Pedo sympathisers

Another controversial topic from Daz01 
I have seen several pedophile sympathisers on the Shroomery. What is your opinion on pedophiles and pedophile sympathisers?

Pedofiles usually recycle their history as a vicious cycle because most chesters were Probually molested or traumatized as a kid.
I know a person who touched his niece and his family exiled him - the dude was molested as a kid by his baby sitter , so I think many of these pedofiles have some sort of PtSD . Or Michael Jackson syndrome for having a fucked up childhood.
I don't think Michael,Jackson touched any kids. His life story was depressing

I feel like there's a difference between a pedo and a child molester.
If a pedo doesn't act on his urges or view/spread child pornography then he/she is doing nothing wrong and simply has unfortunate urges that most don't. If they act on it? They're a child molester, not a pedophile. What should they get? Prison. Forever.

What's with the Shroomery's latest obsession over pedophilia, started before the subway guy so I doubt that was even a factor.

I made these 2 topics over the "Young girls" thread and found everyones different, maybe morally wrong, opinion interesting.

Because as a society were better then that. The entire point of the current system is to forgo brutality like that in favour of more civilized punshiments.

Touching kids is wrong..end of story..I don't care to hear why some people might disagree and neither should you, as long as you ain't fucking kids and your kids aren't being molested, then let the people whose job it is to worry about it,worry about it for us.
Unless you are unsure yourself as to whether its wrong and looking for someone to acknowledge why you aren't a sick and twisted individual, then I don't get why you'd care to hear people's differing opinions on a fucked up subjext.

Yeah. Canada doesn't even have a death penalty for the most heinous of crimes.
And taking some statistics from some of the euro countries, it seems as though the less horrible the prison system is to its' inmates, the higher the rehabilitation rate. In the USA almost everyone who has been to prison becomes a repeat offender. I think it was Switzerland or Sweden where I read that they have almost none.

this thread is kind of a silly premise. either one says something obligatory like "burn em!", or someone says something supportive and get's abjectly ridiculed.
is there even room for nuance in a discussion like this?
girls around a certain age start having sexual feelings. sometimes girls come onto YOU, so what do you do...easy...unless you were really a pedo, that is...the easy answer is give them some courtesy and some understanding and move on, preferably without enacting any sort of fable or conversation, period, involving sex. just be chivalrous.

nah, he wants them dead as a doornail. he wants Rambo style search and destroy tactics involved here.
everyone should go on Netflix and watch "The Hunt", to get an idea of what can happen with the mindset of "kill the pedo" or "we're the pedo hunters". people are very frequently killed based on an accusation alone, when they were innocent of any crime.

I think the majority of guys have pedophilic urges, if we are talking about under 18. Ive wanted to fuck a 17 year old before, i think under 16 is where it becomes weird as fuck.
If you are a person who has urges to fuck actual children, i feel sorry for you, assuming you dont actually fuck a child, if you do then rot in hell.

Pedophilia is prepubescent. Ephebophilia is like 14 to 18.

oh yeah, ^ that's true. still, what i said still applies...i've never had any personal instance of a girl that young (adolescent; and that would be immensely awkward but but...), but it does happen to people sometimes. girls "fall in love" and they hear about sexual shit from some place, maybe TV, and then they get...confused.
it's a terrible frightening situation for anyone.

pedophiles are obviously very sick people, and since we have the means to keep them away from the public we should. but it seems to me that locking them up in prisons seems to create more problems. i think they should be kept in psychiatric facilities and, if possible, rehabilitated.

60 years ago they said the same about gays. They even castrated them and gave them electroshocks and lobotomies. Of course, you can't cure gay. 75 years ago gays were stuffed in concentration camps and gassed, the pink triangle is the "jew star" of the gays, as seen here:

There is a big difference between homosexuality and pedophilia. Pedophilia by nature involves involvement of undeveloped people who cannot truly consent. Homosexuality is between consenting adults.
And someone with pedophile urges raped me at age six and fucked up my life royally. I know what they are, I was a victim.
But still, its creepy to see this level of witchhunt and blind hatred in people. Its the same force that caused the lynchings, and burning witches at the stake.
Its sinister. Many don't even care whether they committed any ofense but want to kil, maim or incarcerate them for life based on an urge thet lies dormant in them.

I'm not saying give that power to the state though. It should just be legal for anyone to kill anyone who's a verified pedo.

i really don't understand this reply. i wasn't equating pedophilia with being gay. and just to be clear, i'm referring to pedophiles who act on their impulses. we should be keeping those away from society for obvious reasons, and prison is not the appropriate place to put them in my view.

