Paedophiles: What are they?

For all of you out there who have been living under a rock, pedophiles are adults who sexually abuse children. Well, at least in laymen’s terms.

In case you’re wondering, my ‘what’ in the title was not a grammatical error, since I consider pedophiles as the lowest of the low.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not disparaging anyone with the rock comment as it gives me more of a chance to sway you towards my way of thinking.

I have to clarify something, since it was mentioned in one of the comments. The correct spelling is Pedophiles and not pedophiles. Do checkout out the link, but be prepared. It’s black humor about a subject that should not be joked about!

The traumatic child

“The childhood shows the man, as morning shows the day.” Those were the words written by a famous English poet named John Milton. For those of you who don’t get poetry, it only means that early experiences will shape our personalities for the rest of our lives, and that any psychological issues we may experience in adulthood are a result of difficult or traumatic childhood experiences. There's also the newly emerged theory about how pedophiles are born and not made.

       

What do I say? I say “Hogwash!” People have been abusing this notion for a while now and quite frankly I’m not the only one that’s getting sick of it. While I’m not disputing that there are some merits to the theory, it does not give those sickos a get out of jail free card. After all, they do have the choice in whether to commit those crimes or not.

Anyone for the death penalty?

Me personally, I would go for stoning. To my delight, I found out that there are people out there that share my opinion. So I'm not the only blood thirsty one here. But since we live in a so-called “civilised society”, the death penalty will have to do.

It’s not just me; there has been a huge outcry for passing legislation advocating the death penalty for repeat offenders. The fact that they have reoffended after whatever punishment they were dealt shows that the punishment was not even close to dampening their sick desires.

These vile creatures were treated too humanly as a result of us living in a wannabe politically correct world. They learnt how to manipulate the system and our society. This manipulation gave them the chance to destroy another child’s life.

If prison doesn’t deter them then I say death will. Disregarding the fact that I have referred to them as “creatures”, they are fully grown adults that can tell right from wrong. They are aware of the consequences of their actions, as well as the level of degradation they have sunk into, no matter how much they try to justify those levels.
