Lynchburg, VA – On Wednesday, August 17, Matt Barber, Vice President of Liberty Counsel Action, and Dr. Judith Reisman, a visiting law professor with Liberty University School of Law, attended a Baltimore, MD conference hosted by the pedophile group B4U-ACT. Around 50 individuals were in attendance including a number of admitted pedophiles – or “Minor-Attracted Persons” as they prefer to be identified – as well as several supportive mental health professionals. World renowned “sexologist,” Dr. Fred Berlin of Johns Hopkins University gave the keynote address, saying: “I want to completely support the goal of B4U-ACT.”
Highlights of the conference:
• Pedophiles are “unfairly stigmatized and demonized” by society. • There was concern about “vice-laden diagnostic criteria” and “cultural baggage of wrongfulness.” • “We are not required to interfere with or inhibit our child’s sexuality.” • “Children are not inherently unable to consent” to sex with an adult. • “In Western culture sex is taken too seriously.” • “Anglo-American standard on age of consent is new [and ‘Puritanical’]. In Europe it was always set at 10 or 12. Ages of consent beyond that are relatively new and very strange, especially for boys. They’ve always been able to have sex at any age.” • An adult’s desire to have sex with a child is “normative.” • Our society should “maximize individual liberty. … We have a highly moralistic society that is not consistent with liberty.” • “Assuming children are unable to consent lends itself to criminalization and stigmatization.” • “These things are not black and white; there are various shades of gray.” • A consensus belief by both speakers and pedophiles in attendance was that pedophilia should be removed as a mental disorder from the American Psychiatric Association’s (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), in much the same way homosexuality was removed in 1973. • Dr. Fred Berlin acknowledged that it was political activism, similar to that witnessed at the conference, rather than scientific conclusions that successfully led to the declassification of homosexuality as a mental disorder: The reason “homosexuality was taken out of DSM is that people didn’t want the government in the bedroom,” he said. • Dr. Berlin appeared to endorse the much maligned clinical practice of “reparative therapy” for homosexuals and pedophiles alike, saying, “If someone, for their own reasons, doesn’t want to live a homosexual lifestyle, I tell them that it’s hard but I’ll try to help them.” • The DSM ignores that pedophiles “have feelings of love and romance for children” in the same way adult heterosexual and same-sex couples have romantic feelings for one another. • “The majority of pedophiles are gentle and rational.” • The DSM should “focus on the needs” of the pedophile, and should have “a minimal focus on social control” and the “need to protect children.” • Self-descried “gay activist” and speaker Jacob Breslow said children can be “the object of our attraction,” referred to a child as “it,” compared the child to a shoe, and used graphic, slang language to approvingly describe the act of climaxing “on or with” the child. No one in attendance objected to this explicit description of child sexual assault.

It is certainly one of the goals. I believe the age of consent in Europe is 14 and the "progressives" here in the States have pushed a similar age of consent. So, older men and women would be able to target our children at the age of 14, and you could do nothing about it because the child, who at age 14 is NOT able to understand the consequences of their actions, would be legally at the age of consent.
If you think about it, this would mean that most of the Catholic priests who have been accused/convicted of child rape, would not have any legal problems. (Problems with the Church, yes, but legally what they did would be no problem.)
Right across the border in Mexico the ‘age of consent’ is 12. But at least we are not letting our country be flooded with Mexican voters, right?
In a just country, these people would be hanged.
Yeah, good thing that...
You are probably right!
This could be the “prophets” of mohammed speaking, advancing on another front.
Make no mistake, the homos are coming to a school near you to preach their deviance to kids from 1st grade on. This is now a part of the curriculum in CA—that progressive, bankrupt state to the west.

Mark my words, if the progressives have their way this will become the law of the land and those that oppose will be the enemy of “justice.”
“What Americans need to relearn is that there is no “live and let live” with sodomites. Sodomites and their lifestyle must be recriminalized. and the culture must show no tolerance for them.”
If this doesn’t happen, the sodomites will eventually have laws enacted to protect their right to deviant behavior with children. This has been going on in the bay area of San Fran for decades—see Nambla members openly marching in “gay” pride events.
I think 16 is a more common age of consent among the 57 states.
Yep, it is called rimming and felching. Never will it be reported, discussed by media in the US, or shown by homowood on a sitcom. The lifestyle is so disgusting that the public must be shielded from the details if they are ever to accept “gays.” Bravo to the Ugandans for exposing the details.
The most shocking moment I ever experienced from anything on TV was during the mid-’80s while watching the Larry King Show. There was a very creepy guy who was a member of NAMBLA, a group I’d only vaguely heard of. Not too far into the interview he came out with this statement:
“We have a right to have access to children.”
Getting the psychiatric diagnosis of pedophilia changed is probably the first step, then lower ages of consent, or eliminate it all together, then recognize the “right” of children to consent to sex with adults. They’ve been lurking and waiting for the right moment to push their agenda for decades.
These people are promoting criminal activity, why can’t the police arrest the lot of them?
Then it must be done deliberately and necessarily slowly. First, true originalists must be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court to replace the unconstitutional, "living constitution" jokes we now have. Second, a major push against sodomy must be reasserted by a state, and carried all the way to the Supreme Court. This could take a decade, and I don't think we have that long. But we must begin this process.
Three states still criminalize homosexual sodomy in their laws, just waiting for Lawrence to fall.
At the risk of sounding immature, this is freaking gross! Also evil.
When they gather for their next conference, would somebody please take off and nuke the site from orbit? It’s the only way to be sure.
Combined general and Maryland “Freak State” PING!
“Remove pedophilia from the DSM-V. It’s for the children.”
The sexuak degenerate community knows sexuality is a learned behavior, though they lie and demand the opposite be the accepted pespective. Now, as the sexual degenerates have been given greater freedom to be degenerates ‘normalized’ by democrat agenda politics, these same degenerates now want to teach their degeneracy to the young, knowing it is a learned behavior and must be installed early in childhood. It’s the new morality don’tchaknow, the morality of democrats.
At least one of the sick liberals on the SCOTUS has said openly that the age of consent should be lowered to twelve. But of course that old leftist crone is slowly dying off, to be replaced by an even more leftist justice’ like Kagan or other. Degeneracy is rife in America. It has become too accepted already.
Liberals are obsessed with their genitals and with having sex with children and being able to kill children. A very sick group of people.
Absolutely I know. Today I have already been using as my talking point at work with my co-workers, the FACT that to be a democrat you must hate children. Not only have they advocated genocide of those yet to be born, they also are running up the debt so bad as to steal the prosperity of future generations and of course to top it all off they want to promote policies to try and corrupt them all sexually to be homosexual or to be preyed upon by perverts such as this group.
Democrats are showing themselves more and more to be pure EVIL. It is unbelievable how far they are willing to totally corrupt our country and attack all morality. Even at the expense of the safety of children.
