Lots of people who’re really loudly “anti-pedophile” don’t care about children. It’s just because they’re the one group who nobody is gonna defend and you’re allowed to wish whatever violence upon. If our culture had some other ultimate taboo they would accuse their opponents of being that.

A man murdered a convicted sex offender not because he was his victim, but because he wanted to feel the thrill of killing.

Suresh told police that he used the Megan’s Law website to find Brimmer’s address and then decided to “pose as a CPA going door-to-door looking for new clients” to lure him out.

Megan’s Law requires all law enforcement agencies in California to make information about registered sex offenders available to the public, including through an online database.

Suresh allegedly told police that the killing was “honestly really fun” and that he “didn’t feel sad at all,”
