Cardinal Roger Mahony Ignored Abuse of "Illegal Aliens"

Cardinal Roger Mahony of Los Angeles (pictured at left) ranks right up there in terms of high level Catholic Church clerics who have enabled and run covered up for sexual predator priests. Like most of the Church hierarchy, Mahony is also a total phony and hypocrite. A case in point: he pretends to care about Hispanic members of the Church - likely so that he can shake them down for money and claim their numbers of Church rosters to make membership appear stable, yet callously dismisses sexual abuse of Hispanic youths because they are "illegal aliens." Now there's Christ like action - not. Once again I remain dumb founded as to why people continue to brown nose and pander to such morally challenged Church leaders like Mahony - who some speculate may move to Rome to avoid potential legal problems in the USA in the same manner as Cardinal Law who was "punished" by being given a plum position at the Vatican so as to avoid possible prosecution. Here are some highlights from the Orange County Weekly:
*
For years, the greatest shield Archdiocese of Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony has used to protect his pedo-priest-protecting ass from the full wrath of the public is Mexicans, specifically of the illegal kind. His Eminence blesses marches for LA's many amnesty rallies, has spoken out against Proposition 187, SB 1070, and many other Know Nothing resolutions--and that's a good thing.
*
Critics have long claimed Mahony does this only out of convenience given the demographic future of the Catholic Church, and I actually now finally believe that after reading a whopper of a disclosure in a deposition just released that's gaining national attention.
*
The deposition--taken Jan. 25 of this year for a civil lawsuit filed on behalf of a sex-abuse victim by Newport Beach attorney John Manly, who has proven as much as an annoyance to Mahony as he has to Diocese of Orange Bishop Tod D. Brown--proves again and again what a pedo-apologist and protector the leader of Southern California's Catholics are, but that's not a new story. To me, the biggest shock came early in the deposition, when Manly asked Mahony what did he do when a priest confessed that he had molested boys. "He told me that they were two families of illegal aliens and they had left the Los Angeles area," Mahony responded.
*
That's right. He did NOTHING. The story continues in part as follows:
*
Oh, and for the record: Mahony also told Manly he didn't bother to try and find those two families and the sex-abuse survivors--you know, because who cares about Mexicans unless they can deliver the tithes and nalgas in the pews?
