Stop being mean on the internet

Man, that is a hell of an issue as someone that has children; coexist with pedos? First of all, we don't know a pedo is a pedo until they do some pedo shit. If I'm pushing my kid on the swing, and the park sign says "no adults without children". But same dude, everyday, alone, not inside the gate but fixated on my daughter.

I am not coexisting with shit. I've matured and chilled, but when I realized this was a thing, I showed up alone and put a pistol in his face and moved parks. I have absolutely no regrets as I would not allow harm to come to her.

This is not an ideal situation, but the stakes are too high. I honestly wish the man no ill will, and it is a simple calculus; especially with the Epstein victims coming forward, we see when a pedophile becomes a child molester the child has to carry that and we know how much this fucks with victims. That can't happen. She lives with her grandpa now who ironically is a high ranking Marine or some shit. If I were to guess I think he would go further to protect her.

Someone like Harvey Weinstein was a sexual predator (attracted to sexual assaulting grown woman) until the victims became prey. How many victims, for how long? Everyone is down to kick Harvey Weinstein out of society because he acted. But for how long prior did they coexist with this man in an incredibly fucked situation.

Of course we can't just go kicking people out of society, and maybe I am playing semantics, but coexisting...with people we hate sure. But with people that are a threat, like a pedo, like a sexual predator, like a jew hater. Maybe it's that word "coexist" that has me fucked up but these types it's not just hate. It's the fact that they don't become the thing until they do the thing and by then it's too late.

To be honest I don't really feel hatred for anyone, being locked up, in the street, I always been fascinated as to why people are the way they are. And usually why they are the way they are, is they were victimized and became the thing. When a sexual predator acts someone is raped. When a pedo acts a child is molested. When a serious Jew hater acts, look at history.

Sorry for the rant, and I honestly do not have answers, but I do disagree with the notion we have to deal with people we hate more than people we like. And I cannot help but think this statement was to sidestep the tough question...simply lumping pedos and jew haters into "people we hate" doesn't track.
