Will Beback's fans are legion, and I wanted to make sure that none of them miss
this classic moment.
I have to rouse two cheers for Beback for pointing out that the Franklin child prostitution ring thing was a CLASSIC bullshit child-abuse witch hunt like the McMartin preschool thing. One of the "victims" was sentenced to a long term for perjury, and that's very rare. You hardly ever see anybody go to prison for pure perjury. As a lawyer once told me, there's ordinary perjury, and then there's 24 kt gold-filled platinum-plated diamond-studded perjury. Only that last kind makes courts take notice, since people lie in testimony all the time. So this must have been something special and rare indeed.
Anyway, if LaRouche supporters took the Franklin allegations seriously, which they seem to have done, then they have a mighty amount of egg on their faces, and a pile of humble pie with crow to eat. For shame.
