Considering the damage that is done to society They really should be locked up indefinately. Sure give them all the treatment you want 'whilst' they are locked away and maybe someone will find a cure or a therapy that is 100% successfull.
As for reabilitation and takeing risks with children, we all know what the answer is there. We have had plenty of experience over hundreds of years showing that they reoffend.
What about the millions of children who grow up into adults who would never dream of hurting a child ?
No more lame arse excuses for putting any child at the risk of this kind of horror...PLEASE.
Its about time we started really addressing the true consequences that peadophiles create in our society. No more not dealing with it appropriately because they are sombody's father, mother or brother,sister etc. Children's safety is far more important than the feelings of the peadophile. They are the OFFENDER. Wouldnt it be great if we found a cure, a solution...yes but until that time keep them away from the children.
Personally i would show them about as much compassion as they show the children they violate, and as for free love,
What could be more innocent and full of love than our beautifull children? These people pray on the innocence, loveing and trusting nature of children !
There are extreme cases i agree but most of these people know exactly what it is they do to these children.
So help them but only if they are locked away.
It is high time to stop takeing horrific risks with childrens welfare.
More compassion for the victims please, more help for the victims and rehabilitation for the victims.
The childrens protection comes first before the liberties of the offender, It allways astounds me that more phocus is on the offender rather than the victims.
If your reasoning compassion leads you to help the peadophile because they have been abused themselves then surely by keeping them away from society's children would have a dramatic affect on reduceing the amount of offenders out there surely? Please wake up and Stop takeing risks with our children.
PS For those who organise the abduction of children and abuse them for videos or traffic them in an organisation , I think they should be put to death...Or suffer extreme hard labour for LIFE...meaning...until they die. These people are not stupid, they know what right and wrong is, they seem to be able to organise themselves pretty well dont they.
