In the wake of the Josh Duggar sexual abuse scandal , Jessa Duggar defended her older brother in rather bizarre fashion. She admitted that Josh had touched her inappropriately, but she also stated that he was a “sly” molester who groped his sisters in such a way that they were unaware that they were being abused. While that may be Jessa’s most controversial remark to date, anyone who follows the 22-year-old expectant mother on social media knows that she’s never been one to worry about pissing off her critics. Take Jessa’s latest tweet, for example: The cartoon, of course, is mocking the recent controversy over the killing of Cecil the lion . Clearly, Jessa is suggesting that instead of attacking Walter Palmer, the world should be focused on more important issues, such as reproductive rights. (Like the rest of her family, Jessa is vehemently pro-life and once compared abortion to the Holocaust on Instagram.) We like to keep things light and gossipy around here, so we won’t get into the abortion debate, but we will take issue with Jessa’s argument that concern over the killing of protected animals for sport somehow distracts from more pressing matters. You could easily go to ESPN’s website and comment, “Who cares that the Yankees play the Red Sox tonight?! ISIS is on the move!” but doing so would demonstrate a fundamental lack of understanding of human beings’ ability to care about more than one thing at a time. Like, we could say, “Jessa shouldn’t you be spending less time tweeting and more time helping your husband find a real job now that your family’s reality show has been canceled ?” but that would be dumb, because there’s clearly enough time in the day to do both. Seriously, though, we hope Ben’s looking for a legit gig that can support a family, because that baby is on its way, and it doesn’t like the Duggars will be back on TV any time soon.
