My whole life before trump became president the most common opinion on pedophiles was more or less "I could never kill someone, but I could kill a pedophile" and/or "All pedophiles should die". At the time I was saying if they aren't actually committing a crime and staying away from children, leave them be because they are probably suffering and sucking it up to have a place in society, or if for no other reason because punishing uncomitted crimes is a slippery slope. Literally nobody agreed with me.
Now nobody wants to even go anywhere near the topic and either does the oh well biden this and clinton that or just sputters non words while actual pedophile rapists not only roam free but have unchecked power, or worse defends the actual criminals. I'm all for killing these ones but I even get a bunch of "voilence is not the answer" from people who have previously said they would kill a pedophile even if they actively stay away from any and all situations involving minors.
We never should have let them kill Harambe.
