I tend to disagree, I don’t see pedophilia being legalized.
Reason is that pedophila has a more quantifiable impact than gay marriage does. Legalize gay marriage and you have two consenting adults with big smiles on their faces. Any negative impact ends up being societal and somewhat intangible in nature.
With pedophilia you have a sexually molested kid. That’s much more tangible in producing a defined, identifiable victim. Pedophilia being legalized is going to be extremely dangerous for ... pedophiles. You’ll have fathers or other family members of victims, even the victims themselves, taking matters into their own hands. And there will be very few juries willing to convict anyone who kills a known or suspected pedophile (ie jury nullification)
So sad tho it may seem, the current illegality of pedophilia actually benefits pedophiles: if they get caught theres an inherent trust by the victim/victim’s family that the system will work; they end up in jail where they get fed, showers, health care, etc.
In a world where it’s legalized there’s a MUCH better chance of pedophiles ending up dead, probably after some level of torture. With the person doing such claiming temporary insanity or somesuch and walking away scot free.
Gay “marriage” is not about two people at all. It’s about those two people getting absolute control - parental control - over somebody else’s children.
