For Epstein Victims and Members of Congress, It’s Time to Put Up or Shut Up
Derek Hunter
I don’t want to be that guy who throws the red challenge flag on the victims of child sex trafficking at the hands of Democrat Jeffrey Epstein and his co-conspirator and fellow Democrat Ghislaine Maxwell, but someone has to. Someone has to because the “justice” these women are demanding, or are claiming to demand, is fully and completely within their grasp, and their grasp alone. Yet, they don’t seem willing to take it. Sooner or later, they have to put up, or shut up, don’t they?
There comes a point at which you either put your money where your mouth is or you stop talking trash. People who talk about how tough they are, or how good they are at something, often get really quiet when challenged to a fight or a game. If I didn’t hate basketball, if I loved it and thought I was a really, really good free-throw shooter and told everyone how I was the best at it, it’d look pretty bad if I passed on every $20 shoot-off I was challenged to.
I’m not trying to belittle the abuse the accusers of Epstein suffered, but some of them have come out and admitted to being escorts or adults when their entanglement started. If you were an adult, even if you were only 21, you’re a consenting adult. When I was 21, I was pretty stupid, but I was still an adult. It’s not any different for anyone else. When a handful of these women are demanding something – in this case, the names of abusers – that, at least theoretically, is fully within their ability to provide…and then they don’t, I have questions.
