>The reason I felt compeled to write after reading this one response is that it really isn't just about vengence or Justice, for many of us it is
about protection.

This is only something you know if you have been a victim of abuse or have genuine compaasion or empathy. It is a distinction that can be lost by insensitive people who haven't gone thru the same suffering. They try to discuss the and measure the level of suffering you "really" experienced, or tell you how to react to your own suffering and anguish.

>If we didn't feel there was still some clear and present danger, I don't think half of us would care to talk about these disgusting acts of violence committed against young children.

Thanks once again. If you get it you get it. If you don't get it you just don't. Some people just don't.

>My brother who was 16 yrs old just died, it was a death that was directly caused by the Family.

Please could you speak more about this. I know it is not an easy thing to talk about.
