Christ, just listen to yourself, you sad bastard. I swear there was a time when you used to have a talent for this sort of shit.

Wet your finger.
Hold it up high in the air.
Maybe that will help you figure out which way the wind is blowing, because you plainly haven't got a clue.
Now fuck off, you whiny little twat.

I would ask you to stop bothering me, but these hamfisted attempts to put me in my place are just great :D

I don't think singling child abuse out as an exception to other crimes where there is just a flat sentence for having anything to do with it is a particularly correct way of dealing with it. It sets a precedent, more than anything, for taking no account of other considerations.
It also never seems to occur to people that perhaps what these people need is help, not punitive treatment, but then I'm probably a faggy lefty for thinking that rehabilitation is more important than punishment.
I'd agree. But any talk of anything that might effectively rehabilitate paedophiles is roundly condemned in the press. I think most people don't really care for the victims of abuse, they just care about how hearing about it makes them feel. Just like most people don't seem to like facing the truth about 'stranger danger'- children are most at risk from people they know, not shifty strangers in dirty macs on street corners. It's easier to think that the danger is outside.
