"I guarantee you somewhere in Kentucky today a child was sexually assaulted that was left at home because there was nobody there to watch them," Bevin said, according to a video posted to Twitter by a reporter for WDRB-TV. "I guarantee you somewhere today a child was physically harmed or ingested poison because they were home alone because a single parent didn't have any money to take care of them. I'm offended by the idea that people so cavalierly and so flippantly disregarded what's truly best for children."

To back up this claim with factual data?
Blue_Adept
(6,402 posts)6. Just in the broad sense of statistics
Along the lines of someone is killed every X minutes, car accident every x minutes, etc. Nothing based in what actually happened, just that it had the potential to happen based on statistics.

(57,288 posts)11. My first thought, "Bevins making a confession."
jberryhill
(62,444 posts)12. Its so obvious
Sometimes just taking them for their word is revealing enough.

(61,712 posts)15. His words reveal that he thinks of children home alone as prey.

(57,288 posts)14. Facts would only interfere with his narrative.

(50,312 posts)5. What a sick thing to say. How does he happen to be thinking about it?
jberryhill
(62,444 posts)7. He has direct knowledge of the matter one supposes
How else could he guarantee it happened?
IMHO its a confession.

(4,875 posts)9. What bizarre logic
To assume such assaults only occur during school hours.
jberryhill
(62,444 posts)13. What makes you think hes making an assumption?
Maybe those are the only hours he can sneak away.
