So, lately, I’ve really been thinking about the Rodrigues family arrest. It’s a much bigger deal than the Duggar boys’ arrests, in a way, because these are not the same type of crime. Child molestation isn’t just unforgivable—it’s one of those crimes hat makes for incredible media coverage.
Domestic violence is not really forgivable in most situations, but you know what? It doesn’t really work as well when it comes to shocking media coverage in most cases. Why am I bringing this up?
Well, it’s simple: fundies don’t generally allow domestic violence stories to leak into the mainstream media. Tim’s arrest is a major twist from the typical fundie script that goes on when a scandal hits a family.
Come, stay for the facts, the conversation and the awkward Southern Christian fundie accent I try.
Created by us demons to you, with love!
