I don't know what anyone thinks I'm actually suggesting.
I'm suggesting we try to understand people better. Not hate them for who they are. Hate them if they commit a crime, sure. But until then, don't hate them.
I'm not suggesting you take any less care of your kids. Of course not. You should protect them from every adult you don't know, which already includes unknown paedophiles. What I'm saying is that hating them and making sure they never speak up doesn't achieve anything else. It makes it worse because you don't even know who you're protecting them from. And you're turning them into potential ticking time bombs because they have to hide from everyone. If they could speak out without being mobbed, they could become a reduced risk.
