But my point was that it isn't black and white, there are side effects. It caused a great man to commit succide. Let me repeat what you said.


If I recall corretly, he had also been stripped of his security clearance which meant he was no longer involved in an area of work he had put a huge amount of time and effort into - I imagine that was quite the hammer blow to him. The appalling way the British government treated homosexuals at that time can be blamed, I'm not sure one can identify individual elements to blame.

Although I'm not a psychologist - 21/04/2010 11:29:04 PM 451 Views
I think it's more complicated than just that - 21/04/2010 11:46:14 PM 437 Views
Sounds familiar... - 21/04/2010 11:52:43 PM 450 Views
even if someone did physically castrate a pedophile - 22/04/2010 01:07:15 AM 439 Views
This post proves the truth of what I said above. - 22/04/2010 01:58:06 PM 510 Views
I have a very hard time being unbiased on this subject. - 22/04/2010 01:11:31 AM 505 Views
it would probably only help those who are truly pedophiles. - 22/04/2010 01:30:53 AM 436 Views

you can make any argument sound absurd if that is goal - 22/04/2010 05:07:56 PM 460 Views
You misunderstood my logic. - 22/04/2010 05:11:30 PM 498 Views
It is just theory to you. - 28/04/2010 04:55:51 PM 499 Views
And theory is what the law should be about *NM* - 28/04/2010 05:04:40 PM 204 Views
