I am responding to maybe dozens of posters, I can't keep them all straight anymore, who are saying that ALL molestation can be justifiably addressed by the same kind of uncontrolled rage that was demonstrated in this Texas incident. Now, there is a bizarre and disturbing view of child molestation.
At the risk of boring you with an anecdote, I once knew a family who had a family picnic, and an uncle sitting in a lawn chair playfully swatted a little girl on the behind with a magazine when she walked by. Months later, she was asked at school to report anyone who had ever touched here where her bathing suit covers. She recounted the incident. The school instituted action, the uncle spent three years in prison, despite endless efforts by the family to downplay the situation to reflect reality. The girl experienced absolutely no emotional trauma, UNTIL she was told that she had been "molested" (a word she's never heard before) and the perp would pay dearly for it.
And I gather that there are people on this forum who would have been unable to control their rage, and would have beaten the uncle to death. Because, after all, it fit the technical and legal definition of "molest". Therefore, exactly the same magnitude as savagely raping and strangler her. But it looks like the uncle got off easy, because he didn't strangle her.
