New York Times calls for bankruptcy of Catholic Church.

A NYT editorial calls for re-opening the statute of limitations on sex abuse claims:

The Grey Lady just published another editorial on Sunday on its favorite topic: sex abuse in the Catholic Church from decades ago. This time the Times praises the state of Hawaii for passing a law to lift the statute of limitations for two years to file stale sex abuse claims and then lobbies Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York to do the same in an attempt to bankrupt the Catholic Church in New York.

How these ex post facto laws are constitutional is unclear. Particularly when they so clearly constitute a bill of attainder.
