Being abused causes changes which affect the rest of your life and the people around you, even if they don't know about it. The abuser should suffer for as long as the victim. Abigail

Sorry to get involved again, but just had to say, I watched a programme a while ago, regarding Scotland Yard's work to try to find and imprison paedophiles and one of them actually said he was willing to be castrated, but it would be pointless because he knew that his feelings to abuse came from his head and not his genitals. His feelings were so strong that he committed suicide during the making of the programme. M.

Hi, Without going into too much graphic detail studies show that castration has little effect on a crime that is as much about power and control as it is about sex. I agree with Sarah. Justice must be done but through the legal system. I would never join in a mob baying for blood and, yes, someone close to me has been a victim. I have also worked with abused children. I believe life imprisonment or confinement is the only suitable punishment for paedophiles. Gwynne

Agree Snoopy unfortunately the laws of this country do not allow castration.My brother in law was an Hospital officer in a Prison,Shortly before he was released a sex offender came to my b-i-l and said I would like to be castrated 'I am being released soon and I know I will reoffend' at least this one particular offender admitted to his problems! D

Just read this thread, I believe GG and all paedofiles should be sent to alcatraz for life. sue

Sorry one more last word, what happend to lyn's post's, something about courage and convictions comes to mind. tina

i have to say i use to think if they serve their sentence (any crime) maybe they should be given a chance, now im 41 have kids and have seen and heard a lot of cxxp thats happened to people by criminals and low life, no he shouldnt be allowed back here, jonathon king shouldnt be free either, and if anyone asked me shouldnt low lifes who harm or kill be freed, after theyd done their sentence, id say take a look at the family i saw today, ask the 14 year old how long his dads killers should get, personally life isnt good enough for them, ill step careful of me soap box now, i musnt rant on about other crimes too

Lyn As the Sun is one of Britains most widely read newspapers am i to take it that in your opinion a Sun Reader has has a lower mentality than yourself. I respect you right to have an opinion and to express your opinions freely I also have a right to have mine, and mine is that yours stinks and thank God for all the Sun Readers. Tina ( now that really is my last word)

i know i said i had had my last word on this subject but i feel i must reply to lyn. the 5 year old son of one of my emplyees was taken out of his own garden taken to epping forest and raped and by a stranger i might add. and also the boy Jason who was gang raped and suffocated to death by the pervert cooke and his gang would you decribe their familys hatred histerical. i found that a really offensive comment. Tina

I know everyone has their own opinions, which is good, as if we all had the same it would be very boring. This is the first time that I have come across anyone saying that a paedophille has served his time, and should be allowed to live normaly. I am sorry but that is the crapiest opinion ever. I just cant believe anyone could have this opinion at all. You carry on but you will get knocked down for your opinion. that is my opinion anyway.

Same here Gillie, we will never agree on this one and I may end up offending you and I don't want to do that, as I don't know you. So I think I had better bow out of this one now. M.

Sarah I don't live my life as a victim, I live it as a survivor, there is a difference. M.

You think they abide by these conditions, no way. Read my last message I do everything legally, not take the law into my own hands. They should not be let out, they should remain locked up, they cannot be cured and will remain a danger for the rest of their lives. Paedos ruin lives, not just the survivors, but the rest of the family's too. M.

I think he should be put down.

Morffydd - I didn't once say I forgive! This isn't about forgiveness, this is about justice and the law. I do, however, refuse to live out the rest of my life as a victim. I personally believe that he will get his just desserts - what goes around comes around, if not in this life then in the next. I won't lower myself to his standard by making up my own rules.

Gillie, I may have read your message wrongly, but I can assure you any action I take is always legal and would you be happy if a paedo came to live in your street?

Gwynne, I totally agree with you - our legal system is rather like a torn mosquito net!!!! The government talks of sectioning for ilfe people with certain mental illnesses 'In case they hurt someone', and a paedophile gets 4 months!! Isn't that about the same as you get if you haven't paid your TV license, and are too poor to pay the fine???? The law in this country thinks more of revenue than people!! maggie

Thanks you lot. Sarah, I have moral standards, to know the difference between good and evil, to know the difference between right and wrong. But, if you truly knew how it felt to be a survivor of abuse, you would not be able to be so forgiving, no matter how high your moral standards. Tell me the truth would you like a paedo living close to you? Yes death is too good for these people, so sorry if I offend anyone, but why are innocent animals experimented on for the good of others, eg. cures for illnesses, etc. Experiment on paedos, then they will be giving something back to society. M.

Sarah, i dont wish to get into an argument with you so this will be my last word on the subject, while you are taking pride in your morals the pervert that you know of is more than likely putting some one elses child through the truma of abuse and if you think that your moral standards are higher than mine then we will have to agree to dissagree. Tina

I know from experience the damage caused by a sexual pervert - but I choose to let the law deal with it rather than lower myself to his level. If I were to have taken up the offers from members of my family to 'deal' with things, I would be no better than the culprit, and I pride myself on being a better person. I'm sorry if you think that having some moral standards makes me worthy of your derision.
