    Everyone’s legal rights should be protected. Sometimes by their own defense attorneys.

    Pedophiles should indeed be protected. They should get as little random violence and degradation or whatever as anyone else.

    Of course, they need to get as much targeted violence from the state as is appropriate for their crimes, i.e. going on trial and convicted. That’s what they can’t be “protected” from.

        One of the saddest things I learned from working with convict’s mental health was that an alarming amount of child abusers weren’t pedophiles. It was a crime of opportunity, not desire, for most of them. And that sort of fucks you up, because most people want a neatly ordered world, however, bad people will do horrible things regardless of whatever neat little boxes society wants to create to put them into.
