you have to be seriously compromised or "disordered" to argue it's not a crime. like with most bad (in this case heinous) acts it may be both, but it is definitely a crime (literally too --- its on the criminal books in every state)

Well, technically, you have to be an ACTIVE pedophile for it to be crime. There's at least one self-proclaimed pedophile on this board who has pointed to that technicality in a post to me.

uh, yeah, there's no thought police....yet. but, can you be a pedophile without acting upon it? (don't wanna google that definition). anyway, yes you can think about murder all day and not be subject to a related crime unless you try, assist, or complete a murder

Evidently, there is at least one "pedophile" here who claims that he can just think about it -- without acting on it.

What's their subscriber base? I know that once upon a time they used to be quite prestigious but editorials of that nature must have even their most staunch supporters shaking their heads. How many angry letters to the editor do you imagine this one received?

Better post that to v/pizzagatememes . Also I think it would have a better effect if the last point would be replaced with a "Pizzagate is fake news" article/ quote from NYT

You know, from Jimmy did nothing wrong to James did nothing wrong...
