    Obviously this guy needs to be locked up forever, but America’s lack of a social safety net is also to blame.

    Unavailable or unaffordable child care meant that mothers working in that mall had to rely on a predator to watch their kids so they could earn a living.

    This sort of thing happens anywhere people are forced to choose between putting food on the table and childcare costs.

    A group?

    In those videos, upwards of seven people could be heard making vulgar comments and could be seen assaulting the child, though only Fernandez is charged.

    Jesus Christ. And this is basically the result of shitty access to child care. I wonder if anti-everything-helpful Republicans ever thought of that.

    The videos they took were posted online

    It just gets more horrible. Noah, get the boat.

      Yeah, the fact that this guy knows ~7 people IRL, all pedophiles, all willing to hurt a toddler, in a public place, and on camera…

      It’s horrifying.

    Fernandez’s former boyfriend.

    This is an unfortunate fact (that he’s gay) that the Right will focus on to further confirm their delusion that non-hetero people are likely to be pedophiles.

      I will get to use this against a qultist idiot I know though. He’s all against trans people using their preferred bathroom. The only thing he was “concerned” with was men dressing up as women to sexually assault young girls in the women’s bathroom. Apparently boys don’t need protection because other men would stop it or some dumb shit. So now I just play the waiting game until he posts more dumb shit.

    Wow what the hell?

    Those poor poor kids. This guy needs to be removed from society for the rest of his life. Fuck that.
