This letter is in response to last week’s letter from Bob LeMettry whom for the second time has spoken out publicly in support of Seth Jeffs’ move to Cook County.
Bob, many of your views and opinions I have agreed with, few I haven’t, but it’s okay to have a difference of opinion, right? Well normally anyway. In regards to Seth Jeffs I have to say no, it’s not okay.
There is no gray area for a child molester…. ever. One is either in support of them or not. He is not welcome here nor are the others who currently live in this county (or world for that matter) and I am overwhelmed with happiness (if that is the word) that this community has finally stepped up publicly and said NO, it’s not okay and you are not welcome here.
I have publicly made my stand on NO TOLERANCE FOR CHILD MOLESTERS for years and the only comments about my letters and point of view from this community were in whispers, never public. So with that said I say GO COOK COUNTY!
We are not talking about a land dispute, or a zoning dispute, we are talking about the condoning of a man who was involved in a known cult that openly abused children. There is no gray area Bob. If you want to stand up for this man, go for it but know exactly where many of us stand on the subject of abuse of children, cult or not. Why give him a chance? Why wait until he has committed another crime? Why?
