And some people say pedo threads achieve nothing. Thanks :)
(and for the record, I have never been pro-pedophilia)

We don't really have much earnest input. We face absolute hate worse than hitler, or we get terribly delusion feedback from enablers.
I've visited sites that were supposed to be like help forums. You might start to have an honest conversation where people are open to changing how they thing, then the self-righteous enablers come in. A lot of what they say does make sense. It's easy to fall back into "I'm not the problem."
I don't feel wrong. I feel shameful and guilty when around a loli, but my feelings don't feel wrong. It's the same feeling of being around a pretty woman, only stronger. It's a "good" feeling that is accompanied by terrible feelings of guilt, shame, and embarrassment.
The reason I jump on any pedo topic (well most, I've purposely avoided some) is I'd like to just talk about it with someone who understands or make people understand and get some feedback that might be helpful.
There are people here who are very open-minded and capable of critical thought. They don't judge the condition but the actions. Which is so wonderful, that you couldnt possibly ever understand.
However, we live in an hostile society. Look at the punishments for viewing CP. It ruins your life. I'm not saying there isn't anything wrong with it, but the penalties for looking at something are too severe. Making it illegal wont stop anyone from looking at it. Also, CP doesn't mean child rape videos. It doesn't even need to involve nudity or sexual acts. For someone like me, it's not a big deal. I'm not exclusive. For someone who is exclusive, I really feel it's too severe. If someone's making or involved in distributing stuff, that's different, but some poor fuck who breaks and downloads some shit that doesn't look bad (from what ive read online, and what a lot delusional pedos use as a defense is that the children look to enjoy and welcome the abuse -- which makes sense. Children trust adults. Theyre supposed to. They don't yet realize they are being taken advantage of) it's cruel and unusual punishment. Your life is over. At least for 10 years (I think you only need to register for 10 years for that). People are gonna look. It isn't gonna stop it. The punishment doesn't fit the crime. People hate pedos though, so even those willing to defend us are silenced. Looking at pictures/videos of children doesn't make you any more likely to rape a child than a pedo who doesn't (in fact, you could argue the opposite and it's not an out there proposal. It's known that an outlet can reduce instances of sexual assault. You can't legalize CP though, so it's kind of a worthless argument). Soon, with computer animation getting better, there can be a harmless alternative, but you know that it would be targeted for obscenity.
It's not easy to be a pedo and have a realistic worldview. You face such hate (mostly confused because abusers are callled pedophiles as often as molesters -- rapists aren't called "homosexuals" or "into blondes".
I don't feel wrong. Feelings are feelings. They are neutral. We have a medical condition. Somewhere our development fucked up, and we got fucked for life. Whenever someone is told they cant have something they want, they don't end up wanting it any less.
Pedophiles should be treated with compassion. If someone's diddling children, hate them. It's like treating every man like a rapist. It's like it "man" was interchangeable with rapist.
We have no outlets for real compassion or help. We're broken, but we are still human. We want what everyone wants.
Direct your hate where it belongs. You don't treat someone with hostility because they find someone attractive you think is ugly. Well, people do sometimes, but that's insecurities.
I don't know if I have a point. It's been an hour since i started to write this. Stupid work getting in the way.

Obviously, the only opinion that matters.

If he gets the republican nomination, I'll vote for him.
He won't though.

Hey, i don't choose to hate ketchup, and you don't choose to like flat chests. I don't think it makes you a bad person as long as you have self control over your actions.

Google Blue Republicans! Ron Paul needs help from Democrats and Independents who care about liberty (i.e. ending wars, ending Patriot Act, ending gov spying etc) because the Democrat candidate is already chosen, so they can't influence that Party for good.

If this was the back-in-the-day USA, the Republican candidate would be Ron Wyden and the Democrat candidate would be Ron Paul.

How far back? Ron Paul is a true republican in the most major ways. Isolationist being chief among them.

I don't mean this to be offensive: you are brainwashed. You have been told your whole life that letting people do what they want will cause chaos and that you have to give control of your life to a small group of people to live a happy life.
This is a lie! The truth is that corporations are both unduly helped and hindered by government regulation. Surely the best type of regulation is that imposed by the individual, not that imposed upon the individual.
I do not oppose all regulation. For example, I know of no other solution to carbon pollution than regulation. Private property laws could possibly deal with typical air and water pollution better than regulation; but carbon, being invisible and odorless does not really damage property in the way that other pollution does.
