It suddenly occurred to me Wed night while watching Criminal Minds that there's an awful lot of drama programmes on tv recently that covers paedophilia. (Is that spelled correctly??)
It seems to be everywhere right now, on every programme....Without a Trace, Vanished, Law & Order Criminal Intent and then yesterday on Oprah, a whole show dedicated to the subject. Is it on the rise, I mean we know it HAPPENS, so why aren't they're stronger steps to prevent it, and the biggest question....WHY? I mean really why would you want to mess with young children like that? I can't get it round my head at all. And no this hasn't anything to do with the fact that I'm going to be a mother soon, I've always found this topic obviously distasteful and upsetting, but I can't help but feel that it's EVERYWHERE right now...it's covered throughout and I don't know why more isn't being done to stop it...because clearly it's a situation that is happening a lot, everywhere, all over the world and this makes me very scared.
I mean they say it's a disease, a disease of the mind, mainly through males. I don't know, maybe I should research it more, but I don't really want to, I'm a little in denial really and don't want to see the statistics online. I really just want it to stop, easy to say huh? So why can't a clearly psychological illness/sickness like that be cured/tests made? shit test the guys that are ALREADY incarcerated
Personally my own way of making it a preventative is to chop off their genitals and make them eat them, but we live in a supposedly civilised society where things like that just don't happen. I'm guessing once they're incarcerated they give them something that prevents them getting an an erection, but it's too late then, the damage to the child/children has been done. I don't even want them put to death, no I've never agreed with the death penalty, many disagree with me, but I don't feel that murdering a person, regardless of how sick their crimes are, helps anybody. In fact it puts a sudden finality to their lives, which some of those sick bastards want. let them suffer in a very small space, with no exercise and limited communication. But it still doesn't stop the atrocity of this sick crime.
Anyway I'm sorry to harp on about such a depressing subject but it's really starting to bother me, more because it does seem to be everywhere right now, I guess you could blame the internet for being partly responsible for making it so easy to conduct their seedy business that way, but god I wish something more could be done. I want more people like Oprah and that guy from the NBC programme that flushes them out to multiply......everything and anything to keep our kids safe.
I want it addressed more, I want more resources to be made available to enable governments to flush out the major ring leaders. I don't know, I just want something MORE TO HAPPEN, TO STOP IT.
By the way this guy above IS on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List and has been for years as a known child molester. Well come on, I mean what else could he be? look at that face.....ew
Right then anyway I guess I should move on. I'm sorry, I know my projection of my feelings is somewhat limited due to my total inability to write professionally, but you know how I am, I write like I speak, so it's quick and doesn't always come out clearly?Ok well I have my doctors real soon, I also forgot my best mate Julie's birthday AGAIN which fucking sucks, I'm so annoyed with myself, so I've sent her flowers, but they won't get to her until next Tuesday which is crap, but there you go.
Ok well I'm just watching the taped Survivor from last night which is a bit slow and boring to be honest, but that's because it's still so new and everyone's being really nice to each other. It's much better when everyone starts bitching and getting arsey.
Have a great weekend everyone....Oh yeah Luis came round last night and the room is NEARLY done, he's back next Tuesday (would of preferred tomorrow but that's ok) to finish up, THEN we can paint it, throw a rug in, get the cribs etc and we're done....yay.
I just have to keep my legs crossed until we're all done then my little darling can come out whenever he wants.....
