UK Daily Mail ^ | February 28, 2017 | George Odling

Paedophiles should not face jail for looking at pornographic images of children unless they are a physical threat to youngsters, says Britain’s most senior child protection officer.

Officers should instead focus on the most dangerous offenders who have access to youngsters or are directing abuse online, said chief constable Simon Bailey.

Now go wash your hands with lye soap for even typing that phrase regarding the demon of Islam.

“In a just world, he would be a janitor.”

Actually, no, you are dead wrong. Extremely wrong. I’ve known many janitor type folks, none are child molesters or other criminal types.

And to take your comment literally, suggests it would be OK for him to be a janitor in a school.

You’re leftist combination of ignorance and arrogance is extremely insulting.

I would phrase it as: “In a just world, he would either be in jail or exiled to a Siberian type existence.”

I have zero use for child molesters, those in child porn and those that support it or make light of it.

Looking at it, guarantees that more will be produced.

I could “Give us your sources or go to jail” as they work their way up the line.
When they get to the people who actually made the child porn, though, it is time to get out the blunt stakes.

And now we’re actually discussing if child porn is bad on an international stage. I often wonder as a Christian where we put our line in the sand with society going to hell. If this is a hill we’re not willing to die on, to shut up these starting probes about normalizing pedophilia, to say “no more”, then we are lost. Then it’s just individuals to the lifeboats.

My first thought exactly. It’s pure evil to say that watching it harms no one. Children were harmed to make it.

I’ve heard, no way to verify it, that missing children are sometimes found by being seen in pornographic films.

Most homosexuals were sexually assaulted as children.

They want to normalize their behavior to attain better access to YOUR children.

I am thinking “Britain’s most senior child protection officer” should come under some scrutiny himself. To me, this boneheaded opinion means he is covering for himself or someone else. Look on his computer first.

He hasn’t been convicted of any crime, that’s why I said janitor.

But you are right, it is unfair to impugn janitors.

What I meant was, he’s getting a big fat government salary, he’s a blithering idiot (at best) and should be sweeping out alleys somewhere far from children.

The first thing they should do is start spelling it right. Unless w’re talking about foot lovers.

No need to insult janitors.

Someone check and see if he's related to the Podestas.

"...unless they are a physical threat to youngsters"

Notice "physical" threat. Nothing about emotional threat, psychological threat, etc. They could even "groom" future sex-kiddies by showing them porn, and they wouldn't yet be a "threat"??

And no mention of the hellish harm done to "youngsters" in the making of this porn. Everybody who is any part of that "industry," purveyor or customer, is answerable for the damages to the souls of these children.

It’s not a slippery slope at all. It is a staircase with each step deliberately taken.
