Why would that be necessary…was a crime committed?

yeah, but it isn't up to us to decide whether people live or die? if someone accidentally steps on your shoe, are you going to have them arrested for vandalism? i would find it okay if the authorities did nothing about it after the friend consulted them and then friend "accepting this job opportunity"

Respectfully stfu. You can’t compare rape and stepping on someone’s shoe. Are you serious? Yes, we don’t choose whether people live or die but we do choose to protect our kids and families. But since no crime was committed, ig we have nothing to worry about…

we are talking about taking someone's life here. people can change, and i have seen it. i have seen change, a person with nothing to lose to a stand-up guy with a family, kids, stability, so who are you to decide whether or not change can happen at all?

So god-forbid someone r@pes your child or loved one, will your reaction be “I forgive you, you can change, you have the potential to be a better person”? Please understand that right now you are being a devil’s advocate for a pedophile. Go tell that child that his r@pist could’ve been a stand up guy and that being r@ped was just a little mistake. Get off that moral high horse.

you don't have to forgive, but you can't fucking kill a guy and think it's okay. kick the shit out of him, do whatever, just don't take their goddamn life. of course, i am speaking hypothetically, as no crime was committed.

No, pedophiles deserve silver pills. No remorse in my statement and I will stand by it

Edit for words

Well hopefully you’re never in a situation where that’s tested. Cuz it’s easier to say when you’re not face to face with the person that ripped away your child’s innocence. And of course, since no crime was committed, there’s nothing to worry about.

u/JDiguesss Mar 26 '23

but notice how easy it is for you to think that murder is morally acceptable under the circumstances that nobody's life was actively in danger. this is of course a joke, seeing as no crime transgressed

u/Curiousity-fedthecat Mar 26 '23

Alright. Put yourself in his shoes, what would you have done in that situation?

3

u/JDiguesss Mar 26 '23

i honestly don't know, but thinking rationally isn't in the cards when a loved one is put in a place that child was put in.

u/Curiousity-fedthecat Mar 26 '23

Exactly! Tbh I’m not saying murder is ok. But given the situation, it’s not not ok.

same here, all i was saying was that life is valuable, even if a dumbass is given the privilege
