WHAT DO GOOD MEN DO

Should we call him a man 
A demon or a pervert.?
Should we pull out our detectors
For predator alert.
A MAN without sagacity
impaired from his salacity
Creating insanity, a threat to 
earth and humanity 
Has the audacity, 
To pile up children to capacity.
Creating more insanity, 
a threat to earth and humanity 
Has the audacity to be smiling, 
while piling up children.
Baby’s Snatched 
From mommy’s arms
crying for their daddy’s.
Children stuffed in crates
All due to hate. 
Now in jails filled to 
Overcapacity. 
What do good people do? 
Do we only Watch? 
And do nothing
As Salacious
Contaminates thrones
While sitting in
The seat of dignity. 
Threatens integrity. 
Can we at least Chant;
” God save our Morality”!
Can we at least Chant; 
“God save our children”!

i agree with vicki. men who purposely hurt children should be punished for there crimes against humanity. they shouldn't be thrown in jail for the rest of there days but maybe branded or marked to warn unknowing parents of their children safety. my parents had no idea that we had a predator living next door to us w/o any knowledge. these men should be humiliated for what they did to innocent young children like me.
