No they are not and no they do not.
I thought they would come out with something like the child has a right to have sex with the one they love... or some bilge.
No.
Pedophiles deserve to locked away for ever.
They do not deserve sympathy, they deserve disdain.
When is being born a defense?
Total bull - no one is “born that way”! People - & I use that term loosely - who abuse children simply are failures at getting adults... as there is no pedophile or “child abuse gene” nonsense. Folks who abuse children are sadists not a “sexual orientation”! Next we are going to hear about how rapists are “born that way” too & that we must “understand” them & supply them with victims for their perverted & abusive “alternative lifestyle”. There seems to be an agenda at mainstreaming all sorts of perversion.

They should be kindly and sympathetically put out of our misery.
True compassion for them would be to prevent them from committing barbaric acts on children. The only realistic way to do that is to lock them up for life.
They deserve to be pushed off a fourth story balcony into a pile of razor wire 5 rolls high and 5 rolls wide.
let the bastuhd lay there and writhe in the hot summer sun for two days and then I’d release 5 gallons of Scarabs next to him and a flock of crows....
Your mileage may vary...
I'll be he was...
Seriously though, Paedophiles certainly deserve sympathy if they are resisting their urges (which no-one would choose to have), but for those who act on them, no.
Unfortunately, I suspect that this call for sympathy is not about trying to cure them of their paedophilic urges, and the ultimate agenda here is to actually get them to embrace their paedosexuality.
Considering where the situation with homosexuality was 50 years ago, and where it is now, it isn’t beyond the realms of possibility that sexual morality will mutate out of all recognition to present-day norms once again.
they belong in prison with Bubba as a roommate....
People are born with a propensity to sin. Does that make it right? Why not then legalize everything from murder to embezzlement?
One thing this is not is surprising. It has been discussed right here on FR where society is being led as each and every thing that used to be a sin is explained away.
I think rapists are born that way and we should give THEM sympathy. /s
I doubt Jeffrey Dahmer’s parents taught him how to be a a murderer, a cannibal, and a pervert. It was probably inside him from the start. Of course some people have a predilection for certain criminal behavior the same way many people have predilections for all sorts of weird behavior. It’s the nature vs. nurture thing again. Sometimes nature wins out. But even if it is nature, societal sanctions (lead, rope, electricity, etc.) are strong cures for all sorts of criminal behavior...like pedophilia.
Believe it or not, that line got a big laugh from the audience. We are about to witness the next big leap in sexual license.
See how the gay “born that way” argument leads to this slippery slope? I always knew it would.
Told ya so!! Not a whisker’s difference between a gay and a pedophile. They can’t help it, we should love and include them too. I’m waiting for a formal announcement from the Episcopal Church.
