Who are these "people" who would not get shocked by even 1 individual paedophile, never mind a thousand? Please don't count me amongst them.
Yes, fair point. I know what I was trying to say, but I didn't really say it! I think the sense of an organizational cover-up, covering thousands of abusers and victims, seems more disturbing than the family down the road which covered up their dad's abuse of his daughter. I suppose in a way that's irrational, since the amount of domestic abuse of children is truly enormous, and could be seen as a pandemic.
