Guess Who’s Mixed Up In Duggar Family Sex Crimes Now? Hobby Lobby, Of Course!

According to the official police report, after Josh Duggar’s parents found out he was molesting his sisters, and they spent a year doing NOTHING about it, Jim Bob Duggar sent his son for counseling with a “family friend” who was renovating a building in Little Rock, Arkansas. It turns out the program Josh went to was the Basic Life Principles Training Center, led by none other than Duggar family BFF Bill Gothard, the creepy man who, as your Wonkette reported Sunday, “coincidentally has been accused of sexual abuse and harassment by more than 30 teenage girls.” Gothard’s Advanced Training Institute (ATI), the homeschooling cult the Duggars love so much, teaches, among other things, that little girls who get sexually abused probably share some of the blame, for being gross and naked sometimes.

But here’s a fun fact! Arkansas courts ALSO sent juvenile offenders to Gothard’s programs, housed in an old VA hospital in Little Rock, donated by some other good friends, the Green family, owners of Hobby Lobby. Yes, THAT Hobby Lobby, the arts and crafts store that has very sincere religious beliefs about sex and how ladies shouldn’t do it, except for when they are married, to make babies for Jesus. Sound familiar? But Hobby Lobby also believes, apparently, that if boys do sex to girls, it is because the girls tempted them to do it, so the boys should have a special place to go to learn how to not be tempted to diddle their sisters. So Hobby Lobby gave Gothard this nice building where he could teach that kind of thing:

Shortly after the institute acquired the building, Gothard began renovating the space, saying it would be used for the Little Rock Training Center, which would house “court-referred youthful offenders in the organization’s Bible-based rehabilitation program,” according to an April 2000 article in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

Gothard resigned as president of the institute on March 6, 2014, after being accused of sexual harassment of female employees.

Huh! Wonder how somebody as gross and creepy as Bill Gothard got all that official endorsement from the state, and how theoretically non-religious courts might think it’s okay to send juvenile offenders to a guy who thinks when little boys change little girl babies’ diapers, that the girls share responsibility for any subsequent abuse that happens, because they have VAGINAS and they’re RIGHT THERE. If you are thinking “Hmmm, I wonder if Mike Huckabee has anything to do with this,” you are wearing your thinking pants correctly! It turns out that, as Arkansas governor, Huckabee thought it would be great to use Gothard’s teachings and programs for … just about everything!

1. So Huckabee is best buds with Duggar the Diddler, Peddo Teddo Nugent, AND this Gothard creeper?

Huckabee hearts the chomos.

11. and don't forget...

…that Huckabee's own son--has exhibited some very odd behavior that is usually reserved for sociopaths. He stabbed and hung a dog.

I think there's some serious abuse going down in this entire network. And they're all connected and covering for each other.

Why else would anyone come out so pro-pedophile?

They're all telling us to just get over it, because the Lord has forgiven Josh. That's denial about what was done. That's the denial they tell each other--about their own crimes and abuse. God has forgiven them, so it's ok.

Another one of the relatives said that most people would engage in these crimes, if they could get away with it. More pedophile thinking and rationalizations. They believe that everyone does this stuff.

These people are pathological, and I'm betting they're all pedophiles. And they're stupid too, if they don't think we know. The cops they know are pedophiles and the men who run the treatment centers that they send their kids to--are pedophiles as well.

It's just too much.

3. PeasPerfect!

I hate to jump to conclusions but couldn't we include almost every Republican candidate for any national/state position in that pod?

Because every current Republican has never taken a position that humiliation and subjugation of women is a moral fault, is an ethical error, is against their own personal beliefs - can't we hold all Republicans to the same pea-in-a-pod judgement?

Unless some of you (Republicans) start to say "This is not what we mean", you are painted by the same broad brush of intolerance and hatred.

5. Makes one wonder

if dad had help. . .

[SoapBox]

6. Wow...and all rotten perverts to their core.

Let's see how long the ConservaTurds keep yapping out their support, as this thing gets worse and worse.

8. Are you kidding?

They'll set up GoFundMe sites for these monsters.

7. These are some truly fucked up people. You have to wonder what is coming next.

9. The cover up was an adult crime

Are the FBI going to investigate possible sex cries involving minor children? Are they going to arrest daddy Dugger ?

10. Take all of this, the kiddie-porn cop "counselor"

and the general aura of creepy evil around all of these people and even David Lynch would reject it as a ridiculously far-fetched notion for a script.

12. Yeah, and that cop was a mandator reporter...

…who never reported anything or charged anyone with a crime.

Does anyone actually believe that Mr. Duggar would send Josh to speak with a cop, without first knowing that this cop would keep this quiet. Throughout this entire situation, Mr. and Mrs. Duggar covered up Josh's crimes. They did nothing for an entire year. Then they sent him away. Then, they had him talk with this cop. Mr. Duggar knew this guy personally. He was a friend.

Mr. Duggar knew that this cop would keep this quiet and that he wouldn't report it.

Lo and behold, the cop--a family friend--turns out to be a pedophile who goes to prison for manufacturing child porn.

It's just so gross.

Any reporter who wants to make a name for him/her self should go after this story. Plenty of low-hanging fruit. This story practically writes itself.

These religious nut job pedophiles should all be prosecuted, with child endangerment charges for Mr. And Mrs Duggar--who failed to protect their daughters time and time again.

13. Spot on CC.

You know Jim Bob would never allow his kid to be arrested.
