I think you're missing my point again. I didn't say that a sexual deviant has no choice but to act on their impulses. I said they have no control over the fact that the impulses exist in their heads. There is a big difference there. What I was getting at earlier was that, if a sexual deviant who as I said has these urges and thoughts going through their mind, finds that they cannot satisfy their urges using material which we find offensive but is not based on reality, the urge to act out on their sexual deviances in real life may become stronger.
I really can't see why you keep saying that what I am pointing out in relation to this specific issue must have bearing on all other crimes. There is no such thing as a universal across the board standpoint when it comes to crime because all crimes are different. They have different motives, victims, modus operandi, consequences and moral deviations. Therefore they should all be treated differently in keeping with their circumstances.
Without trying to start a flame war pjz, i'm debating these points with you not trying to pick you apart. I understand that you feel passionate about this, but please try not to say things like 'That is absolute nonsense' and 'Obviously assault should be legalized!'. Debate with me by all means however.
