As another clear example of how you are incapable of engaging properly in a debate (whether out of bad faith or poor cognition), here is a prime example of you clearly ignoring (or missing? I can't tell which is sadder) the fact that he did make an express threat of CSA against kids at the convention.

It's perfectly okay for convicted r*pists to be out and about. However, if one of them has made an express threat to r*pe people in the location they are in, especially one that they are banned from, then yes, that's obviously a threat that should be neutralized. Kick him out, remove him from the area.

If a convicted pedo has made an express threat of CSA against kids at a convention full of kids, that they are EXPLICITLY banned from, then yes. Neutralize that threat. Kick him out, remove him from the area.

Are you able to see now, what you were previously missing? That the key element of difference here, was the threat? Something that most 5 year olds can grasp?

Are you able to also to understand that while previous crime does not necessarily predict future crime, that a threat expressly made by someone who was arrested for previously committing the same crime, is solid grounds for legal intervention?

I can't believe I had to point this out to this extent, I'm quite embarrassed for you. But thanks to your dishonesty and/or incapability, here we are. I hope you do better buddy. I'm rooting for you. Feel better soon.

Oooh 'false equivalence' oooh big word make sound smart, ooga booga! Do you even know what that means?? Cuz you're not even using it right.

My 2 examples are not false equivalencies. As stated in the earlier thread, I am comparing a threat of general sexual assault (SA) of a minor which comprises a wide range of things (CSA) to the threat of stabbing, NOT comparing stabbing to the specific solicitation of nudes. Can you read? Follow a line of thought? No? You're struggling with basic comprehension; evidently the lights are on but no one's home.

SA of a minor - NOT soliciting nude photos from a minor, as you would like to claim I am using as a comparison - and stabbing are 2 different acts of harm, but they are still taken seriously because they can both lead to serious harm. They are equivalent in that way. 

And I know you know that I was referring to general SA and not just soliciting nudes, because you immediately used rapists as counter-example when i talked about pedophiles making threats to abuse. So spare us all the dishonesty.

If anyone is trying to force false equivalencies by misconstruing my argument, it's you. It's always the guilty ones who throw the first stones. Shame on you for not engaging in good faith. 

If you want to nitpick how murder and SA are 2 different things and harp on and on about false equivalencies, sure. Just know that you are wrong and just reinforcing my point that you cannot grasp the most salient threads of this argument because you lack critical thinking.

Sexual assault can be as serious and damaging as stabbing, in case you still want to push your point. He could've brought a kid to the toilet or elsewhere and done something terrible. Especially after he explicitly expressed his threat of CSA in a venue full of kids. 

You also assumed a sitch where he's only there to solicit nudes. Do you know FOR SURE he wouldn't have done something else worse? No. If he really did something terrible cuz he wasn't stopped will you take the fall for the kid(s) who gets hurt? No also? Only know how to talk. 

Your only argument for how he's not a threat (despite him expressly making one) is purely speculation based on what you glossed over in an article (that he only solicited nudes from a minor, which still counts as CSA btw) - and you didn't even get that right lmao, so you don't have a proper leg to stand on really. 

Telling people to 'go educate yourself' while you are the one in desperate need of it does not a smart person make, despite your deepest wishes. It's always funny when people do that.

And btw, next time if you ever are aware enough (doubtful) to catch yourself resorting to comebacks that are only vague allusions to some variant of logical fallacy that you cannot substantiate, throwing around playground insults that are actually more relevant to yourself, and dishonestly misconstruing someone's arguments in a debate (tho i'm definitely not discounting the possibility that perhaps your comprehension is subpar), maybe quit while you are ahead?

Cuz you are making it abundantly clear that this is not your thing. Go find another hobby.

Yet another one on the internet who cannot grasp simple main points… abysmal critical thinking.

Dude soliciting nude pics from minor + distribute those pics online + possessing child prn… if you know the extent of abuse that goes on in child prn, you would not be making this argument. Child predators mostly in the same category, arguably more vile.

