Do you think this pervert should be removed?


A Registered SEX OFFENDER was just re-elected as volunteer FIRE CHIEF of a small 300 people Pennsylvania town and has now caused outrage but the Mayor STANDS BY HIM!!

Chief Fatty Roger Gilbert Jr of Spartansburg was convicted of sexual intercourse in 2001 with 4 YEAR OLD GIRL and completed a 5-10 year sentence for "involuntary deviate sexual intercourse"

The 43 y/o joined the Volunteer Fire Dept in 2010 and was recently re-elected position of fire chief for a second time, sparking outrage and an online petition to have him removed!!

The victim's mother says he should NOT be in a position where he can interact with children.

But Republican Mayor Ann Louise Wagner SUPPORTS him and said that she and the volunteer firefighting dept were aware of his history and of his unpaid volunteer position.

She said "I support the fire department and their decision to have him as chief. The firemen have always elected their own officers and that's how it's always been done. We don't question their decisions"

Roger vows he's a "changed man" and said "That was 20 years ago. You know, the story you are telling kids is once you make a mistake, you will be punished for the rest of your life. I've changed my life for the better. Every day i get up and try to do good"

State police said it's up to the community to decide whether to allow sex offenders who have completed their sentences to serve in an office at the local level.

This town has only 300 residents as many are still outraged over the position.

Terry Sheets said "No grown man that has had intercourse with a 4 y/o should still be alive! Much less fire chief where they are looked to as a refuge from harm"

Danielle Card said "Why is he even allowed to work in a profession where children are taught to trust and turn to them?!? His job should NEVER allow him to be in the vicinity of children. SICK"

Reta Hull said "WTF!!! I don't care if it was 50 years ago and if the person was now 100 y/o he should never be allowed to participate in areas where he has access to children"

Do you think this pedophile should be removed?.

I think the question that should be asked is, "In what ways does being a kiddy diddling fire chief give you access to kids to diddle?" Other than putting out fires, firemen are also called out to medical incidents, community outreach programs and events, school functions, and host school field trips.

So the answer is plenty.

If people who serve their time in prisons aren't given a second chance, what's the point of releasing anybody from prison? Seriously? It's not like he's a teacher or some role where he's with kids, he's a VOLUNTEER fire chief.

He can get a second chance by not being in prison and getting a job where he doesn't interact with children.

He doesn't interact with children, he's a VOLUNTEER fire chief. The only time he might interact with them is when saving them from a burning building and that doesn't give much time to take liberties. Frankly, whatever job he has probably gives him greater access to kids, whether he's working in a store or restaurant.

What exactly did he do to the girl and what happened to her? Calling it "intercourse" sounds a bit tame considering the age.


Given the age, there's not much he could have done. If you really care, there might be a record of the case you could look into.

What he was actually convicted of sounds like he may have used foreign objects or something. But men have fully penetrated kids that age. And it's unbelievably heinous because they can literally die from it.

Oh yeah going back to this. Nah, I don't believe in adding more evil to evil by torturing people. A nice clean bullet through the head would sure work for me though. Or at least a life of poverty and sorrow because all of society shuns them.

So, you're saying you don't know fuck all about what he could have done (and yes, children have been fucked to death, by literal penetration)... so saying there's not much he could have done is a complete load of shit...

And I don't care if he doesn't have *Much* access to children. Any is too damned much for a BABY FUCKER.


Given that she lived, it's pretty clear he didn't do that. And you don't know fuck all about what he actually did either, so I'm not sure why you're playing a heavy hand here.

And, again, your outrage is a backhanded criticism of the entire idea of criminal reform, which is an ultra-conservative stance that would make even Ted Cruz blush. By the logic you're espousing, thieves shouldn't be allowed near other peoples' possessions and murderers should never be around another human being. It's a ridiculous standard.

Justified? Justified how, exactly? He served his time, disclosed his crime, and was in a position where he was benefiting society. If he was good at his job -- which he likely was, given that he was put in that position -- it's ludicrous to double jeopardy him for a crime where he already paid his dues.

I don't care. The failure of the system does not require my acceptance of BABY FUCKER.


What failure, exactly? That the justice system in a developed nation doesn't act like a third-world nation that stones people to death for their transgressions?

