So you’ve posted a list of pedo’s from ‘The Right’, OK, that doesn’t change the fact that the person in my OP who’s sympathetic to those sick fucks, who is currently advocating that their label should be changed to Minor Attracted Persons in order for society to be kinder to them, is definitely not from The Right, so your point is?
My point is, that any attempt to garner sympathy for, or to somehow legitimize peaedophiles should be crushed immediately, because any complacency risks allowing a toehold for them.
It’s naive to just assume that society would never allow peaedophilia to be normalized/legalized, in todays current climate, anything is possible.
Remember, in the 70s and 80s, in the UK there was the Peaedophile Information Exchange, a group who openly advocated for the abolition of the age of consent, their supporters included politicians and they even received government funding for their campaign, admittedly their campaign eventually failed, but this was long before ‘minority groups’ were afforded the sacred cow status they are afforded these days.
It’s not too difficult to imagine what traction a similar campaign, if unchecked, might gain today, where to be different is to be special, and deserves special privileges and protection.
All I’m saying is, we cannot afford to drop our guard.
And just in case you imagine I’m only against Lefty child abusers, let me clarify you couldn’t be more wrong, I’ve stated my case before, that I believe people who intentionally sexually or physically abuse children (whatever their political leanings), and those who enable them, have crossed a line that there’s no going back from, they cannot be rehabilitated, nor do they deserve to be, they all need destroying, not sympathy and hugs.

It was you who wrote in your original post that “Certain groups (the left, of course)”, insinuating that ONLY the left and ALL liberals are sympathetic to pedophiles, instead of just stating that there are sick fucks out there. You made it a left/right issue, for whatever reason.

Your being silly, as long as there's parents, there will be tons and tons and tons and tons of resistance against legalizing pedophilia.

Move away from your bubble, the idiots of the minority on the other extreme of the spectrum are freaking you out.

Move away from FB, quit twitter, delete your youtube and Google accounts, and start fresh.

No parent would even consider legalization of anyone molesting kids, if there is a 1 in 100 million billion chance it might be their kid
i don't believe in jailing them, ( unless violence was involved) anymore than jailing a junkie or addict
they do need to be locked up in a hospital
normal people might have bad thoughts, but normal people do not act out on those thoughts

If only it was as black and white as “legalizing the molestation of kids”
The lines are blurred, on one hand there are people who would normalize the behavior of molesters, their right to be who they are, and to ‘love’ who they desire (as long as they are consenting)
On the other hand, there a people who argue that younger and younger children should be allowed to, and be encouraged to, make their own choices, to consent to things that if we’re honest, they’re too young to fully understand the implications of, sexuality and gender being prime examples.
My point here is, there are currently lines in the sand regarding both hands, lines that if certain parties are allowed to, would be shifted, and if shifted too much in the wrong directions, may allow the two hands to collide with disastrous results.

Yeah, I mean it sounds as dumb as allowing men to use girls bathrooms......... well on second thought!

Hang on a minute. Which bathroom do you use when there is only one, as is often the case in Cambodia ? Does that make you creepy ? (Probably not.)
Toilets and bathrooms in countries outside the US are quite often unisex. Why is this considered dangerous in the US and not elsewhere ?

When there’s only one bathroom (ie, containing a single toilet) you go inside alone (normally) and lock the door behind you, and that single door isolates the user from the public space.
Unisex bathrooms (where both sexes use the multiple facilities, possibly at the same time) are usually in professional/adults only environments (ie, no children, or very unlikely to be children using the facilities)
Where there are bathrooms for each sex, nobody with a penis should be using the females bathroom.