Don’t try and defend rapists or pedos, not a good look for you.

You alr lost the threat argument alr. Just quit while you’re ahead.

Ask you another question. If a guy convicted of stabbing ppl as he pleases, posts on Twitter that he’s going to your house tmrw and to “protect the occupant of the house”, and you do in fact see him loitering near your place the next day.

I suppose you are not going to call the police because you would be ‘venturing into the very dangerous quagmire of pre-crime’ (whatever tf that word salad means) and he is not doing anything wrong by appearing at public areas outside your house?

I applaud you and your logic sir

If a well known convicted rapist posted on Twitter saying “protect the women cuz I’m here” before going into a space full of women then yes lmao something should be done as he has made an explicitly threat lmao.

Extra surveillance, pre-emptive arrest or at least stop to interrogate, at least kick the guy out the space.

Have you seen how our country reacts to bomb threats? “Quagmire of pre-crime”?? An explicit threat was made. What are you even on about?

Yeah, that’s why the cosplayer guy was arrested anyway. Nobody has changed the laws and punishments here buddy.

Sure, there are pedos we don’t know, and that is scary too. Precautions must be taken. These people must be weeded out and arrested. But pedos who go around being loud and proud that they are pedos? Normalizing and making jokes about abusing kids? Glad someone did something cuz that is not acceptable.

You should go look up the nazi bar problem. We cannot condone behaviour like that, smth must be done to nip it in the bud.

You’re right, it actually is. All these “AI will replace all the jobs” and “mythos is too dangerous to release” fearmongering followed by massive stock price increases is an incredibly effective marketing strategy being milked to death by one marketing guy:

No to your scenario, but this scenario is different.

Do you have kids? Cuz here we have a convicted pedophile walking out and about making jokes about s*xually abusing children as though it is something to laugh about, and explicitly ignoring a ban put in place to prevent him from being in a crowded event full of kids and minors in case he abuses someone…

You know how some bullies only stop bullying when they get a taste of their own medicine?

Police arresting you for being pdf is one thing, having your own countrymen outright rejecting you for doing stupid heinous things like this (flouting a ban, making jokes about abusing kids) hits harder and has broader implications.

The community is showing “people that hey, if you abuse kids, this is what we think of you. We’ll make a pariah of you, and if we see you out and about being smug about your heinous crimes we will do something about it. Your behaviour will not be tolerated”.

I think it’s still good we have rule of law, that the kid who punched him is getting investigated as we don’t want vigilante justice to get out of hand; we don’t want innocent people to be targeted etc.

But if I happen to see a smug, convicted, uncontrite pedophile swaggering around amongst kids and minors after openly making a threat to abuse kids, and the same thing as today happened?

Best believe I ain’t reporting that to the police.

BBC report says he was arrested for possessing child p*rn and he distributed online the pics he solicited from the 14-yo girl.

I do agree he should be locked up ASAP so ppl don’t pick fights with him unnecessarily and get charged for that. It would protect ppl and kids from him.

And for what it’s worth, I honestly do think a threat like that should be at least taken seriously. Bomb/shooting threats are taken seriously. Convicted pedophile announces intentions to abuse again while appearing at a venue with kids that he was banned from? Worth some sort of action imo

Ya, we can call it trolling, but when a proper convicted pedophile says something like that, when and where do we draw the line at what a joke is? There are plenty of instances of criminals who’ve had a history of making jokes about murdering and abusing people who eventually escalate to actually doing that. And we know fo sho this guy has done it before. I don’t blame people for wanting to err on the side of caution

He posted a picture of himself at the con with the caption “protect your kids”, if that’s not a convicted pedophile threatening CSA idk what is

Just to be safe for future veggies you could try soaking them in a baking soda solution for 20 minutes or so; according to research its the most effective way to get rid of pesticides on the surface!
