Our attitudes toward paedophiles.

Stating that people disagreeing with you should stop because they advocate something that's currently illegal, then accusing people who disagree with you of trolling? My my, yours is an argument that stands on its own merits!

There's two issues here:

Firstly, you are making no intelligent addition to this thread. It's an highly emotive topic, and your posts are off at a tangent and irrelevant. Either stay on topic or start a seperate thread regarding whether or not the legal age of consent should be lowered.

Secondly, I didn't accuse people, I accused you. I feel fairly content that I am right as well.

I've no intention of having this thread dragged into a petty squabble. Either bear my points in mind and act upon them or don't. If you insist on being silly I shall simply report you to a Mod and let them decide.
 
All in all what are we saying now...We dont fully understand paedophilia and locking them up aint exactly the right solution? Or kill them with fire because society say so?

I've contributed intelligently to this thread on multiple occasions, and have no idea how a discussion about the age of consent is irrelevant to a discussion about paedophiles.

I think it's fair to say sex offenders should be punished with varying harshness depending on the level of their crime. Regardless of whether they are a paedophile or not.

Well it is fairly irrelevant unless we are talking about lowering it to under the age of about 13. Otherwise it's a given that paedophillic acts can only be performed with people under the age of consent.

To some extent i agree with you but what i just find uncomfortable with is the fact that - It is a condition, they didnt pick that choice and we fully dont understand it. Punishing them on that basis (or in conjuction with their "crime") seems a draconinan move in a democratic and civillised society.
 
Paedophiles have no place in our society :mad: they are a danger to children plane and simple petrol and a lighter, acid followed by a large hole in the ground ;).

Look at the mental damage that will have been infilicked to the child, also if they have had intercourse with a child then it's fair to say they should be locked up for the safety of other children

No we understand it fine and locking them up is the right way, they should just not be released though id they are still a threat to children.

But you're punishing them on the basis that they did damage to a child physically and/or mentally. Not on the basis that they are attracted to children.

In some ways it's unfair that they cannot act on their urges like other people can, but that's the way life is. It would be even more unfair on the child if they got a leaner sentence based purely on the fact that they were motivated by sexual impulses.

Its my personal opinion if you dont like it feel free to block me i really dont give a flying **** :)
 
Paedophile is a lose term.

It describes both serious sex offenders, and those who might have been caught looking at images of perhaps an older teenager. In my opinion, I don't think it's fair to compare someone who might have been caught looking at pictures of a 16 year old to someone who fantasises about toddlers.

Being a paedophile is not curable, it's genetic, and there are many who understand why it's morally incorrect and are able to control their actions accordingly. Conversely, there are scum who should be locked away until they die.

No we dont. There is a lot more than can be done. This guys will be perfectly normal if they live in a society where it is the norm to have sex with kids....

Try telling that to a mental patient who believes god has told him to kill someone...
