Prosecutor Arrested In Sex Sting Involving 5 yr old Girl

This just in! The coward took his life, instead of answering to his behavior.

I knew that would make the revenge freaks happy.


And here one of them is to gloat.


Rah rah rah indeed.

A most excellent development! Precisely what I'd have recommended to him, given an opportunity. Rah, rah, rah!

Revenge freak?

Revenge is a concept of great profundity; very interesting.

Quote:

I am very glad he removed the possibility of next time.

Yes.
I got pretty mad at the thieves who stole my car
from in front of my house. I tend to agree with u, Bill.

Shud this include burglars, robbers, murderers & car thieves ?

Quote:

You more enlightened folks can look down your noses at me all you wish,

I choose not to do that.

Quote:

but I'll continue to view the self-removal of pedophiles as the single most decent thing
they can do for the team. His last act was in all likelihood the most noble thing he's ever done.

Yeah; u think Gonzales missed one ?

For purposes of your post,
how r u defining " pedophiles " ?
What he did was most clearly an attempt at pedophilia; no doubt,
but on the less obvious side of the spectrum,
how far shud the definition of pedophilia extend ?

Revenge freak? Talk about a twisted spin. From what I read; there was no victim to avenge (thank Good). I have no way of knowing if he acted on his sick desires in the past, nor even if he would have this time. But I am very glad he removed the possibility of next time.

This is the oddest and, to use your word,
twisted opinion you have ever offered.
You would prefer suicide as a method of justice.

Quote:

I think I answered you question in you quoting me.

If I have been redundant: I apologize for that.
My memory is not as sharp as it used to be.

Quote:

Since he said in the initial contacts that he had experience in this matter,
there may be victims.

Yes.
In the 1970s, I attended a psychological seminar given by Nathaniel Brandon
to relieve an obsession I had with a particular young lady
who had made overtures of friendship to me, in school, years before.
Anyway, at that seminar, I met numerous young ladies who complained
of sexual abuse in their childhoods, that continued to plague them
into their adulthoods.

Quote:

Those kids that he have, or have not, victimized
are to be helped in psychological,

Yes, if thay have symptoms.
However, I can 't help but remember my own case
wherein a 17 year old girl seduced me when I was 11
and a 23 year old girl did the same thing, later that year.
I valued those experiences at the time,
and I remember them fondly.
I wud not have desired psychological treatment
for what I deemed to be my good fortune.

Quote:

or in the worst case, also medical matters.

Yes; V.D. or worse: AIDS.

Quote:

They have been robbed of their future.

Well, maybe in some cases,
but let 's not be too quick to include all children who have had sexual experiences;
( see my case set forth above ). I had a successful and happy life; I was not robbed of my future.

Quote:

Let's help them have a somewhat normal adolescence, shall we?

Do u mean from a psychiatrist ?


Let us hope that every person of any age
who complains of emotional problems or of somatic difficulties
will receive competent and successful medical assistance.

I believe that is a very fine definition
which is of value to our discussion.

Earlier, I had hoped to garner opinions of whether
more subtle behaviors than overt rape
( e.g., conversations with children, shaking hands with them, a pat on the back, etc. )
are manifestations of pedophilia.

Quote:

BTW, I asked it once earlier;
what should the police do to expose these freaks, and how can we help?

Offhand, I don 't have any good ideas.
I do not believe in entrapment; i.e.,
I oppose the police actively enticing and encouraging the citizens to violate the law
and then pouncing on them when thay have taken the bait.
( Can u imagine the IRS doing that ? )
Probably the best thing to do is have good defensive education in the schools,
discussing the matter with children.

Quote:

Sorry 'bout your car, man. Hope you had insurance.

Thank u, Dice.
I got it back from the police.
I also have 2 cars.

Quote:

Parents are the only insurance kids have, when used right.

Parental advice ( and warning ) is very, very important.
When I lost my mother 30 some odd years ago,
the loss of her advice was among the most emotionally painful considerations.

However, when I was 8, I went to Phoenix, Arizona.
I was home alone a lot, and despite living in a peaceful neighborhood,
where I never knew of any crime, I felt ill-at-ease in defending my home,
if I ever needed to; ( I never did ).
Anyway, after a few weeks there, I won a small framed .38 revolver
in a poker game with some other kids of the area.
That began my gun collection; I thereafter lived in a sense of tranquility

It's sad how ugly normally sane folk get when discussing pedophilia. Very sad.
They take leave of their humanity in the very name of humanity.

What twisted irony.

Quote:

Huh?

I have explained it in great detail in a number of places.


Including, I would have thought, in a very succinct form on this thread.

Sorry to have missed it; u have my apologies.




In a nutshell, I do not believe that inflicting more torment and death
is a way of solving the problem of what to do with those who act illegally
and immorally towards other people.

Quote:

I also believe that those who lovingly and self righteously revel in
fantasies of torment and murder of those have behaved wrongly,
and encourage others to engage in such fantasies, or engage in such
fantasies as a group, as we see on various threads around here,
are doing something very negative on a personal and societal level,
and their behaviour revolts me, as it does many other people.

Well, some folks may mirror your sense of distaste.
We all have equal rights of free speech,
not just people who agree with our points of vu.

Quote:

I don't think they are bad people,
I know they are not, but I find the lack of insight and rationality and compassion
in the revengeful thinking they display on this subject very ironic and actually saddening.


I agree that the concept of revenge is a very complex one,
and I have been thinking of starting a thread to discuss it,

I hope that u will do it; sounds attractive.
I am sure that it will be welcomed.

Quote:

but I am wanting to gather some very good quotations
to spur thinking, since it is such a contentious subject.

I suggest Google.

Quote:

I agree that desire for revenge is a a pretty common human impulse,

I suspect that revenge was practiced
long b4 humans had evolved, and since then.

Quote:

just as we have many impulses that are damaging to any attempt
to live in some form of sophisticated working aggregation of humans.
Hence laws and justice syatems and such.

That addresses which impulses we shud execute
and which we shud suppress.
It can be HARD to decide,
by SEVERAL criteria.

Quote:

Such impulses are normal and nothing to be disturbed about...
however, focusing on such impulses, and even lauding them
and claiming some sort of righteousness and morality in doing so,
and joining in and encouraging group fantasies about them strikes me
as being a sad and harmful thing to be doing.

Well, u know that we all have our own individual points of vu,
not all of which r in harmony with yours.

With all respect,
I doubt the wisdom of folks fretting about the potential heckler 's veto.
As a libertarian individualist hedonist, I suggest that it is
better that all concepts compete for popularity and viability, on their own merits,
in the marketplace of ideas ( altho candor moves me to admit, that in my childhood,
I toyed with the idea of travel thru time with a Thompson S.M.G. and killing Karl Marx
before he caused any trouble ).

P.S.:
However, that was defensive, rather than vengeful.
