Simple solution. Don’t call the police.
Paedophilia is not a crime. Acting on the paedophilic impulse is a heinous crime.
Why oh why would anyone EVER call it that name? </sarc>
I’m sure that perversion is considered by them to be an outdated and dangerous notion unfit for use by the respectable Times pages.
Kleptomania is a disorder too, but theft is still a crime.
Nothing gets done without politics.
It doesnt help when the NAMBLA spokesman describes himself as a Libertarian in an interview with Spy magazine.
This 2008 Time article may explain more on that.
The fracas started with Mary J. Ruwart, the candidate with perhaps the deepest, purest libertarian roots
In April, a rival called her out for her thoughts in a 1999 book called Short Answers to the Tough Questions. Children who willingly participate in sexual acts have the right to make that decision as well, even if its distasteful to us personally, Ruwart wrote. When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will.
Calling evil good and good evil. Wow.
It will be legalized down to some absurd age like 8 or 5 so long as there is “consent.” Because of the nature of the aberration necessarily involving children too young to give “consent” in any other situation, that consent will be deemed by the law and the courts as necessarily substantial and good. The courts will do this to us and the Congress will just say, oh well what can we do? It is the law of the land. The population will protest and complain a lot but will accept it because they will not attempt ot overthrow the “decisions” and the paedophilia consent laws that are coming.
child molesters SHOULD be punished as harshly as legally allowed
I think exile to Antarctica should be legal
More proof that lawyers and law profs in particular are completely disconnected from reality.
This piece is obviously laying the groundwork for semi normalization of pedos, eventually followed by full normalization.
I gotta wonder how Margo Kaplan would write this piece after finding out her 6 yo son had been repeatedly fondled and buggered by her 30 yo male acquaintance in the department.
No, you idiots, it’s a CRIME. Of the worst, most despicable kind.
They want to make sex with who ever, whenever and however as routine as brushing your teeth.
You know, when you get right down to it, just about every perversion is a “lifestyle” choice.
So, let’s stop quibbling about antiquated notions like “morality” and just celebrate diversity.
Then why is it punished with prison time? If just a disorder, why prison? Diabetes is a disorder as is autism. They are not punished via prison.
Pedophilia, a paraphilia disorder along with things likes fetishism & sadism, has always been a mental illness.
That doesn’t mean it should be legal.
I dunno, if it was good enough for Mohammed, who am I to judge.
Said the long-recovering liberal.
According to the future report from the American Psychaitric Association it should be classified as a “ sexual orientation”
