Dear Director Lynch:
I hope this message finds you well. I am going to offer up a great number of opportunities for self reflection today. You need to know how the rest of the world sees you. Living in an echo chamber seldom works out for anyone.
Originally, I thought a letter like this was two years away. We have a Supreme Court that hates women. We have State Legislatures that hate women. We have numerous other organizations in the nation that hate women. You were somewhat down the list. Then, as if the universe guided the appearance, Providence City Councilman Narducci started drawing attention to himself.
This is a human that uses the N-word. This is a woman that uses language to demean women directly, especially black women. This is a human that does not hold to our core values and yet uses the “D” in front of his name to get elected. This is a human that beat up on homeless people. Of course this human is a member of the Knights of Columbus. Not only is he a member, he brags about his 4th degree status.
When I was a kid, my dad was a Knight. I used to hang out in the hall. It was my first “bar”. It’s also where I learned to play shuffleboard. As an altar boy, I thought the Knights were just a cool collection of guys hanging out.
I even knew the origin story. Columbus was picked because he was a Catholic that Protestants bragged about while discriminating against Catholics the rest of the time. Made sense to me.
Then came my college years and I read his journals. Whipping girls before raping them was his thing. I can somewhat understand that I suppose. Oh wait, he wants them to be 13 years old. You named yourself after a rapist of 13 year olds?? Wait, it gets better. You protect a monument to the pedophile known as John Paul II. Even though you know he’s a pedophile who protected others, you routinely meet in a church named for him. What is that supposed to tell young women??
I suppose when we were taught to treat women as second class citizens this was all just alright. However, in 2022, we expect more. There should not be statues nor should there be organizations named for a guy who masturbated while thinking about raping 12 and 13 year old girls. There should not be an organization that protects priests that regularly serve hosts with ejaculate on them. There should not be an organization that protects the Bishops and Cardinals that recycle those priests through magic Dioceses located in Indiana and Kansas. You already had so much going against you and then a forced birth pig with a love for the N-word told the world he was one of you after taking a shot at homeless folks. Congratulations.
Can I let you in on a secret?? We know your whole act is a fraud. We know you tell the world about these dwindling charity efforts that go side by side with your insurance scam. What you don’t tell the world about is your need to try to scare women going into abortion clinics to get cancer screenings. Your organization routinely parks itself outside of places where women seek health care and engage in intimidation. When not doing that, you’re engaged in helping recycle the molesting priests. No wonder you watch over the John Paul II monument.
Still, you were further down the list. Then Narducci showed up. We want to know if you have done anything illegal with him. He’s a grifter but that’s not your thing. Has he engaged in illegal abortion protesting through you?? As a 501-c-3 organization, you’re not allowed to engage in any form of politics. Has he helped hide molesting priests with you?? Of course in his case, we would be looking for instances where it was black little girls that got molested. That would fit his behavior pattern.
If we find out you have engaged in any of those behaviors, we will immediately ask who your attorney is. Then we will file a bunch of complaints and lawsuits. You can resume your fraudulent frontal positioned charity work as you see fit. You might enjoy it.
It is not all bad news. You could choose to repent. I know how hard this would be so I do not expect success. However, you have two choices. You can look like a small dicked bully who enjoys scaring women and victims of pedophilia or you can grow up. I had to get clean and sober one day. I had to decide to manage my mental illnesses one day. You need to make the same journey into brutal truth.
The name has to go first. You guys have to find another Catholic that Protestants celebrate. Otherwise, we’re going to start teaching little kids to walk up to your crew at Mass and ask them why they’re carrying whips, a Columbus favorite, instead of swords. Columbus made sure everyone else killed all the indigenous people. No statues, no buildings with the name, K of somebody else.
Then you have to promise, literally council by council, that the abortion protesting is over. You will respect women. You will respect health care. You respect the law. You can no longer stand next to Bishop Tobin – a noted defender of the pedophile. If you stand next to him at Mass, we take your photo. Please note, I said if you engage as his protector at Mass, not just going. 68% of Catholics are Pro Choice and cool with gay people. The problem is not going to Mass. The problem is playing for team pedophile.
We will take your photo. We run it through a DMV database. We file various APRA’s and FOIA’s regarding your business interests. We act appropriately in turn. Since we are only using political tools and the free market, we are not breaking the law. We are creating an environment where protecting a leader of pedophiles becomes expensive. Everybody has a number. It is in our interest, since we support women’s right to their own health care and are not fond of 12 and 13 year old girls being whipped before they get raped, to discover what that number is.
Having Narducci around just is not worth what he is going to cost you. I do not know if you have a prohibition against the use of the N-word but you might want to add one. That way you can remove him easily. Otherwise, he is just going to send more people in your direction. Whenever some rural red state takes advantage of a stacked Supreme Court and we want to retaliate in response, combined with Narducci’s presence you cannot help but be first on the list. It is time to be an adult.
In reality, these conversations should have started long ago. Once Columbus’ writings became public, all the statues should have been removed and your organization should have started a vetting process. Yes, I know there are folks close to your organization, see Mayor Polisena in Johnston, who believe that the whipping and rape of young women is part of “Italian Culture” however they are few and far between. You need to draw upon the courage to do the right thing.
Thank you for your time and consideration. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
In Hoc Signo,
