Humans are animals. I'm not sure how anyone could suggest otherwise. I think the comparison of a sick animal to a sick human being is relevant, because there are some situations where society benefits as a whole with the removal of an individual from the collective.
Like baby rapers.

You have no idea. Most pedophilies are they way they are because someone else did it to them when they were very young.

The majority of pedophiles weren't abused as children. It is true that some were, and that there are clear cycles of violence that perpetuate. But you have jumped to the conclusion that all offenders have the excuse that they were once victims too.
It simply isn't true.

Do you have any concept of forensic psychology?

Yes, I do.

Most ****ed up people in this world are the way they are because of tramatic childhood experiences. They did not choose for those things to happen to them. Like you said, they are the way they are....they cannot help it. This doesn't mean that they cannot choose to act on their impulses, they DO have that choice and if they violate someone they need to be removed from society...forever.

I agree. Lets remove them permanently with 100% certainty and break the cycle of violence against kids.

But don't be so quick to say someone deserves death. How would you feel if some freak molested you as a small child and screwed you mental for life? Do you think you should be put down like a sick animal or atleast be allowed to live without risk of hurting others? Who knows, someday they may beable to cure this.

I'm sure the cure for homosexuality is right behind (sarcasm). Lets get real - there isn't going to be a magic bullet that "cures" pedophillia any more than years of work in psychology has cured depression.
Long enough term? Sure, we might get some sort of brain shocking implant or other sci fi thing. But that's a strawman. Far enough out anything's possible.
In the meantime I don't see any big loss in losing a few child skinners from the gene pool.

I have zero tolerance for sexual predators aswell, that doesnt mean they deserve a death sentence.

In my mind executing child molesters is completely justified for the reasons above
- It's incurable.
- It's preyed upon our weakest individuals.
- It is deliberately thought out and pre planned.
I guess you'd rather have society support these freaks in prison - where they have access to the internet, the possibility of parole, etc etc, to the tune of 80 grand a year.
I'm sure the next little girl who gets raped with give you a big "thanks" for being so enlightened.

Where do you draw the line???? Does some guy deserve death because he took one picture of a naked child?

Oh look - the slippery slope argument. Wow, big surprise. You point out who is suggesting the death penalty for a dude looking at a naked child, and I'll answer your question.
