ZD – the OP said nothing of the sort!!!! You are totally misconstruing his words!!! There is nothing whatsoever in anything he said or that anyone else here said that implies in any way that one should not protect the community from molestors.
Some of the posters here (mainly DY and LB and to a lesser extent, myself) have been trying very hard to be dan l’kaf zchus that you didn’t mean what you said, but so far you have given us no reason to believe that.
How can you misconstrue the OP’s words like that? He didn’t say it’s a chilul Hashem to not turn over a molester!!! His point had nothing to do with molesters and he certainly never said that one should not turn them over!
What he said is that its a chilul Hashem for the CR to post your post saying that people shouldn’t follow halacha! DY bent over backwards to try to say that maybe you didn’t really mean that and to give you an opportunity to take it back. I did as well.
You are confusing two issues here: 1. Should one follow halacha even when he doesn’t agree with it or understand it?
2. Do you think it’s possible that halacha would say not to protect people from molesters?
I think that most of us who are posting here think that the answer to #1 is clearly yes and the answer to #2 is clearly no.
From what you wrote, it sounds like you think the answer to #1 is no and the answer to #2 is yes. If that is what you mean, then that is a chilul Hashem (both answers).
Is that what you really think or were you not expressing yourself clearly, as DY and LB and I would like to believe?
I just want to make something clear: saying that one should follow halacha does not in way, shape, or form mean that one should not protect oneself from molesters. There is no contradiction between following halacha and protecting oneself from molesters. If someone thinks there is (as was implied from your words, although perhaps that is not what you mean), that is a chilul Hashem!
