Thanks BPL.

To Dave Hannam, stevenrailing and anyone else of comparably simple intellect who needs this spelling out: being a paedophile is not a crime. If a paedophile indulges his sexual urges (and of course some of them do - do you think I hadn't worked that out?), then that is a crime. Are you really too stupid to see the difference? Or is it that you want to see people punished for what they think? In which case, bring on Orwell's thought police.

And Dave Hannam, I wonder if you can remember choosing your sexual orientation - be it heterosexual, homosexual or whatever? And what pros and cons you considered in reaching your decision? If we do indeed exercise free choice in the matter, do you seriously think anyone would choose paedophilia?
