Being a wingnut means there's something wrong with them at the core. Wingnutism is just an external symptom.

[font size=5]Minutemen Militia Founder Arrested on Charges of Child Molestation[/font]

Chris Simcox, the co-founder of the border control militia Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, was arrested Wednesday on charges of child molestation. The 52-year-old former kindergarten teacher is accused of having sexual contact with three young girls, all of them under the age of 10.

Phoenix police arrested Simcox Wednesday morning and booked him on two counts of molestation of a child, two counts of sexual conduct with a minor, and one count of attempted molestation of a child.

This isn't the first time Simcox has faced accusations of endangering children. In 2010, Simcox was accused of threatening to shoot his family, including his wife and her children. His third wife, Alena Simcox, described the ordeal to Phoenix police: ....


And, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Simcox was accused by his first wife, Deborah Crews, of attempting to molest their then 14-year-old daughter. ....


Prior to his “career” with the Minutemen, Simcox worked for 13 years as a kindergarten teacher at a Los Angeles school. He's denied the allegations of child molestation.

Wingnutism is just an external symptom.

When I saw the crowd at the DC Teabagger really yesterday my first thought was that most of those men are child molesters and rapists.

Clearly, I'd have nothing to do with him, whatsoever. He just has the "look."
