Yes. These people should all be beaten and hung in a public place to give them the justice that they deserve and to serve as a deterrent to others.

Video cameras should be banned! This would've never happened if video equipment was outlawed!

Well, that's the big question. In order to prevent this stuff you have to be able to predict who does it, and given the nature of the crimes these people are already used to hiding their predilictions. At some point the ability of the human mind to comprehend this breaks down and we are stuck with the simple truth that evil exists.

Did you even read this article? This was not one guy operating alone, nor were the victims only boys.

Yeah I read the article, that's why I used the word "tend" -just thought I'd make a generalization, just like the writer of the article did. Duh!

This might be more of a physical abuse mental disorder as opposed to a sexual disorder. So I don't think the sexual orientation would have anything to do with it.

The ring included a diverse array of men: an elementary school teacher in Alabama

Men should not be permitted to teach elementary school - there are simply too many pedophiles in the bunch.

A quick Google search turned up articles and legal documents from last year, when this guy AND HIS WIFE were indicted. It seems Mrs. Patterson (now ex) was actively involved in helping her dear husband carry out these charming activities.
