The reason why so many “teacher of the year” award winners end-up going to prison for child sexual abuse is because they have a high degree of emotional congruence with minors. They are predators whose skill set is easily masked as one who understands the thoughts, emotions, and motivations of minors, giving them even greater access.
The reason why so many Forest Service workers end up being convicted of mail fraud is they have unusually high access to rural mailboxes compared to many city workers. This gives them a sense of anonymity when it comes to mailing things, so they’re more likely to abuse the system to defraud others.
In like which way?!
Umm, *woosh*?
Oh, yeah. It was a complete woosh. I thought that was a legit fact being dropped.
You’re not asking the right question.
Hmm… “what would forestry service people abuse the mail service for?” closer?
The question I was going for was “Do Forestry Service workers actually commit mail fraud at higher rates than other people or were you just giving a rationale for a statement that isn’t actually true?”
Completing their stamp collection?

I thought this was part of the article, but it isn’t. This ought to be a top-level comment instead of the post body text, as it editorializes the story, otherwise.
Do you have any statistics to back this up? Because while it sounds reasonable to an extent, it also sets a bad precedent for how we treat teachers that actually do exceptional service for their students.
Its such AI slop.
Those foxnews comments tho, lmao
Parody really has overtaken reality.
Tbh this is just Boomers being online. One of my favorite pastimes in 2014-2015 was going on Yahoo! News articles and seeing how long it took to find someone blaming Obama for the headline in the comments section. Note that I said how long not if. I never actually found an article that didn’t have at least one comment blaming Obama. I thought I’d found one that people couldn’t possibly blame on Obama when I found an article about a super Moon or something similar and I was legitimately surprised to see that there was a comment about how the super Moon was demonic and Obama was using it for dark rituals.
Thank you. That was some “wow” reading.
I was intrigued and read some. I think I irrevocably damaged my psyche.
Can you summer it for us so your sacrifice isn’t for nothing
It’s the democrats fault for not going after child molesters, and for BEING child molesters. Also of course it happened in California because no one there knows how the real world works. And then additional orders of magnitude of cognitive dissonance along those lines.
Just looked. Good gravy these people are brainwashed. They would totally ignore that there are far more religious child molesters than there are teachers who molest.
Teachers abuse students at a rate of 20-50% higher than Catholic priests. Not defending the priests or anything, but I think we forget how horrificly high the abuse rate of teachers is.
Bruh. Catholic. You have to add the other religions. They all do it.
You clearly didn’t read it. The rate not the raw number. Per the Dept. of Education, 5-7% of teachers are abusers. That is 20-50+% higher than the rate (i.e percent) priests abuse. The average school in America has several abusers in it.
Lemmy talks a big game about the Catholics, and damn does that church know how to run a cover up, but schools are frankly ripe for reforms and accountability.
More religious people rape kids than teachers—by far. Stop defending people who excuse their shit behavior with god.
the rate (i.e percent) priests abuse.

You might say there is a discrepancy between actual rate and reported rate.
Is it more underreported than the notoriously underreported abuse in schools?
For real, we are on a post where an abusive career teacher got a ‘teacher of the year award’ no doubt in part for her behavior around students.
I am not doing this to whatabout abuse in the Catholic Church. I left it and won’t be going back. But it’s so odd to bring it up on a post about a teacher getting charged, the school clearly not identifying the problem (she had been a teacher for 11 years, it had been going on for a year, they didn’t report it and even rewarded her behavior prior to the reports).
Schools have a serious systemic problem here too, and I don’t believe we should deflect every time it makes the news. That’s all.
Aren’t Catholic priests notoriously underreported though because of how defended by the church they are?

The real issue is, the catholic priests more often get away with it than the teachers.
Ok, I was playing a game where I tried to guess to the comments’ contents without reading them. Initial guess was the Manosphere Special: “Wish that were me lol”
But with your comment, I think they were saying something stupid like “Cali/liberals are all pedos”?
Its mostly “I’d kill them myself if that were my kid” and “Dems hate the Catholic church and love teachers. This article proves teachers are the real pedo’s. Gotcha Dems!” with some “States alone should handle education”. Sprinkle in some stories of other kids abused by teachers and that’s most of it.
About as stupid as could be expected. My thanks and condolences for wading into the sewage.
Yes. And how this is all the fault of people straying from the Bible, and god. I nearly lost my lunch laughing
I don’t see any comments at all. Were they removed?
Where was this kind of teacher when i was in school ?
All my teachers look like north korea concentration camp guardStill. $20.00 is $20.00
She raped 11 year olds you fuck
All my teachers look like north korea concentration camp guard
Even in elite units such as the Storm Corps, North Korean soldiers are systematically underfed and malnourished, according to accounts from defectors shared with the BBC.
Emaciated?
lol if all the things wrong with that comment this is what stuck out to you??
Could you get stories like these from a non fox source next time?
