Here we go again. I listened to our Home Secretary on TV this morning and she was in true politico speak flow. Some of the sentances she said didn't even make sense; she said that she wasn't going to apologise for having one of the toughest child offender laws in this country. That said to me she's switched off the subject and is pushing politics.
The problem with removing someones passport is that it is an infringement of rights. It is up to the receiving country to say, "We don't want you." Not only that, there is nothing that stops non-national offenders from coming to THIS country. All this does is concentrate the sex offenders within our own borders and put our own children at hightened risk. Idiocy of the highest proportions, yet again. WHO is responsible for what is coming out of the Home Office these days?
I have previously quoted Mr Brian Kellett, writing under the name of Tom Reynolds in the book, “Blood, Sweat and Tea.”...
“Imagine, if you will, getting sent to a job where a 15-year old boy is threatening suicide. You turn up at the address and discover that it is a care home. Meeting with one of his carers she hands you a list of the boy's medications and it reads like a, “Who's Who” of psychiatric drugs. You talk to the boy and he seems calm, collected and very polite. He explains that he wants to jump out of a window and kill himself, and agrees that he would like to go to hospital. You take him in to the paediatric department of a local hospital. As this does not feel like the normal, “Teenager wants to kill themselves” you have a chat wit the children's nurse and you ask them to let you know what happens to the patient. You leave and continue with your shift. The next day you ask the children's nurse about the patient and she tells you, “The boy wanted to die because he wants to have sex with, and kill small children – and that he knows that it is wrong.
I hate paedophiles as much as any other member of society, but in front of me that day, I saw a victim.”
... punishment is getting harder, but where is there an actual route and research towards stopping the drives of sex offenders to be attracted to child offending? I'm transsexual, and I know there is no, "cure," ... I have walked in the psychiatric wards where the walls bear the marks of the electrocution equiment that was supposed to cure us ... it couldn't work ... it didn't work ... but there were other ways. I live a good life, have a job, support my household and work artistically ... why isn't our government working towards a method of giving these people avenues of control which doesn't involve actual abuse of children?
Our society is pathetically hell bent on persecution ... just line the offenders up against the wall and give them a good stoning ... that seems to be all that is on our democratic, intellectually advanced, socially progressive minds.
