After reading this thread I've been trying very hard to understand the mentality of a paedophile, what drives them towards this sort of, i guess obsession?
Is it something they missed out on in their childhood and wish to go back and relive life as a child, but are trapped in an adult body who has lost the innocence so approaches it in a different way?
or just getting a thrill of doing something illegal?
I can't seem to pinpoint itedit on 6-10-2010 by TheNewKid because: (no reason given)
I think there is something in the constitution about "cruel and unusual punishment".
except that might violate our small constitutional right of no " excessive or unusual punishment"
Your sick for considering branding people. That's not better than what these pedophiles do.
Making the pedophile a slave of the state and then charging the victim for his keep is doubly-victimizing the victim. Creating circumstances where the labour of the slave benefited his rape victim is a better way.

In theory? Great idea.
In reality? Not so much. Here's why (feel free to prove me wrong though...not a big fan of pedos...).
More of the victims would be murdered by the animals. Or so it would seem to me, especially by the unbranded ones...because they'd be facing that stigma, once they served their time.
Pedos function best, obviously, when they're camouflaged by society. That brand would take away that camouflage...so to avoid that, they remove the victim from the equation.
The laws should be changed to a death sentence upon conviction, and the usual appeals process.
That's my thought anyway.
Pedophiles are adults who molest children. Who could be for that?? Seriously....
Since 1994 there have been six publications that link fluoride exposure to direct adverse effects on the brain. Two epidemiology studies from China indicate depression of I.Q. in children (11,12). Another paper (3) shows a link between prenatal exposure of animals to fluoride and subsequent birth of off-spring which are hyperactive throughout life. A 1998 paper shows brain and kidney damage in animals given the "optimal" dosage of fluoride, viz. one part per million (13). And another (14) shows decreased levels of a key substance in the brain that may explain the results in the other paper from that journal. Another publication (5) links fluoride dosing to adverse effects on the brain's pineal gland and pre-mature onset of sexual maturity in animals. Earlier onset of menstruation of girls in fluoridated Newburg, New York has also been reported (6).
