NYT On The Internet And Child Molestation

prostoalex writes "In a long and disturbing story on child molesters, the New York Times Magazine among other issues researches the impact of the Internet on the child molesters. While officially the number of child molestations did not change significantly, Dr. Fred Berlin, associate professor of psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, considers the Internet to be a new vehicle for child molestation: 'There are three areas of concern. First, the illusion of anonymity -- an illusion because Internet use can be easily tracked -- leads to disinhibition. Second, there's a blurring of fantasy and reality. There's someone at the other end of the Internet conversation, but it's not quite a real person; there's a feeling of playing a game that can lead to actually doing what one otherwise wouldn't. Third, the easy accessibility can facilitate moving over boundaries.'"

I can say this quite honestly. Your post disgusts me.

You disgust me.

People like you when exposed should be killed. I would pull the trigger myself. THAT is the solution to your problem not support groups where you all get to tell each other that wanting to fuck little kids is ok.
The fact that hanging scum like you in the town square for the crows and maggots is a travesty.

I hope you kill yourself.

Dropping out from the 8th grade? Well, Mr. Redneck F. Moron, it's you who should be killed, not because you are retard, scum and a disgrace to human race, but because there are only so many oxygen atoms in the world and wasting them on shit like you is unacceptable. And also because if you ever have children, the horror of it would make Darwin turn in his grave.
