New Republican senator convicted child abuser

[R.D.]

The man was not convicted of anything. "His wife said?" Oh noes, sounds like a custody battle....

Don't really know what happened here, if it was that serious, why was he not convicted?

Actually he was, the jury found him guilty of assault with a flip flop

How can this be, he's pro life, pro guns, pro the death penalty and a devout Christian?......................okay its a stupid question.

"Spare the rod, spoil the child."

Isn't that a mantra for the Bible Belt. Or do all the fundy Christians believe that?

I would wager that IF the thugs in Furguson had Dad's, and they had chose to discipline them, then there would be less dead thugs out and about

-Geaux

I would wager Gateaux that 30% of the thugs were abused by their fathers.

Really? Interesting. That would mean that 100% of the black fathers abused their kids?

-Geaux

nope Gateaux it simply means that 30% of all abused children go on to abuse members of our society in some way.Your spin says a lot about you.

This is nothing. The guy in the White House is instigating violence all over the country after the Darren Wilson indictment never happened. He did the same exact thing over the Trayvon Martin case.

Gateaux do you mean corporal punishment for male and female children, what age of child would you make the start point?. Would you also specify what implements you would use to punish a child?

Not at all inconsistent with Christianity and right-wingers:

"There is a brutal movement in America that legitimizes child abuse in the name of God. Two stories recently converged to make us pay attention. Last week, a video went viral of a Texas judge brutally whipping his disabled daughter. And on Monday, the New York Times published a story about child deaths in homes that have embraced the teachings of To Train Up a Child, a book by Christian preacher Michael Pearl that advocates using a switch on children as young as six months old. "

"I imagine that when you were growing up in the Christian Science Church, everything seemed normal, including the faith healing rituals and the peculiar way the church perceives illness. That is, that illness is not real but, rather, an illusion of the mind. Did you believe its teachings as a child and perhaps worship Mary Baker Eddy?"
A survivor of religious child maltreatment becomes an advocate for children who suffer today Religious Child Maltreatment

"Christian fundamentalists often are as keen to promote the rights of parents as they are to block the rights of women and gays. Congressman Mark Meadows is the Sunday school Bible teacher and former restaurant owner from North Carolina who rallied the Tea Party in shutting down government operations this month. His passion for killing contraceptive access has been on national display. Less known is the fact that Meadows also is spearheading a fight against rights and protections for children. He is the lead sponsor of a “parental rights amendment” that has 64 signers in Congress.

Conservatives like Meadows and Lively oppose both national and international protections for children—including compulsory education—which they see as government overreach. Thanks to their advocacy, the United States is one of two nations (out of 196) that has failed to sign the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. (We stand with Somalia!) They also oppose the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities because it “replaces parental rights with the ‘best interest of the child’ standard.”"

Right, it was a suspended sentence, so I'm not that far off, being that he used a flip-flop to spank the kid.

A rather harsh indictment, to consider him a "child abuser" over that, but go ahead and have a little party over being right.

New Republican Legislator Convicted Of Child Abuse -

"The Montana State legislature has a new member: Gilbert Bruce Meyers (R-Box Elder). Not only is Meyers one of the new crop of Republicans who attained office in the wave that took place this past Election Day, he is also a convicted child abuser. He unseated Rep. Clarena Brockie (D-Harlem), who has served District 32 for the past two years. She is also the Dean of Student Affairs at Aaniiih Nakoda College.

Court records show that Meyers was convicted of assaulting his eight-year-old son Isaac. According to his wife, this was not an isolated incident. The sentence was suspended on the condition that he not reside in Broadwater County, where the family lives. In the pre-sentence report, his wife Victoria stated that his five children feared him and were afraid to ride their bikes or even sleep in their own beds because “they know [Meyers] is around town, somewhere.”"

that IS a STATE matter. unless you live there why are you posting on it as if it's someone IN CONGRESS? Do any of you have any HONOR in what you post?

The pickings must be pretty damned slim for Democrats these days. No toe-tapping Senators to spread their nonsense I guess.

[DGS49]

TO SUMMARIZE, the person posting under the pseudonum "Delta4Embassy" implies falsely that a newly-elected United States Senator (who gives a fuck about a Montana state legislator?) is a convicted "child molester," quoting an article posted on a site called, "LIBERALS-UNITE!," to "prove" his point.

I, for one, am fucking appalled.

Remarkably - and to the great chagrin of the LIBERALS-UNITE columnist - the offending legislator's Democrat opponent did not even raise the issue in her campaign.

Well...

Could it be because it was a bullshit charge, a bullshit conviction, and the said Democrat incumbent opponent realized that if she HAD brought it up, her Montanan constitutents would have thought even less of her for raising a preposterously slanderous allegation, based on nothing more than a difference of opinion on appropriate parenting between the Nanny State of Montana and a disciplinarian parent?

I blush to admit that there was the occasional instance of corporal punishment in my household while I was growing up (not against me, of course), and my sibling-victim would have been quite HAPPY had the instrument of torture been a fucking flip-flop.

Gilbert is NOT a Senator.
