If you ever wonder how the apparent flag-shaggers who trigger stressed people hope to make money out of the pitiful proceedings then give this story a read, shades of 'Demon Copperhead'.

Sounds like a deflection tactic: "Look, paedophiles! Ignore the thievery and drug dealing!".

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

I think it's more nuanced than that, hence my 'Demon Copperhead' reference (best selling novel by Barbara Kingsolver that channels David Copperfield to 1990s Appalachia and, amongst other things, the Opioid epidemic.)

Bad lifestyle choices, lack of economic opportunity and manipulative quasi-political opportunists leading desperate people into blaming easy targets - if that isn't a little too broadbrush.
