>Former Lostprophets vocalist and convicted paedophile Ian Watkins has been grooming a fan from prison. The woman, who first met Watkins when she was 16, had reportedly written to him and visited him in prison. On one visit, he reportedly asked her what she would do if her daughter, aged two, "came into the room during sex". Her child was taken from her care in December, after which she visited Watkins on multiple other occasions. He allegedly suggested that a new ring she was wearing on one visit should act as an 'engagement ring.'

Absolute madman.

Really makes you think...

Some girls like rapists and criminals. If all else fails just become that

and gays

>Watkins denied being a paedophile and expressed exasperation at the way people had reacted to his guilty pleas. >He said: "I'm going to put out a statement on the 18th just to say it was mega lolz. I do not know what everybody is getting so freaked out about." >Told by the woman that what he had planned to say might not be a good idea, he agreed, saying: "It is just lol now."
I'm sick of seeing our close minded, ungrateful, philistine society persecuting this talented artist

Christopher Bennett
Absolutely this. He can't help being attracted to children, the bigotry against people born like him disgusts me
Adam Martin
If Ian was a rapper then I reckon #FreeIan would have been a thing and people would legit be posting this sort of stuff
Ryder Ward
Do you guys think pedophilia is going to be normalized at some point? This legit scares me.
Leo Allen
Or if he was a respected Jewish film director

LEAVE BRYAN SINGER ALONE
Christopher Phillips
if hillary was in office, it would be legal right now
Nolan Edwards
Not at least for a long, long, long time. 99% of people in the first-world still view pedos as being scum.
Lucas Jenkins
Within the next 10 years, screencap this
Nicholas Kelly
It was like that for fags and trannys too at one point
Austin Foster
gays were viewed the same way 60 years ago. it is possible
Juan Cooper
I don't think pedophilia is going to be normalised, but I hope it starts to be treated like a disease rather than some type of deliberate evil (in cases where the pedophile doesn't act on their urges and actually wants help)
If people can't help having the mental condition, there is simply no argument towards shaming them (again, unless they actuallly molest children).
There is no logic to treating them as "bad people" for how they were born or how they developed because of their own fucked up childhood. If they can't help having their condition then there is simply no argument for their mistreatment.
It's a subject that society still gives itself permission to be openly illogical about.
>"Yeah he can't help his urges and he hasn't hurt anyone, but he's still a gross pedo so LETS SHAME AND OSTRACISE HIM EVERYONE"
Matthew Wood
wtf i hate Brand New now
Luke Robinson
The difference is that homosexuality was merely viewed as an immoral act and only came to be accepted when people argued that it doesn't matter if both parties are OK with it. Being as pedophilia is illegal because one party cannot agree to it and is not sexually ready for it I don't think that will be accepted, except with the possible exception of lowering the age of consent, and even that's unlikely.
David Wilson
How does the PUA community react to this news?
Nolan Price
this, they are no different than homosexuals. Either you both put in prison or neither.
Austin Reed
It's really easy to make the other party believe they want it or to normalize child sexualisation
Aiden Robinson
couldn't have said it better
Aaron Walker
Define sexually ready. If a kid hits puberty at 12 and is basically fully grown at 15, is he/she sexually ready?
Aaron Phillips
I don't support Trump...but this is probably correct.
Cameron Scott
can someone just post his court transcripts so we can be done with this thread?

kids as young as 5 years old can undergo sex change surgery and hormone therapy. they fully understand human sexuality.
Joseph Hill
Pre-puberty. Like I said, I could see age of consent potentially being lowered, but pedophilia in the sense of sexual contact with prepubescent children or even pubescent teenagers will never be normalised.
Dominic Bennett
The difference is pretty clear to me. Homosexual sex is between two consenting adults. Homosexual relations effect literally no one except the two people in the relationship, and as long as those two people are consenting adults, then it is really no different than heterosexual relations.
Pedophilia, literally by definition, requires the sexual assault and abuse of a minor in order for the sexual desires to be gratified.
One involves taking advantage of children too young to consent. One does not.
Seems like a pretty clear cut difference to me.

Just so everybody knows, he's not the good vocalist we all remember. False alarm, nobody cares about this guy.
Jacob James
you know the age of consent and what constitutes an adult differs from country to country right?
Jaxson Wilson
Same inbred island.
Samuel Thomas
you know we're talking about a 2-year-old, right?
Dominic Cox
Welsh are Celts, Anglos came from Saxony and other Germanic lands.
Tyler Young
No we aren't, we were taking generally about pedophilia??
Caleb Green
>aged two
Jonathan Hill
>anglos aren't pedophiles Someone's not been seeing the news these past few years.
Wyatt Murphy
But if we look at it empirically, pedophilia or sexual abuse is likely to lead to behavioral problems or mental health issues wheres homosexual sex is similar to heterosexual sex in terms of the impact on the participant's life. That is to say, a largely beneficial contribution to the individual.
Jordan Jackson
that shit should be illegal, i consider it child abuse and bad parenting
Carson Brooks
Explains why they're such pedos. Kraut perverts mixed with Welsh sheep-shaggers.
Brayden Moore
You're deluding yourselves if you think your countries aren't as bad for it, it's just that we actually stop our's... eventually
Cooper Phillips
Yeah, shortly after you knight them.
Daniel Reyes
I understand that, and I also understand that different people mature sexually at different ages so when a person is able to give consent properly is a nebulous concept at best.
However, it's one that needs to be regulated by law, because sexual assault against underdeveloped children is an extremely horrific crime that I'm sure almost everyone would agree is worthy of very harsh punishment by the justice system.
In my opinion, it's better to err on the safe side, and personally I'd say if there is more than a 5 year gap and you are having sex with someone under 18, it's probable you are taking advantage of them and this should be punishable. Obviously this is a pretty strict way of thinking about things but like I said, I'd rather be on the safe side of these things. Better to set the age a bit too old than too young. These kids should be sexually discovering among their own age demographic in their teen years anyways, no need for an older, more experienced person to come in and use their age as a tool to take advantage of children who aren't ready for it.
Lucas Ortiz
Sadly, i think treating it as a mental condition can only help their case in walking free after raping a kid. pic related, canadian schizoid dude killed people and walked free because he can't be held responsible for something he did while in batshit mode.
Adam Turner
Is that real?
Jaxon Morales
You're a retard if you seriously think it will. And conspiracy theorist level conservatives wonder why people think they're stupid.
Ayden Perry
I see what you're saying and I know the case but I disagree
Pedophilia is an attraction to kids. Pedophiles itself does not include or give an excuse for a sociopathic decision to assault a child, they are separate
So I think the attraction itself could be treated as an illness without making allowances for child molestation
Jaxon Young
If we ever live in a post-ideology society then sexual assault and regular physical assault will be seen as equal acts
Levi Cox
True, if they make sure there aren't any loopholes to exploit and help a pedophile get away with it, then i'm ok, but i honestly wouldn't want to be near a pedo, specially if i ever have kids.
Robert Hughes
Jesus, this is pretty fucked up now that the dirty laundry's out.
James Thomas
This is why i support death penalty.
Jayden Morris
Yeah it's a shame but there's nothing to be done, unfortunate incidents happen when people are born and it's more merciful to end their life.
Jose Barnes
damn...
Joseph Wilson
I understand your point, but it seems a little odd that it always seems to be men in power that get away with it for a long time. And it's so prevalent. It kinda activates my almonds a little bit.
Samuel Murphy
No, it’s a bunch of polfags. Look it up.
Tyler Foster
Regardless of what you think of the guy, he seamlessly transitioned from pretty boy rockstar to badass biker villain look for prison