The last and obvious thing I have to say is that I don't have a problem with criminals in general getting a second chance. I can and have forgiven a lot of crimes. I do have a problem with baby rapists getting a second chance. Just baby rapists. That's my line. I'm very comfortable with that being my line. Because they raped a baby, they deserve to be shunned every time anyone finds out what they did for the rest of their lives. Because they raped a baby.

I dont think any rapists should just get to walk free like that.

Grown women have had psychological issues for a long time after.
Sometimes they struggle longer than the person is in prison.

Children sometimes have a different mindset for their entire lives. Women being scared of men because of it, or having difficulty trusting men/people in general, men having a higher need to feel accepted.

Or child abusers.
I think people shouldnt be so silent about what is happening or has happened to them because sometimes if you are you can get help sooner and I know saying thats is technically hypocritical but I say it because of those reasons and Id rather it be better in the future

This... this just explains the depths of you obtusely refusing to understand.


Which is emblematic of your attitude that doesn't care about any of the facts while, at the same time, want to get rid of the justice system in favor of a tribal vengeance system.

Zangulus posted...
There's really no point in responding to you when you want to be this close minded about why someone would have an issue with someone that thought fucking a four year old child was acceptable at the time.


Which is again arguing that ex-cons *never* be given a chance at reform and be forever judged on their initial crime, at which point why do you bother releasing *anybody* at all? And it's not so much that there's no point responding as it's a matter of you can't formulate a rational, coherent justification for your argument because it's complete horseshit and deep down you know it.

Zangulus posted...
No. Just no.


Except that's literally what you've been advocating.

I will not even begin to point out how fucking stupid comparing baby fucking to theft is.

Given that murder victims are dead forever, why would you advocate treating one more gently than the other? If you believe that one group should be freed after serving their time and reforming, surely the other group should, too.

If the argument is trauma, shouldn't that logically be extended to bullying? Otherwise it's strange that you put more emphasis on abuse than murder.

Holy fuck at your ridiculous nonsense. And I thought you were out of touch when it came to politics. At any rate, feel free to explain how a volunteer fire chief is a "position that will give him access to children" because you guys keep parroting that utterly stupid, false complaint as if you believe that repeating a lie often enough will make it true (which, again, kinda falls into your approach to politics)

And Ive done it enough that Im sure youve seen or could see it
And I dont have the energy to do it all again
To someone who defends rapists, doesnt take the crime seriously and doesnt want to, and Lives in some fake world where you act like women cant be hurt or abused because we have everything so perfect and easy

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2695751/
https://www.psycom.net/effects-of-bullying

If you're talking about activities with the potential for long-term damage to the victim, it certainly qualifies. That's excluding that it's a leading cause of teen suicides and a motivating factor in many mass shootings. So yes, if you're claiming that trauma and long-term emotional duress should be considered, wouldn't it be natural to include bullying?

Do you have any needles you've placed in haystacks that you'd like me to find while I'm at it? The fact that you may or may not have posted something somewhere is no guarantee that people have seen it or, for that matter, recall anything about it if they had.

I don't think you take our justice system seriously. The man got 10 years for his crime -- and, I should note, that the US generally sentences people for far longer than other developed nations (and even some undeveloped nations) -- yet you want... what? That he be executed?

10 years is NOT a light sentence. If you think it is, I'd invite you to spent a few months in a male prison (which, by the way, is objectively worse than a female prison) and we'll see how quickly you revise that opinion.

More importantly, in the 20 years since then, he hasn't re-offended. As far as criminal justice goes, that's the holy grail. However, I think you've made it pretty clear that you don't care about justice -- only vengeance. Unless the convict is horrifically killed in front of a crowd, I'm not sure that you'll be happy.

Guy did his time, came out of jail a new man, became a volunteer firefighter to try and do good in the world, worked his ass off to earn the respect of his fellow firefighters to the point where they elect him chief, and NOW people want to complain? Y'all dumbasses are just petty.
You wanna complain, then you can volunteer. Oh, forgot how lazy people are...
At the end of the day, you need someone who can do the job. If this guy has proven he can do it, then please shut the fuck up.
