Offensive writings
Having read yet another
article about University of
Missouri-Kansas
City's Dr. Harris Mirkin (4/1
METROetropolitan,
Monday, 4/1 "UMKC
scholar's views on pedophilia anger many"
), I felt impelled to must
express my outrage over UMKC's willingness to keep a
pedophile defender him on its
payroll.
Dr. Mirkin's vile campaign to legitimize "adult-child
sex" and to trivialize its impact on
child victims is practically criminal. How can a state institution like
UMKC give someone a stage from which to spew such tripe?
UMKC maintains that Dr. Mirkin's
views don't represent theirs, but one must ask... are they footing the
bill to send him to "pornography conventions" to slink around
with porno stars? Are they allowing him to make these statements from
campus? Do they let him teach this garbage? In their
the university's rush to appease academia's
"open-minded" intelligentsia, UMKC doesn't seem to care.
But we should. It'll be our sons and daughters who'll
pay the price in Dr. Mirkin's sexual utopia. We owe every child our
promise to keep this kind of destructive perversion beyond debate.
Dr. Mirkin is free to say what he wants. That doesn't
mean we're obligated to give him the platform from which to say it. UMKC
seems willing to do this. I'm not. And I hope other Kansas Citians won't
tolerate it either. Send a message to UMKC and Dr.
Mirkin. When it comes to our children - all children - hands off! |
