The Jared Fogle case - Why we understand so little about child sex abuse [ WaPo Poor pedos article]
Vanity ^ | 08/20/2015

Posted on 08/20/2015 7:12:28 PM PDT by Yaelle

The article is the typical "these poor people are sick, they need help, we need funding to study pedos" BS. Skim it. But check out the (closed) comments section. Very interesting. Some of the commenters admit to being pedophiles. Also, commenters debate the differences between sexual interest in a mature LOOKING teen versus the prepubescent children. The article has one good point. Maybe we should allow pedophiles to get help from shrinks without them being forced to report directly, as long as the pedophile doesn't admit to actually touching a child. That is a good subject for debate - maybe some would be able to get help to keep them from touching and harming kids. Again, I am not sure if that is possible.

Because the left does not believe in the existence of evil.

Lefties try to confuse you with gibberish.

That’s what the “news” media consists of.

Correct. Knowing why they do it is not the primary issue. Protecting the children is. Period. No discussion on that.

There are only two ways of doing that. Lock them up forever, or execute them. Pedos can’t be cured, they can’t be “redirectd”. The only way to protect children is to remove them from society in one of those two ways.

A friend’s wife, very far left leaning, worked as a supervisor in Florida child services some years ago. She agreed 100% with what I have said.

As regards the lib morons ever legalizing pedos. That will be an invitation to a wave of vigilantism that will rock this country to the core. No law will stop me from stopping a pedo.

Does this article apply to 24-year-old FEMALE school teachers with underaged teenage boys from their classes?

Or is this more Female Imperative run amok?

I do hope Subway has the good sense to discontinue their “Eat Fresh” slogan.

The whole idea of fornicating with a minor is repulsive.

The idea that an adult would rob a child of their innocence, by engaging in sexual contact is beyond disgusting. Years ago these people would be killed by vigilante justice, not given sympathy.

This Jared Fogle POS should hang as an example to others.

He added, “Nobody chooses to be attracted to children.”

That was the excuse they gave for Sodomites, it is biological.

No, pseudo science seems to believe that all brain activity is “natural.” Regardless of how it might encourage people to break bounds of decency and harm innocents.

I agree. I feel personally angry at Jared because he knew what he was and he was still comfortable going on tv like some kind of example to follow.

He used to appear on The Biggest Loser, which was sponsored by Subway, and the heavy contestants would gather around him like a hero because he achieved their goals. How dare he? He pretended to be Everyman who was able to lose over 200 lbs, and after the show he was probably hitting up hookers looking for young girls. Sick.

I do wish that conviction on two separate counts of child molestation or sex with a child was a capital crime. In case someone is falsely accused, I’ll allow someone to live after only one conviction. But that is it. Two victims or two separate times, and they should leave the earth.

You mention the marriages between 14 and 15 year old brides 100+ years ago. These were never about sex, or in many cases even love. They were about family, the preservation/expansion of wealth/land and the benefit to the children that such marriages created.

An experienced/accomplished/wealthy man of 30+ years would court and marry the 14 or 15 year old daughter of another prominent/wealthy family. They would have children who had wealth, land, and social stature.

In these cases these are just perverts....execute them.

“No one chooses behavior that is socially unacceptable” is the mantra chanted over and over by the homosexual in the world. It was designed to tire out and debase the morals of man further. To increase the divide between the Divine and Mankind.

There is no going back to yesteryear when we had a “fat and happy life, wife and kids. Men cannot fix what is a spiritual problem. We can barely fix our own toys let alone our twisted souls. Judgement is coming, and that doesn’t have to mean Final Judgement.This is but the natural consequences of our fall away from humility and responsibility to God the Father.

The fix happens one person at a time. One Father to raise upright children. One Mother to teach love, patience and what the schools do so poorly. We outsource the most important things in our lives, then wonder at the shi’ite job that has been done.

The answer is simple, as simple as that preached by a great One 2000 years ago. Repent, turn away from your base desires and strive to live as if your eternal soul is at stake, because it is.

I agree with you, but more recently, “kids” did fall in love young and marry. My grandfather was 18 and headed to college and my grandmother was graduating high school at 16 and they married. It wasn’t that unusual in the earlier decades of the 20th century, and they were from middle class families.

A person I know was just short of 16 when he had relations with a girl of 17, who was about to graduate high school; naturally, she became pregnant, and suddenly we have a soon to be high school junior who is not only maried, but also a father, needing a job after school to support a family...

Quite a less than ideal situation, but happily it all worked out for them, and they are now doting grandparents...but geez, talk about tempting fate...

I think the women who abuse their power over young hormonal teen boys are just as sick and depraved. Smart people understand that these gangly yet hyper hormonal boys are still kids inside. They still watch cartoons. These are KIDS even if their bodies are newly men. It’s abuse, not a true mutual adult relationship.

And they deserve the same punishment as men.

Yeah, I bet the board room is full of ad guys coming up with new slogans as we speak. Type.

“Eat morally clean!”

“Fresh SANDWICHES!”

“Our fresh food legally consents to be eaten!”

I’m sure they will come up with something catchy.
