to all those who cannot find their voice
YOU TELL ME THAT I HAD CONTROL.
THAT IF I HAD WANTED THE SEXUAL ABUSE TO STOP,
ALL I HAD TO DO WAS PICK-UP THE PHONE AND TELL SOMEONE.
YOUR EXACT WORDS WERE:
"CALL A POLICEMAN"
YOU IGNORANT SON-OF-A-BITCH.
YOU TELL THAT TO A TWO YEAR OLD.
YOU TELL THAT TO A 3, 4, 5, 6 YEAR OLD.
YOU TELL THAT TO A TEEN WHO'S BEING THREATENEND WITH HIS/HER LIFE
OR THAT OF THEIR YOUNGER BROTHERS OR SISTERS.
YOU IGNORANT BASTARD.
YOU ASSUME THAT JUST BECAUSE YOU FOUGHT IN SOME FUCKING WAR
THAT YOU "WATCHED YOUNG MEN DIE BY THE DOZEN"
THAT I HAVE NO COMPREHENSION OF "YOUR" PAIN???
YOU SAY:
"DON'T SPEAK OR USE ANALOGIES THAT ARE FAR ABOVE
'MY' UNDERSTANDINGS."
LET ME TELL YOU FRIEND:
"CHILDREN...MALE AND FEMALE, WHO ARE FORCED TO 'KEEP QUIET'
HAVE LOOKED DEATH IN THE EYES - THEY,TOO, HAVE SUFFERED.
WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU TO JUDGE THEM OR ME?"
I PUT FORTH THIS CHALLENGE TO ALL WHO DARE:
(1.) IF YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE - GET EDUCATED!
(2.) IF YOU ARE OR WERE A "VICTIM" - BROTHERS & SISTERS UNITE!
LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD (please). YOU NOW HAVE A CHOICE.
I ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE THAT STEP - TO LET "OTHERS" KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.
(3.) *****MOST IMPORTANTLY******
IF YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO IS SEXUALLY ABUSING A CHILD OR CHILDREN
I FUCKING DARE YOU TO TELL ME THAT WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS RIGHT!
BECAUSE WHETHER YOU ARE A MAN OR WOMAN - I'D LIKE NOTHING BETTER THAN TO TEAR YOU A NEW ASSHOLE!
