GERRY ADAMS MP MUST FACE CRIMINAL CHARGES ! As a Dane living in a Scandinavian country this is unbelievable - considering its was not happening in the 19th Cent. I simply can't understand why the Irish people vote for political parties who supported child rape in Ireland the politicians in Belfast in their dreadful wrongdoings. Tommy Christensen - Denmark So let’s have a look at the long-term impact of Irish child torture, that Irish politicians like Gerry Adams cover up and Irish voters still vote for. Trauma associated with abuse and rape when experienced in childhood, produces a neurobiological impact on the brain, causing dysfunction of the hippocampus, amygdala, medial prefrontal cortex, and other limbic structures. 87% of a clinical survey of adults abused as children had “serious” sexual problems, as opposed to 20% of those without a sexual abuse history. 62% of pregnant female adolescents were found to have experienced abuse, attempted rape or rape before their first pregnancy. Child sexual abuse is high among those seeking treatment for anorexia nervosa. Approximately 20% of abused children are convicted for serious juvenile crime such as theft, auto theft, breaking and entering, burglary, or assault.Teenagers with alcohol and drug problems are 6 to 12 times more likely to have a history of being abused and 18 to 21 times more likely to have been sexually abused than those without alcohol and drug problems. Survivors of childhood sexual abuse have 3.5 times more learning disabilities than non-abused women. These are just a few of the consequences of child abuse. It is an Irish national disgrace that the issue of child abuse and rape is not regarded as a major problem in Irish society after hundreds of millions spent on inquiries and high profile politicians shown to enable the cover up, endangering children in many youth centres, instead of the problem being addressed as part of the national agenda. Irish people are conditioned by the church and the political thugs to keep their mouth shut but its time to speak out now. The more survivors of child abuse and child rape that make their voices heard, the more we can generate real change, not only in our own lives but in the lives of children who are suffering today and children of the future. I encourage each of you to comment and organize starting with facebook groups and protests about what should be done about, NOW ! http://youtu.be/9jHqndf9Kx4
