Hey, it's the 21st century and now the left is pushing for an "anything goes society". I'm guessing most SJW's are also weirdos who want to be see as "normal".

Exactly. Any pedo that can't control themselves is a danger; they can bullshit all they want about loss of control: they're plain weak.

Yup, but you will be lambasted for even having this position, at least in Murica. I think in some cases it is an illness, and in others people are born that way. It sucks that we can't really have a conversation about this in most places, due to the stigma.

So they're arguing that he's a good person for not molesting a child, when the only thing that kept him from molesting a child was the fact that the "girl" was actually a police officer? This guy knew what he was doing, and needs to be kept from acting on his impulses. Maybe the author would feel differently if it was their child taking to a pedo.

I would suspect that it's probable that one of Salon's editors may be a pedophile.

Or you know, the editor likeslikes free speech and to let controversial voices have their say

I tell friends, colleagues, and strangers I meet (as I believe birthday parties present an excellent opportunity to enlighten people on the matter), when they fail to understand why I am sympathetic towards pedophiles, “How would you feel if you couldn’t ever have sex with anyone? What if you also couldn’t look at the porn you liked because it was illegal, and couldn’t confide in anyone for support?” By this point, most people begin nodding their heads in agreement.
Apparently birthday parties are also pedo hangouts. You only give a kid rewards until he stops wetting the bed; once you understand that these things are wrong, you get punished for doing them. Since people get "don't rape" and "don't watch child porn" drilled into them before pedophilia's even diagnosable, they don't deserve little calendars with stickers on them that get them new toys every months they don't rape a child! How damn hard is this for people to understand?

Exactly. Like addicts who want everyone to hold their hand and cheer them on. Fuck them. I was an addict of various substances for 15+ years and quit. You don't deserve an award for doing what you were supposed to be doing all along. You quietly pick up the pieces, try and start over, and be glad you're not getting punished more than you punished yourself. /rant

Of course they are. Idiots don't admit they are wrong when faced with truth or facts; they double-down on their shitty ideas instead. Just look at most politicians.

Still amazed Salon didn't accuse the cop of being racists or something. I mean who does the cop think he is to try to stop a pedophile from connecting with little girls?! /s

He was just a trigger happy pig on a power trip! Profiling left and right. Entrapment! Tyrants!

Freedom is dead! I mean you can't even contact 10 yo girls in chat rooms and meet them in person! /s

That really boggles muh noggin. "He hadn't touched a child! He was just caught ATTEMPTING to."
WTF salon.
