Maybe being a member of the APA should be added to the DSM...or they could just merge with NAMBLA.
I saw a show back in the early 90s where a pedophile was saying that they were standing back waiting for the homos to finish with their agenda of achieving public acceptance. He said that once the homos were accepted by the public, it wouldn’t take much to convince the public that pedophiles were just a bunch of harmless good old boys also. I laughed at the time. Man was I dumb back in those days.
“destigmatizing pedophilia ... removing the stigma, and [getting] the public to stop demonizing pedophiles.”
I don’t demonize them. I just want them dead.
...and keep in mind, once the succeed in ‘normalizing’ this behavior, then shrinks risk losing their license if they try to treat these people.
...we saw it coming, but no one listened.
Dear Tolerance Sucks Rocks;
Yes, it does . . and the really difficult part comes next, during the elimination process.
Pedophilia isn’t a mental illness. It’s an EVIL. - Sometimes I have to pretty much admire people who just take the non-existing law in their own hands. The Communist/Marxist/Fascist/Liberals have just about ruined this country.
No matter how they classify it mentally, pedophilia will always be a mala in se crime.
You don’t have to convince a jury that pedophilia is acceptable, you have to convince them that hanging BEFORE a pronouncement of guilt is bad form.
That's okay. Smith and Wesson will address the problem far more effectively than the disturbed members of the APA ever could.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
They did the same thing for homosexuals, and look what happened after that. Little kids in government schools are being encouraged to try it. That means the left is no longer happy just talking about it with the kids. They want the children for more than just talk.
And you’re also forgetting the Mozlem element...that loves little girls and who’s currently taking a lot of flack for it.
I suspect the order to remove pedofelia from the mental disorder list came from a desk in the White House, like Valerie Jarrett’s....
In other words, all they're asking for is "tolerance."
Next comes a hate speech bill. If your kid gets raped, you'll be demonized as a pedophileaphobe for getting upset about it.
That’s how homosexuality began it’s journey into our homes, schools, society and government. Next thing you, Ann Landers will retract, also.
This is the final, long overdue stake-through-the-heart of the APA.
This is the exact same technique they used to mainstream homosexualism.
It took 40 years or so but look at their success.
Get ready for similar campaign that ends up with pedophiles becoming another protected class.
Complete BS. Matt Barber is a loon, and there’s a reason he doesn’t identify the conference in question. It was NOT the APA. This story is written very carefully to be deceptive, and try to convince people that this was the APA. A more accurate account shows that it was a group completely unaffiliated with the APA:

Such a move, after it is brought over the line into rationalized rule of law, and the Christian citizen is obliged to oppose it, it becomes an unmistakable moment when opposition is obedience to God.
It can't be dismissed with a shrug, in my opinion. Such policy must be opposed, and by any and all means.
Yes, we've reached this kind of intolerable situation in other related areas touching upon life and being but there has usually been some ambiguity, usually a conflict between the rights of one group with less political clout over the "rights" of another class.
When the state allows the adoption of children by homosexuals then the compelling state interest served by restricting marriages to one man and one woman - at one time - goes out the window. For the only reason the State has any such compelling interest in becoming a Third Party to the unique marriage covenant, even defining legitimacy is the protection of the welfare of children.
Once that is tossed away, and within the general social norms tolerated (even embraced) by a majority of our fellow Americans, what might be defined as a compelling interest not to devolve such covenants to the People becomes arbitrary, perhaps destructive of the ends for which it is allowed to exist.
If the State has given up the protection of the welfare of children completely, the protection of innocence and the prevention of those premature sexual awakenings with a proven affect upon future citizens then what need have we for such a State?
It becomes our duty to alter or abolish it because it has become demonstrably destructive of those ends for which it is established. It has become tyranny.
Be warned, policy makers. This madness embraced by this group of "recognized scientists," should it become policy, would remove the legitimacy of the State.

A few articles were pinged out about this push to normalized the rape of children, but just in case anyone missed it, here's another article that got missed. The evil freakshow will continue - WILL - unless and until WE do something about it. It's up to US - the regular people - to put a stop to it. Ideas? Elected SOCIAL CONSERVATIVES. Ones with GUTS and principles. Speak up anywhere and everywhere. Get together with like minded people and protest - for instance, at schools who want "gay history" or fag clubs. Etc. I have more ideas.
I never in my life thought we would be in a situation like the Soviet Union. Yet here we are.
The next step will be to define all religious and conservative people as mentally ill. Which will happen soon.
