Pedophile says 'two strikes' law will cause deaths, page 2

I mean a Heroin addict that robs people for bump money can walk in to a clinic, say he wants to get clean and will do no jail time.

Are you seriously comparing a herion addict robbing people to a pedophile raping children ?

The guy has a point the two strike law may make them more prone to kill their victims, but something has to be done to try and stop these people from hurting innocent children. The problem is nobody has any idea what will work.

That type of thinking is exactly why children are being murdered, so in a sense responsible for the deaths of children. Just as the War on Drugs is responsible for the higher crime levels due to the increased value of drugs.

Instead of pounding our chest like Neanderthals we should attempt to identify what creates this anti-social behavior and approach it as a mental illness and perhaps stop it before it happens.

You can kill and lockup all the rapists you want, but there will be new ones born everyday, so your solution will do nothing but ensure more children will die.

What's so wrong wth sex with a 12 yr old?

If the father agrees and its legal in the society then is there a problem with it?

The problem is that a 12 year old child is just that, a Child and no child of that age is emotionally ready to engage in a sexual relationship, no matter how much they think they are. That fact is something that any adult should be able to comprehend.

While I don't agree whatsoever with Techsnow's opinion on the age of consent or ideas of sex with young children, I don't think you're any better with your lynch-mob mentality against him.

True, his position and beliefs are certainly not my cup of tea, but for all you know he could be winding people up. Personally I don't think so, but I'll give him the benefit of doubt.

But what you're doing is the sort of thing that can destroy peoples' lives when they've actually done nothing wrong but voice an opinion.

Of course people who are proven without a doubt to have done these awful things should face the full penalty the law can administer.

However, my real concern is for people who get 'false accusations' of child molestation against them and being labelled a paedo before any concrete evidence is found.

Being wrongly accused of murder or assault is one thing and can be fairly easy to rectify. Being accused of paedophilia -- well, there's no real coming back from that. People will not listen to the facts and, like you, cloud their judgement with emotion rather than intellect.
