Will the ‘Catholic Taliban’ say we’re sorry?

IN 2000, when right-wing Catholic fundamentalists were orchestrating a High Court injunction preventing the health board from taking the six Roscommon abuse victims into care, they were also vehemently opposing the introduction of the Stay Safe programme in primary schools.

This very gentle programme gives kids some guidelines about seeking help if they are being abused or bullied. I wonder if these Catholic Taliban types have the the guts publicly to apologise to these poor children for prolonging their living hell.
