Different countries and societies mount different social and legal responses to the demon “pedo.” In the UK, as in much of the US, it is a requirement for communities to be informed when a convicted CSO moves into the area; this has given rise to some press and community reactions that look a lot like vigilantism. In some jurisdictions, people are kept on registers (signing up with local authorities, restricted from working with young people, etc.) long after they have served their prison sentence and done their probation.
I believe anytime-active pedophiles shouldn’t be allowed near children unless they’re chemically castrated. Or actually castrated. The offending pedophile cannot change its nature, so the prohibition with being near children must and should be for life. I have empathy for children victims. While the pedophile can’t help being what it is, I can find no empathy for it in me, unless it’s taking the medication to stop the behavior.
