I take a zero tolerance approach to all sexual crimes, but if a paedophile can be cured then that's fine, and they should be released (under close supervision) only after the cure has been shown to be successful. Then, they most likely won't reoffend. If they do then try castration, without anaesthetic. That's a zero tolerance approach right there.
What the fuck? Are you seriously suggesting torture?

Just because they are only serving for a single crime doesn't mean they don't have a past history that they have successfully concealed. Still, once they have been rehabilitated they should still be able to control their urges.
For the sake of argument, pretend they don't have a concealed history of offenses.

He should be castrated. A thief is forgivable(provided what they stole) and a murder can happen accidentally(car accident) but you can't accidentally rape three children nor can their lives be restored after what they have been through. Rapists and pedophiles do not deserve another chance.

Sorry, but I've read through your post multiple times now and can't understand what you're getting at. Also I like the way you cut out the second part of my post; as I mentioned at the end there is a divide between the people who can control their urges and those who can't: those who can't are paedophiles. I think that's the point that you're trying to make that, but I had already previously acknowledged that.
He is saying that most sex offenders can be rehabilitated and that punishing all of them with death/life in prison (literally) because a few of them who either fake being a changed person or go back into their old ways is unfair.

I realise that was at the end, but I don't see what that has to do with the apples story and my original post.

I find it very amusing that people hold such huge contempt for child molesters while murderers are just average bad guys.

You can get over being raped (I did!). You can't get over being dead.
This is the best statement I've heard on one of these things yet.

Sorry, I thought you were the guy I originally quoted. He said that once you molest a child, you will never not seek to molest children again. I said that this was a load of bullshit and that child rape, like any crime, is something you can recognize as a mistake and stop committing after the first. My reply to you was just an elaboration of my reasoning.

But on the subject, "pedophile" is not the right word for that. "Pedophile" means "sexually attracted to prepubescent children" and nothing more. There are plenty of pedophiles who never harm a child or even look at child porn.

Allow me to present my three step plan to curb all paedophilia

1. Set up lure sites to catch the bastards
2. Tie a rope around their nadgers with no hope of removal
3. Throw them off of the nearest pier/cliff/skyscraper with said rope tied to something immovable.

All rapists apply to same office.


On a slightly more serious note though i fail to see why we have not yet fully implemented the chemical castration treatment for such offenders. Countries where it has have shown remarkable reductions in reoffending rates and there is complete control over the punishment because it is reversible.

That's because they have no balls.

I don't know, it just seems an awfully unneeded punishment to me.

Ferguson lives in the same suburb as me, apparently.

I think the act of child molestation is despicable, but I also think that the way the public are treating him is also deespicable. A two-edged sword, really.

On one hand, it's a guy raping a kid, on the other side, it's a mob lynching an elderly man.

Quite a moral dilemma there; I think the best answer is that they're all just as bad as each other.

There is a reason why Rape and Peddophilia is a haeonous crime.
Its unforgivable.
Incidentally, you do know paedophilia is perfectly legal? Absolutely no law against it at all. You can be sexually attracted to who/whatever you want and the law won't touch you.

Now, ACTING on those urges and molesting kids - THAT'S illegal.

Yes I do.
I'm pretty sure the topic is on those who do...

Heinous is not a classification of crime.
I know its not.
I never said it was I sid it was CALLED.
A heinous.
Heinous is not a noun.

Also, I'd like to say while I'm on the topic of correcting you that plural nouns deserve plural verbs. Rape and pedophilia are, not is.

If they've been rehabilitated, yes. Whether they've been rehabilitated or not is the real question.

I leave now, this and other threads of its kind do not end up well.
