I specifically remember there being a scare where someone spread the rumor someone was coming into our town in a van and trying to pick up kids
I'm pretty sure it was a lie, but holy shit did the community go nuts over that. Passing out flyers at church level paranoia.
Like listen people, the only way I'm getting raped at the [Catholic] school playground is if the priest invites me into the rectory. The only perv in this town is the priest.