I know you didnt intend to equate them, I just explained why it makes me as a homosexual nervous to hear the same shit that was put into practice against gays in the time of our grandparents, flung at another minority group.
Even if its pedophiles.
Its creepy to see blind hatred like in this thread, hatred not even directed against the actions of someone but their THOUGHTS. Life imprisonment, execution, lynching and castration for people who have an inclination to something but havent acted on it?

The 3 percent of males being raped is bs . Those are the ones who just admit it. There is such a stigma with males who are raped such as it can't happen . This is especially true in America. In fact when it does happen many turn into pedophiles or violent criminals.
It was a good read though . As for pedophiles I say kill them all. I am admittedly biased though.
Yes. The American prison system blows and needs to focus more on rehabilitation. This is especially true with drug crimes.
I don't think pedophiles can be rehabilitated. I recall a study that said even castration doesn't work as effectively as once thought. Personally I think they should be completely separated from the rest of society. That's my view on all rapists and murders . You shouldn't spend more time in prison for being a junkie then for killing someone or didaling kids
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

we're talking about a group of people who are prone to committing legitimate crimes against children. i do agree that mob mentality is not the best way to manage the problem, but the problem must be managed in some way, ideally the most effective and humane way.

Most people have the ability to not act on their sexual impulses when they're inappropriate, and I have nothing against somebody who has those feelings but chooses never to act on them. I actually do feel quite sorry for them. They got dealt a shit hand in life. It's sad. It reminds me how lucky I am to be sexually attracted to the physical characteristics of mature women (ie. a curvaceous body, large breasts, height, etc.) and that my personal boat can be floated in this society without harming others or incurring punishment.
As for those who cannot help but act on their feelings, throw the book at 'em. I do believe that the punishment for child molesters should be far greater than that for other forms of sexual assault which are directed at adults. The heightened vulnerability and impressionability of children is a huge aggravating factor which should greatly magnify the punishment for such a crime in accordance with the greater damage it causes to society.

i'm not talking about putting people away who haven't done anything. i'm talking about how we handle pedophiles who act on their feelings and commit criminal acts against children. and i'm not advocating execution of any kind because i don't think the state is justified in taking lives under most circumstances.

Has the film Crumb been mentioned in this thread yet? The brother of R. Crumb (the underground cartoonist) lived a sad, isolated life and eventually committed suicide in his 40's over his attraction to young boys, and he never once acted on it.

No, that was his other brother, the one with epilepsy. That guy was hilariously bizarre. He was a normal straight guy but he would have seizures that made him yank down women's pants and stuff. To be fair, not a great deal of an improvement on his self-controlled pedo brother's predicament.
You gotta wonder about some families, WTF. They showed R. Crumb's son in that movie and he seemed really healthy and normal. I wonder what the hell happened to the previous generation.

His mom seemed really cool, too. R. Crumb's mom was a total bitch.

>Its creepy to see blind hatred like in this thread, hatred not even directed against the actions of someone but their THOUGHTS.
I agree, its creeping big brotherism. So you would never punish anyone for their thoughts or for discussing something you are against?

There is a big difference between having thoughts and voicing them on a messageboard with rules 
I'm not nearly as banhappy as you might think I am. I banned 15 people this year, the majority for administrative reasons. Of those, 7 permabans, all for administrative reasons like spammers, ban requests, illegal trades, etc.

What are the rules against expressing ones thoughts? They seem to be unwritten.

If those thoughts are racism and you do it in the Pub, there may be a conflict with the "absolutely no racism" rule.
Interestingly, in your long career of getting banned, I never banned you once. Don't believe the hype.

IMO there are not nearly enough bans getting handed out in the pub. The racism in particular has gotten extremely bad, because the shroomery has swallowed the myth of colorblindness hook, line, and sinker. Moderators don't seem to understand that a post can be flagrantly, obviously racist, even if it doesn't use racial slurs or directly assert racial superiority/inferiority.

I never said you were a bad guy, asante. You seem fairly reasonable. The mods should follow your example.
Then we see those calling for bans on anyone who disagrees with them.

I wish the Shroomery was so big we could compensate our moderators financialy. Right now its all volunteer work and they do a fine job, for the most part. Everyone has his off days though, like me and my love & unity sticky

We're not talking confusion here, we're talking obvious, directly stated racism that doesn't conform to the incredibly narrow definition of racism posited by colorblindness.

i've seen it but i don't recall knowing that about his younger brother. in the film he is definitely a weirdo.

To tell the truth, his whole family was weird. Kind of a sad situation when Robert Crumb is the normal one.
