Mama June Dating A Molester?

UPDATED: Honestly, I don't know them, or her, personally, so I can't really trust reading about the entire situation online. I'm not sure where to get reliable information on this topic and I'm not just gonna believe everything being said about June, or her kids because there's lots of stuff said about them. However, he is listed on a site for sex offenders and June's oldest daughter has come out as being the one he molested. June does say that she is not romantically involved with McDaniel She has confessed to seeing McDaniel and being with him romantically.

All I'm gonna say is:
If you have kids and you're a single mother getting into the dating scene, you should always, ALWAYS have your children's best interest in mind with this new person (or old, if you've been with them before) coming into their lives. Who they are, things they've done in the past, how they act, how they talk, everything matters. And if even one of your kids has an issue with the man you're seeing (and I don't mean they're having a tantrum cause they just don't want you to date someone that isn't their father, I mean a legitimate issue) or has been harmed by the man you are seeing or is at risk of that, here's a thought, DO NOT SEE THEM. I don't care what you believe about them, if you do it, you're being a bad mom and disrespecting/hurting your child.
Your childs mental/emotional/physical past and present state are not jokes or things you can shove aside/ignore.

That doesn't just go for June and other single mothers, but for all parents. Be aware of the people around your kids and teach them that if someone hurts them or something is happening and it doesn't feel right or that if someone touches them inappropriately, they should and can come to you for help and guidance and that you'll protect them.

Ugh, Football

Generally, I don't care for sports (I do like badminton, though). They're ok, they're just not my thing and I tend to have a difficult time understanding why people get so into them. Especially football.

Football is an okay sport. Yay, it's fun, blah blah blah, whatever. I don't care about it. I don't get why people get so into it. I don't get why schools give more of a shit about their football players than other students/extra-curriculars. I don't understand why guys sit around drinking beer and yelling at the tv and if their team loses, letting that ruin their day or sour their mood. It's weird, and it's quite frankly bullshit.

I probably wouldn't care so much except that football players get excused from so much shit. Like, have you seen some of the crap the guys in the NFL have been doing or getting busted for?
High school coaches try to protect their players from going to jail, even if they RAPED someone.
Matthew Barnett admitted to raping a 14-year-old girl.He admitted to it. On fucking camera. He and another boy recorded the rape and that of a 13-year-old girl.Why aren’t they in prison for sexual exploitation of a minor and production/possession of child pornography?Oh, right, because they’re popular football players and Matthew Barnett is related to a politician! Therefore, nothing they can do is wrong or bad and they should never face punishment and should instead be rewarded for raping young teenage girls and filming their assaults. -Source
Read the source article. That is bullshit. Why would you let someone get away with that just for being a football player? That guy is a fucking piece of shit and so are all the other teens in that town who were against Daisy for what happened to her.

Do people still remember what happened with Steubenville?
It still amazes me that after those guys were FINALLY arrested, the news could only talk about how sad it was that their sports careers were probably over instead of talking about how they committed a travesty on another person. I seriously wonder, if a high school football player committed murder, would the town still rally around them and protect their ass from getting thrown behind bars?

I just don't understand why someone should be excused for committing a crime just because they play football. Or any sport for that matter.
I don't particularly care for America in the first place, but the fact that so many rapists in this country get off scott-free is appalling and makes this country that much worse. It's a serious issue that should not be dismissed. In America or anywhere else.
