Offended by an Offender

I read an article on this guy that started both an

organization and a crusade to (to hear him put it) end children

and women rape, and the particulars of the situation pissed me

off.

First of all viewing porn, much less frequenting strip clubs or

patronizing adult bookstores, has no bearing on whether one is

going to be a sexual predator. What about the priests in the

Catholic Church? They do not (or at least they should not,

anyway) do either of those things, yet some of them are guilty

of molesting young boys.

It seems that this guy, in his zeal to assuage his guilty

conscience for what he did in the past, is over-compensating

big-time. From his avenue of attack (targeting legitimate adult

businesses), I'm guessing that he used to go to such places and

it eventually landed him in jail as a criminal. So he figured

particularly like guns (which I don't), and because I shot...

that if he were to eliminate such places, all of society's

sexual deviance and sex crimes would be solved. It doesn't work

that way.

Second of all, he's not only targeting legit adult businesses,

he's harassing those private individuals and patrons that back

them. What gives him the right to take the pictures of

law-abiding citizens who are just exercising their Free Speech

Amendment rights, and post them on his website? That would be

akin to me starting a cyber-registry - which included names and

addresses - of people who purchased guns because I don't

particularly like guns (which I don't), and because I shot

someone years ago by accident.

My point being that the purchase of guns (much like the viewing

or sale of legal pornography) is also protected by the

Constitution, and just because it can lead to heinous results

(in the guns' case, death, dismemberment, paralysis, permanent

injury and/or permanent scars) doesn't make the gun purchase any

less of a protected right.

For the most part, one must already have it within oneself to do

physical harm to another human being in order to make the leap

from simple pornophile to a sexual molester. The majority of

people who are addicted to porn or smut or adult material or

whatever you want to call it, just wind up ruining their own

personal lives, jobs, relationships, friendships, health, and/or

finances.

Just ask Kirk Franklin...
