Death appears to be the only effective means of dealing with child molesters at this time. Over the years children have had childhood stripped from them for fear of molesters. Compare trick-or-treating of the past to present. Men and their manhood are questioned because of this. They are seen as potential molesters now. Yet for all the overprotection children continue to be raped in seemingly epidemic proportions. Whether the frequency is real or perceived is another matter of debate, but it is enough to have changed our society.
And society is getting sick of it.
Then "sick of it" society needs to be educated that perception is not actually reality. Especially when peoples lives are on the line.
Society is sick of the
epidemic of school and other mass shootings and wants to start screwing with peoples lives and rights to "assault weapons and hi-cap mags" because of it.
Except that, regardless of media-driven perceptions, there
isn't and hasn't been an epidemic of school and other mass shootings and thus no additional regulations or infringements are necessary.
If anything, reporting of child abuse by and to authorities is better, which is a good thing as we can see if what we are doing has effect and scientifically approach the issue, but that doesn't mean the actual
rates are truly increasing nor that we are gripped by some new "epidemic" that somehow requires new and more extreme measures.
Simply put, it is most likely that we are just more aware of what has been going on all along, with society and its children somehow surviving all these years with standard, proven, criminal justice responses.
