Danish pedophiles in UK spotlight

A series of reports in Britain have highlighted the freedom of Danish pedophiles to promote their cause across Europe

The BBC's flagship radio news programme 'Today' has set sharp focus on what many claim to be a case of freedom of speech being taken too far. Describing the Danish laws on freedom of expression as an 'international' problem, the programme highlighted the fact that Danish pedophiles are allowed to broadcast and espouse their lifestyle far beyond this nation's shores.

The series of reports, which were broadcast on consecutive days last week, come in the wake of a highly publicised case in which a British man was sentenced to 14 years imprisonment for killing a Danish pedophile. London-born Stephen Hoath, who has lived in Denmark for the past 13 years, claims he and a friend shot the man because local police refused to take action when his nine-year-old daughter was molested. Hoath, 53, who has a terminal lung disease and faces spending the rest of his life behind bars, is appealing against the sentence. Britain's print media is also closely following the case.

The BBC report pulled no punches in describing how the legal Danish Pedophile Association (DPA) runs a website which promotes pro-pedophile views. The website, www.danpedo.to, features articles in English, Dutch, Italian, French and Danish.

The DPA is a legal organisation in Denmark, holding regular meetings, issuing press releases and lobbying politicians. Its website claims a difference exists between the sexual abuse of children and what it describes as 'paedophilia with erotic-sexual contact.' Amongst its claims, the society argues those who seek to prevent 'erotic' relationships between adults and children are, in fact causing more harm than good. According to one online article, 'sexual activities that children spontaneously engage in for the sake of pleasure and affection are not harmful & but a child can be 'harmed emotionally if a third party intervenes and becomes shocked by what has happened.'

Although the DPA claims that it is does not organize or act as an intermediary in any kind of criminal activity, its critics allege that it does serve as a focal point and meeting place for those seeking to commit crime. However, under the current law, police cannot ban the organisation. Instead the police have to find evidence against individuals and prosecute them.

The DPA claims that banning the organisation would only drive its members underground, further isolating those with pedophile tendencies. Critics, including the charity Save the Children, do not believe the DPA's claim that the website serves only as a forum. They fear that what they describe as outdated liberal attitudes are leading to 'vigilante'-style attacks such as that carried out by Hoath. 'I believe very much that they have sexual relations with children because they are so convinced that they don't harm children,' Save the Children's Danish spokesperson Kumo Sørensen stated recently.

Speaking to the BBC, Copenhagen Police Chief Per Larsen admitted that many in authority are deeply suspicions of the society's activities. 'They are very clandestine,' he said. 'They are well aware of how dangerous it is for them to expose themselves to society. So, it is very difficult to investigate them in this environment.'

The Hoarth case is not the first to put this nation in the international spotlight. In August last year, a pedophile ring uncovered in Denmark led to 20 arrests in the US, England and mainland Europe. Dubbed 'Operation Hamlet,' the investigation was launched after police were given information by Save the Children about photographs of a Danish man molesting a nine-year-old girl that were circulated on the Internet. In summer 2003, two high-profile child murders led for calls for a toughening of the nation's laws relating to freedom of expression.

excellent way of making a point.

The three top pedophile websites since mid 90's have been danpedo, NAMBLA, and Boy Chat (now called Free Spirits).

These sites are very dangerous on many levels... while some of the content can be argued as "freedom of speech" there has been overtly illegal activity by
Americans on these sites. Clinton never gave a crap about child porn or pedophile predators on the Internet and the problem had spiraled into nightmarish proportions by the year 2000.

[Rebellans]

Hey, they can't control who they're attracted to. Their sexual orientation is part of who they are. They were born that way. I mean, who are we to judge? </sarcasm>

[Vigilanteman]

'sexual activities that children spontaneously engage in for the sake of pleasure and affection are not harmful & but a child can be 'harmed emotionally if a third party intervenes and becomes shocked by what has happened.'

Doesn't this logic sound awfully like that used by Clinton's enablers when Monicagate broke?

The Brit should have been sentenced to 14 days.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Is this kind of thing where the proverb "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark" came from?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Oh, and ewwww, I think I will never buy Danish cookies again.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Clinton never gave a crap about child porn or pedophile predators on the Internet

Wonder if he viewed it. A sleaze who was not afraid to j*rk *ff in the Oval Office itself.

[HiTech RedNeck]

You should at least tell the city cops about it.

[hummingbird]

Yeah, try telling that to my wife. The sicko who brutalised her when she was little still breathes and lives in Destin Florida now. She still has nightmares, and she's 42 now.

I am so sorry, Darksheare. Please tell your wife I will pray that she, and you, are released from this pain.

[Darksheare]

She's now 42, happened when she was 9.
They'd act like it was He said She said.
Already saw such an case come down like that.
It would be great to see him get nailed for what he did.
And as far as I know there is no statue of limitations on this sort of thing.
But once again, there's been 30+ years between the crime and now.
Kinda hard to prove anymore without him coming out and confessing, or anyone else he's done that too coming forward.
That's, unfortunately, just the way it is.

[Darksheare]

Thanks.
She doesn't like to talk about it, who would, and it took forever for her to even tell me anything about it.

[BabsC]

even the "prophet' muhamed married a gir of 9.

Actualy they say he married her when she was 6 but supposedly waited till she was 9 to consumate.

Just sick.

[jordan8]

OK. who had the guts to click on the link?

Dude, you have sex with children!

[Valin]

Line forms to the rear!

"horse whippins to good for them"
My dad

[SkyPilot]

And they hate GW Bush too---gee, what a surprise.

[e5man_r_u?]

My wife and I will be praying for her as well.

They should send all of these "offenders" to US prisons.
They get a warm welcome there!

[Darksheare]

My baser feeling is that they should be removed from existence.
BUT, that's my baser instinct speaking.
Thanks.

London-born Stephen Hoath, who has lived in Denmark for the past 13 years, claims he
and a friend shot the man because local police refused to take action when his
nine-year-old daughter was molested. Hoath, 53, who has a terminal lung disease...

Somewhere Winston Churchill is smiling...to see a civilian put into action Winston's
saying "Take one with you" into action in a moral cause.

Pedophiles take note. Be sure your intended victim has no caring family or friends.
Especially ones with "nothing left to lose".

[The Old Hoosier]

This is the logical next step after sodomite liberation. After all, pedophilia is how they reproduce.
