The friendly neighborhood pedophile
By Bob Weir
I've always believed in the existence of monsters. During my 20 years as a cop in NYC, I met quite of few of them, many of whom may still be doing time in prisons around the country. However, they were the garden-variety type of monsters: murderers, rapists, armed robbers and other assorted thugs.
But there's another, even lower, level of criminal that exists in communities all across America, even in some of our churches. The creature I'm referring to is the pedophile. Several years ago, I received a six-page letter in the mail from a woman in East Cambridge, Mass., who related the tragic story of her son's murder at the hands of two such creatures. Jeffrey Curley, 10-year old son of Robert and Barbara Curley, was influenced by a neighbor and another man into joining them for what became a fatal ride in their car. The seduction had begun earlier when the neighbor befriended the young boy by treating him like an adult; taking him to a local restaurant and making him feel important. The parents were never aware that their son was being targeted for sex.
What happened to that child is too grisly to relate in this column. All I will say is that the boy refused their advances in the car and was killed before he was raped by one of them. His body was sealed in a container and dropped off a bridge into a river. The following morning, as neighbors and friends handed out fliers for the missing child, the "friendly neighborhood pedophile" came over, offering to help. When his behavior appeared suspicious he was taken in for questioning and ultimately confessed, also giving up the name of his confederate. When the police investigated the car where the murder took place, they found literature from NAMBLA, the North American Man-Boy Love Association, including nude photos of little boys. This repulsive organization was founded about 30 years ago in Boston and has a website in which it calls itself a political organization that, among other things, calls for the repeal of age of consent laws.
These people swim in the most polluted waters of sexual aberration. Their Internet location teaches pedophiles how to make themselves interesting to little boys and induce them to engage in sex. Euphemistically referring to their loathsome pursuit as "intergenerational sex," they provide a step-by-step guide for the twisted minds to follow as they stalk their victims. The ACLU is shaking the Bill of Rights in the faces of all decent Americans and trying to tell us that this is what the founders of our democracy intended.
I disagree! Does anyone think that pedophiles would have been allowed to advertise their malignant behavior in the public square of Jefferson's time? Does the term, "burned at the stake" ring a bell? ACLU lawyers have made a career of distorting the intent of the Constitution and stretching its provisions like salt water taffy in order to cover every conceivable, and some of the most inconceivable, behavior known to the species of man.
If we think back to a saner time in our history, could we have ever imagined the day would come when men could legally advertise and promote their intention to have sex with little boys? How could we have envisioned that a perversion academy would exist for the sole purpose of teaching grown men how to entice young boys into sexual unions? According to the Massachusetts ACLU Executive Director, "NAMBLA publishes erotic stories, poetry, and pictures of nude boys, but there's nothing on the website that constitutes a criminal act." Really? How about pornographic images involving young boys and grown men? How about the online academy that instructs grown men how to stalk children with the purpose of becoming intimate with them? NAMBLA continues to claim that it is a civil rights group dedicated to ending "the extreme oppression of men and boys in mutually consensual relationships." Try telling that to the parents of 10 year-old Jeffrey Curley.
