The secret depths of male wickedness are around us in every age. Robert Louis Stevenson warned against this in the book Treasure Island. It portrays an adolescent’s initiation into the depths of manly wickedness—and his boldness in fighting against it.
The sinister forces that generally flee the daylight penetrate the peaceable life of young Jim Hawkins. A succession of seafaring ruffians, each more rotten than the previous—Billy Bones, Black Dog, Blind Pew—arrive at his father’s inn, and bring with them terror and bloodshed, as they pursue the notorious pirate Captain Flint’s buried treasure.
Pelf, loot, plunder: That is what pirates live and die for. But this fascination with riches infects the good men whom Jim knows, and with Flint’s treasure map in their possession a select group of them heads out to sea in quest of a fortune.

Last summer, B. Duncan Moench delivered this brutal story about the rape gangs from the formal Inquiry documents. Excerpts:
The scandal continues to horrify not just because of the systemic sexual violence waged on children and teens, but because it reveals the deliberate sacrifice of vulnerable population groups who in theory should be able to count on the protection of the administrative state.

For over a decade in towns like Rotherham, Rochdale, and Telford, young native British girls—some as young as eleven—were groomed, drugged, raped, and trafficked by networks of immigrant men from East Asia. The young girls were first love-bombed with gifts and flattery, then lured into private spaces—plied with alcohol and pills—then passed between grown men who raped them repeatedly. Sometimes ...

Retired British Col. Richard Kemp told i24News on Thursday that he fears for the country’s future. If the government attempts to confront what he called the “Islamification” of Britain, including the rape culture, millions of British Muslims could revolt. “I think the end result of that is very likely to be civil war in Britain,” he said.
