Monstrous lies about 10-year-old 'abortion terrifying 'sheer cowardice' |Opinion
The monsters don't just come in one form. They morph into many different ones. Each causing its own type of horror. In these instances, using their considerable powers to cast doubt on a little girl's storyThe fact people doubted the veracity of the story says as much about our society as it does about the individuals. There's a mass crisis of child sexual assault and either people don't know this or, because the topic is so chilling, they decide to ignore it.
It feels like the answer, in too many cases, will be no. There's too much money to be made by extremists who peddle lies and ugliness. Dollars apparently trump decency. What makes a human being want to cast doubt about the rape of a little girl? Why would anyone feel the need to wake up one morning, eat their cereal, hit the treadmill, and then use such ugliness as their life currency? I don’t know.
What I do know is that when I first read this story, I couldn’t help but think of my little girl, just a year older. Her sweet face. Her brightness. How, in a different universe, my daughter and this girl are friends.So, yes, this is a story about a little girl, but it’s also about some of us, and what we’ve become. Some of us are also the monsters.
