Mike Huckabee, taking the ever-popular "support the child molester" stance. I don't know how this guy never got elected president.
 
So I decided to check TLC Facebook page just to found these gems:
Just pull Josh. Show the rest of the family. The show shouldn't be condemned for his actions

So you will still show the programs about weird sex, a guy that has multiple wives, and other bad things but you won't keep a show about a family that has a real past and learned to forgive and move on without becoming bitter and entitled? Classy tlc.

That is absolutely ridiculous. This was resolved 16 years ago!! These are NOT new allegations. I sure would hate that things I did 16 years ago affected my life now!! Thank you Jesus, for grace!!

Why would you do that. It's a great show. Admitting to his mistakes just shows they are just like the rest of us. Not perfect. Own up to your mistakes, ask for forgiveness and learn from it. That's what they did. For goodness sake he was a very sheltered 14yr old who didn't understand and once he did he confessed and sought help.
Keep the show on. America needs to see that a family can be full of faith of love for our lord Jesus but still make mistakes. You just have to learn from it.

Oh my.....

Man, I'm really glad that Josh has been able to forgive himself and move on finally.


Well, it seems like the whole fiasco is tied up in a nice little package, then. I'm glad THAT'S over. Good ol' Josh, that goof ball. Well, seems he's learned and grown from this...

One has to wonder how many skeletons the Long Island Medium woman has in her closet.

I thought I read somewhere that her uterus prolapsed twice. Like maybe God is telling you to stop having so many fucking kids, at that point.
 
Welp . . . this is all around a horrible situation. While I'm not sure what else they should have done regarding a 14 year old (that damn border between child and adult), the whole anti-LGBT messaging is incredibly hypocritical. Yet I can't really say anything about this matter to my family because One of my aunts and her family know the Duggars personally--though they only met them in the last 3-4 years so I'm sure they never encountered anything this heinous.

Wouldn't surprise me if they were actual skeletons.

More dirt to the issue:

Jim Bob Duggar waited more than a year after his son, Josh, confessed to sexually molesting several female minors before contacting police, In Touch Magazine is reporting exclusively, based on information contained in the official police report.

What’s more, Jim Bob informed the elders of his church about Joshua’s actions and they waited three months before contacting authorities. The explosive new information is contained in a Springdale, Ark., police report obtained by In Touch magazine.


The report has been hidden since 2006 and was just obtained by the mag through a Freedom of information Act request. Jim Bob also refused to allow police to interview Josh when they opened a felony investigation in 2006. The Duggars star on TLC’s hit show 19 Kids and Counting.

In Touch magazine first broke the news of the Duggars’ underage sexual molestation scandal in this week’s magazine. (Note: Josh’s name is redacted from the police report but In Touch has confirmed the passages that refer to him.)

Other bombshells in the police report are: Josh Duggar was investigated for multiple sex offenses — including forcible fondling — against five minors. Some of the alleged offenses investigated were felonies. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were interview by the Springdale Police department on Dec. 12, 2006. The report says that James told police he was alerted in March, 2002 by a female minor that Josh — who turned 14-years-old that month — had been touching her breasts and genitals while she slept. This allegedly happened on multiple occasions. In 2006, Jim Bob told police that in July, 2002 Josh admitted to fondling a minor’s breasts while she slept. “James said that they disciplined (redacted, Josh) after this incident.” The family did not alert authorities.

Man, this thread is a sad story. Not just by the story in the OP, but by the fuckwads posting in here too . Unfortunately, that's not the minority.
