Guardian: Paedophiles are 'ordinary members of society' who need moral support
The Telegraph ^ | January 3rd, 2013 | Damian Thompson

Posted on 01/03/2013 3:55:05 PM PST by Salman

Britain's most persecuted minority have found a new advocate. An article this morning in the Guardian by feature writer Jon Henley addresses misconceptions about paedophiles, quoting one "expert" who believes that: "It is the quality of the relationship that matters".

No, this is not not some sick send-up on my part. "If there's no bullying, no coercion, no abuse of power," says Tom O'Carroll, "if the child enters into the relationship voluntarily … the evidence shows there need be no harm."

O'Carroll is a former chairman of the Paedophile Information Exchange with a conviction for distributing indecent photographs. The Guardian acknowledges this, but gives him a respectful hearing and points out that "some academics do not dispute" his views.

Purely Satanic influences. The amount of damage pedophiles do is immeasurable.

The only support they need is walking up the gallo steps.

The really sad part? If obama got caught boinking a 9 year old in the Rose Garden at high noon, THIS is how the MSM would spin it.

Any freakin pedophile that puts his hands on my kids will receive 11 warnings to stop (more if I can reload), in .40.

He's right. A sturdy gallows and a nice rope would provide all the support a predator who harms children needs.

Proper support is needed if you want it to work right.

(Bailey said that while he also found the notion “disturbing”, he was forced to recognise that “persuasive evidence for the harmfulness of paedophilic relationships does not yet exist”.)

I beg to differ. Just ask the ten percent of the population that is homosexual if they were sexually abuse as a child.
This attitude is disgusting. Does he really think Pedophiles are going to out themselves so they can be held accountable? Hope he’s not holding his breath on that one.

Not exactly pedophilia but sick just the same.

Just today our local news reported that a local man had been arrested for having sex with his 18 year old daughter. The news said that he had been recently reunited with her after the mother won custody when she was a little girl.

Apparently mother knew best years ago.

Santorum warned us about this. What’s next? Zoophilia / bestiality.

Then the author of this article would not mind having a paroled pervert share a room with his children as a 1/2 way house?

I beat you by nine seconds, but you chose a much better picture.

Read the article. You are misjudging the author.

He’s on our side.

Who are we to judge with our Judeo-Christian, hetero- and adult-centric prejudices?

This is just a logical extension of moral relativism: anything is permissible as long as you decide it is.

It wouldn’t surprise me to hear more so-called experts defend incest, bestiality, and necrophilia with the same arguments.

That's the trick though. If you redefine the effects as being equal and harmless, then presto, there are no harmful effects.

Thank You,

Either way those people deserve to a dance at the end of a short rope.
