life like Bertie had would have been crucified but of course it is purely coincidence that Bertie in effect gave away hundreds of millions of Euros and nothing was said.
May 20th, 2009 @ 7:41 pm
check this out folks we had to deal with this exact same thing here in Canada a few years ago

I fucking hate the catholic church!

Maybe they shouldnt do that.Those cunts deserve some Old Testament retribution.But maybe they’d get off one that..
May 20th, 2009 @ 7:49 pm
these could well be a case of the dogs eating the dogs the government is in shit up to its eyes so lets feed the church to the masses they will stop looking at us for a while.
Great thing about that is once thieves start turning on each other its the public that wins
May 20th, 2009 @ 8:13 pm
Not one penny paid to the victims by the Church..
Not going to happen either..

Should be.
First thing to do would be take all their schools away from them. (This is what should have been done as payment for Bertie’s sweetheart deal).
No more church input into schools which receive any state funding. This applies to all churches but particularly the RC Church. No more kids getting their heads filled with lies. And it would put a stop to the obscene communion charade.

looking forward to Jeremy Paxman talking about cunts.
does twenty get money for that? hope so. if not he should sell his soul to rupert

That provincial of the Christian Brothers that was on the news this evening is one slimy, insincere, lying prick. I would dearly love to have 10 minutes with him and a large anal probe to see if even that could make the cunts eyes water.
Cos the plight of all those poor kids sure doesn’t.
Obviously.
May 20th, 2009 @ 9:06 pm
Christian Brothers successfully sued the commission in 2004, preventing their members being named and therefore avoiding prosecution. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8060442.stm
So there is nothing left for it but setting fire to the seminaries.

The abuse itself and the collusion between church and state to protect the abusers really is a scandal. And it’s a word that is bandied around too much but this is a really shocking indictment of this country.
It is fucking shameful.
May 20th, 2009 @ 9:15 pm
I don’t understand what y’all are bitchin’ about. When I was a child I had to abuse myself.
May 20th, 2009 @ 9:38 pm
10 Park Drive – That’s fucking hilarious. Well done.
May 20th, 2009 @ 9:46 pm
Come here my pretty one.
May 20th, 2009 @ 9:47 pm
It’s a pity irony doesn’t translate over text.
Oh, and Twenty, your point on the collusion between church and state reflects my thinking to a tee. This says more about how far our country hasn’t come than anything I’ve seen in the last five, ten years.
May 20th, 2009 @ 10:12 pm
you might be interested in the fact that the current pope signed documents sent to all bishops around the world commanding them to keep silence on this sort of thing.

According to the article, that was 40 years ago but yeah, straight from the top. Oh hang on, the top is God though, right? I’m confused.
May 20th, 2009 @ 10:38 pm
Corporal punishment was allowed until 1998, this stuff didn’t come out till 1999!!! The stuff on Vincent Brown at the moment that Christene Buckley is talking about is dreadful. This has to be the end of those cunts. A controlled explosion of Artane CBS would be a start.
May 20th, 2009 @ 10:44 pm
Oh MY Got!, you were raped by the SYSTEM!!
No, it was just a catholic, you know, such a tiny one.
I don’t believe a word of it!!!

Mate of mine went back after 20 years and head-butted the Monsignor into the face, right in the street in broad daylight,no conversation, no screaming, nothing. Laid the 65-year-old-fucker out with one unmerciful blast to the nose. People stood around in shock, made no comment because they knew. Your man strolled calmly away after looking at his handy work. He said it was like being reborn.
May 20th, 2009 @ 10:57 pm
That’ll probably happen anyway.
May 21st, 2009 @ 7:14 am
I watched on the BBC news last night, they interview some bishop or cardinal, no idea what or who he was to be honest.
But he had been asked about possible criminal cases.
His response was if people were still alive there was sufficient evidence that it should be brought forward.
The smirk on his face, the cunt might as well have just said ‘nah nah nah nah nah’.

Hahaha, same happened in my hometown.
They had an award ceremony for a christian brother who was the principal of the primary school.
3 farmer lads who got picked on by him cos they were a bit thick and used to get savage beating from him with hurleys etc, cornered him and beat the living shit out of him.
He only left the school in around ’86.

Abusers often gravitate towards professions where they have access to children, or have positions of power, the deviousness is part of the pathology. Thus teachers, scoutleaders, voluntary youth leaders etc etc. In any other profession the state has put in place legislation to minimise the risk of these fuckers getting in, but the same cannot be said of priests, vicars etc. They are often the first point of contact for pastoral care and yet they go unchecked in society. The Catholic church should either take steps or face intervention by the state, if they had any decency they would admit their guilt as an organisation and prove to the world they are doing something to prevent it happening again. I cannot understand why the state would protect a religous organisation, certainly not one as wealthy as the Catholic church.
May 21st, 2009 @ 9:19 am
My mate tried to sue the Christian Brothers for psychological damage. He’s left feeling inadequate being the only kid that wasn’t abused in his class.

I have just been reading the Ryan report……..I don’t know what to say..!!!
What happens now, this cannot be let just slide and disappear, there is way too much wrong in so many aspects of this.
