    I would ask you to take a step back and ask yourself if you are being completely rational about this issue.

    I mean I kinda would like you to do the same, because you keep misunderstanding me, and it looks more and more like you’re doing it on purpose. Wth are you going on about “preemptive capital punishment” ?I said we need to empathize with them, never talked about punishment, never said we should not treat them as human.

    I said we should not treat them as “another minority” because it’s a mental disorder, unlike homosexuality… When I said they should try not being pedophiles anymore, what I meant was they should seek help for fighting their urges because it should never be accepted, as you should not accept psychopaths until they are under treatment. They are both disorders and should be treated as such. Saying they face similar issues is not helping, because those issues are for completely different reasons. Some are legitimate, other aren’t.

      I am sorry if this is the impression I am giving you, I promise that is not what is happening here.

      I am very sorry that was completely wrong. I meant collective punishment. I’ll edit the comment above accordingly. Obviously you never called for captial punishment.

      I would actually disagree with that too. You need to take some care when you interact with them but “not accepting” or “social rejection” is far over the line in my opinion. The people having to deal with this are the ones that can decide how they deal with it unless they have become dangerous to others. And no, just because some have become dangerous does not mean all of them are dangerous.

      Saying they face similar issues is not helping, because those issues are for completely different reasons. Some are legitimate, other aren’t.

      I disagree with this too. For examples I don’t think discriminating against people that are pedophiles in the jobmarket is better than discriminating against any other minority.

        That’s where we shall agree to disagree. We should not discriminate against those who seek help, yes, but if they are not willing to, they should not be near children.
