Of course some people still go onto the path of no return and end up doing something sinister to somebody.
I would argue though that they already have (extra) challenges with their minds that push them over the edge to act on ill-adviced decisions.
.
I am not suggesting anyone here to take advantage of kids. Or to do anything else harmful to anyone. I am merely trying to bring other points of views in here and say that thoughts alone should not incriminate anyone. Is that really punishable? I have already said in another comment that I don't defend people who act to hurt others.
Again - I define acts punishable only if they harm people. What's it to you whatever everybody is thinking or dreaming about when there is no evidence of nobody getting harmed from it?
.
Hmm. You sound like you are referring to me with your accusations, accusing me of being a pedophile. Do my opinions and thoughts on the subject alone make you think that way?
I understand how you may feel about this. This is a difficult topic and many people are sensitive about it. The common, public opinion easily is to want to lock up everyone who even thinks towards a way many deem wrong, or even straight kill them. To strike down even the ones who never harmed anyone.
But I have the right to speak my mind, and I want to do that in a civilized, polite way without judging anybody (I only judge the actions, and the actions can be punishable). Not even you.
You also have your right of speaking up your mind, as you did.
But - at the end of the day, you can believe in whatever you make out of this conversation. I don't think I can affect your decisions once you're chosen in what to believe. And I won't try neither.
I wish you a good day 🙂Look after your loved ones, mate!
