    I remember accepting candy from a man in a white van when I was six years old, in 1968. Afterwards I went and played with my friend. No rape at all, just candy. Life was simple and good.

      One year the school bus stop happened to be next to a guy who filled vending machines, so his garage was filled entirely with candy and snacks. Occasionally a group of us kids would go ask if we could pick some candy, which would have seemed more weird if the family wasn’t one we saw at church.
