There was widespread anger and frustration among Belgians due to police errors and the general slowness of the investigation. This anger culminated when the popular investigative judge in charge of the case was dismissed after having participated in a fund-raising dinner by the girls' parents. His dismissal resulted in a massive protest march (the "White March") of 300,000 people on the capital, Brussels, in October 1996, two months after Dutroux's arrest, in which demands were made for reforms of Belgium's police and justice system.
On the witness stand, Jean-Marc Connerotte, the original judge of the case, broke down in tears when he described "the bullet-proof vehicles and armed guards needed to protect him against the shadowy figures determined to stop the full truth coming out. Never before in Belgium has an investigating judge at the service of the king been subjected to such pressure. We were told by police that [murder] contracts had been taken out against the magistrates." Connerotte testified that the investigation was seriously hampered by protection of suspects by people in the government. "Rarely has so much energy been spent opposing an inquiry," he said. He believed that the Mafia had taken control of the case
Two books - Dunblane: Our Year of Tears by Peter Samson and Alan Crow (Mainstream, 1996) and Dunblane: Never Forget by Mick North (Mainstream, 2000) - both give accounts of the massacre from the perspective of those most directly affected. Another book, Dunblane Unburied by Sandra Uttley (Book Publishing World 2006), whose publication was funded by a shooters' organisation, the Sportsman's Association,[14] examines Hamilton's relationship with members of Central Scotland Police and presents a disturbing alternative account to the events leading up to the massacre. Uttley alleges a major high-level cover-up and calls for a new Public Inquiry to establish the truth. On 1 March 2006 Creation Books released Predicate: The Dunblane Massacre Ten Years After by Peter Sotos.[15]
Thank god.duckroll said:You guys are all terrible. The entire "omg xxxx-age are all pedos" thing is really old. Stop derailing threads with this bullshit or I'll start doing something about it.
Either way, given the current "KILL EVERY PEDO, BURN THEM ALIVE" climate in the West I'd highly doubt anyone would consciously choose to be attracted to prepubescents. Why would anyone willingly place themselves in probably the most hated minority there is?X26 said:I think he's defending pedos who were born with that mentality, but don't act on it in any way
although most would argue no one is ever born a pedo
Pedophilia is defined as:
Over a period of at least six months, recurrent intense sexual urges and sexually arousing fantasies involving sexual activity with a prepubescent child or children (generally age 13 or younger).
-----
Pedophilia is - Most adults who sexually molest children are considered to have pedophilia, a mental disorder described by the American Psychiatric Association's, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition (DSM-IV). An adult who engages in sexual activity with a child is performing a criminal and immoral act which never can be considered normal or socially acceptable behavior.
Pedophilia is categorized in the DSM-IV as one of the several paraphilia mental disorders. The essential features of paraphilia ("sexual deviation") are recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors that generally involve nonhuman subjects, the suffering or humiliation of oneself or one's partner, or children or other non-consenting persons.
Oh, I wasn't even talking about rape or statutory rape. I was mainly just alluding to the fact that, although the social climate might suggest that few will choose to romanticize virginity in this day and age, there's probably not an insignificant portion of the population that retains their virginity not by choice, but by lack of opportunity.Suairyu said:By choice. Even discounting rape and statutory rape, waiting until 18 has to be uncommon? I was a late bloomer as a teen because it wasn't until 17 I lost mine (that being in a country where the legal age is 16).

Most of it seems like teasing. "17-year-old actress is cute." *posts Chris Hansen macro*AVclub said:People need to stop throwing the word "pedophile" around because it distorts the actual definition. Seeing a photos of a teenage girl and finding it attractive is not pedophilia. Waiting for a 17 year old girl to turn 18 isn't either.

Absolutely, but look at her. She has every opportunity. It was that G-Fex felt the need to express that she wouldn't be a virgin for long like anyone would expect anything else.

I didn't imply any such thing. However, I will point out that thought crimes are still not punishable by law in this country. Humans still have the right to think whatever they want regardless of how morally reprehensible you may think it is. So until a pedophile acts on his urges in some illegal way, and is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, they shouldn't be persecuted.DeathNote said:Don't imply with your second bolding that only people who molest children are pedophiles.

Losing your virginity before the state-mandated age of consent makes you a slut? That's even more confusing than your original post.G-Fex said:I didn't want to outright call her a slut.
I guess I will now though.

Yeah. Between all the mind crushing, you're really an upstanding fellow.G-Fex said:But the craziest thing is that usually I don't personally attack celebs, I usually just say how much I hate him or her. I'm usually very nice about it. Everyone on gaf will tell you I'm usually very kind.
Isn't that right?
Religious beliefs are entirely a choice though. It's more akin to hating people with Down's Syndrome.DeathNote said:Who said they legal action should be taken against thought?
But I'm sorry if you're sensitive/offended about by people insulting/scolding those with the thoughts.
If an atheist or christian can insult each other all day on forums for thoughts/beliefs, we can tell pedophiles of all degrees they are sick fucks. We are glad they haven't acted on it, but never the less.
I don't mean people on neogaf should go around assuming and accusing each other or sub communities. Which has already been nipped in the bud by a mod in this thread.

What are you proposing? Would society as a whole benefit from welcoming members who have a predilection towards a heinous, criminal act into the fold openly with open arms so long as they are part of the "good" group who successfully restrains themselves? Mind you, I kind of understand the point: they most certainly didn't choose to be like that, and as such they drew a crappy hand. However, I don't know if I can get behind any soft of progressive movement that encourages that it's okay to be attracted to kids so long as you don't act on it. Maybe hating such individuals is harsh, but tolerance of the preference is hard to get behind.tiff said:Either way, given the current "KILL EVERY PEDO, BURN THEM ALIVE" climate in the West I'd highly doubt anyone would consciously choose to be attracted to prepubescents.

Wait, what? So if I were to see an attractive 17 year old and say "yeah, she's hot", that would make me a paedophile? That doesn't sound right.Zane said:Ephebophilia is just another word for pedophilia, sorry.

Darklord said:No it's not or there would be a much, much higher number of pedo's out there than you would believe. Ephebophilia is normally between 14-19. Who hasn't seen a hot 15 or 16 year old before? Hell, 16 is legal here.
The main thing that bothers me is watching people get spit on for stuff they have no control over. Their attraction is harmful to themselves and those who they're attracted to, but I really have to think that burning the people afflicted with this unfortunate attraction at the stake isn't very... humane?Steve Youngblood said:What are you proposing?

J-Rod said:Perhaps psychopaths who would kill you just to pacify a moment of boredom should paint it as a sexual orientation so they too could have the sympathy of the internet.

It's not right that people who don't like the idea of harming others say bad things about those who do want to, especially when it's about getting a nut off.
And I call BS on pedo being tossed around lightly. Every instance of the word there is five more that makes sure to correct it as ephopilia. I'd say it is the opposite, and too many people make it sound like it is perfectly okay to want a girl when she hits first mensus (average age 13). Either I am way too old to be here or I'm a bigger prude than I know, because most 17 and under look and act like kids to me.

Pedophiles have the widespread sympathy on the internet? Whaaaaaa? The only reason I defend them in the first place is because I've not seen a more hated group since some people I used to hang around with started acting absurdly racist. Oh, and the fact that it is really popular to call the MLP fandom pedos on these boards.
