Hope they fucking throw away the key 😡🤮

RadioactiveWear · 13/03/2023 19:58

Also, how stupid is he?

Probably not so much stupid, but unable to control his sick mind, and having no compassion for another human being and the suffering he causes, so long as he gets what he wants.

Great news.

You cannot cure people (let's face it, men mostly) being sexually attracted to children, if you could cure it you could cure other sexual attractions ( same sex etc) the moral ones will make sure they are never in a position to be near children and control themselves, the immoral will never be able to be trusted. The only way to protect children is for offenders to be permanently removed from society. Prison works, its letting them out that doesn't!
Unfortunately perverts are being encouraged by the creeping drive to normalise grooming. See the threads about the Isle of Man, trans grooming etc.

Munchyseeds2 · 13/03/2023 20:05

Good! Hope he stays there

SirSamVimesCityWatch · 13/03/2023 20:08

Shock horror, paedophiles don't change. Fuck's sake, why do they let them out??

Lwrenagain · 13/03/2023 20:09

God I hope this despicable bastard just dies soon.

Re chemical castration, I believe its been proven in many cases that men who've been CC they've began using objects to sexually abuse their victims instead.
Unfortunately the only paedophiles who CC will benefit are the ones who genuinely don't want to hurt children and are willing to be CC.

I believe Gary Glitter is a very cruel, committed paedophile with extreme sexual desires to hurt children as opposed to someone who hates they've a predisposition for children and are desperate to be cured of their predilection.

I think Gary glitter needs to fuck off and die, he's never ever going to be rehabilitated.

I'm very much pro rehabilitation, even for people who've hurt children, some people though are just beyond it, in my humble opinion.

Floralnomad · 13/03/2023 20:10

Good , perhaps they’ll keep him there permanently

TwoMonthsOff · 13/03/2023 20:11

@Lwrenagain
i agree with your post very much

Chemical castration wouldn't stop him watching porn made by other people.

Please don’t call it porn. It’s child abuse images.

54isanopendoor · 13/03/2023 20:14

It's Good that he was caught so quickly.
It's evidence that he should not be released in the future. Ever.

I think this is correct I really do

TwoMonthsOff · 13/03/2023 20:23

@Lwrenagain

i wonder if it still gets royalties

According to the Guardian, ‘Snapper Music, an independent music company based in London, said it had owned the master rights since February 1997 and Glitter was not entitled to any royalties from the catalogue.’

HikingforScenery · 13/03/2023 20:25

He only served 8years for all that?! That’s terrible. Good that he’s caught again before he could harm others

AnyFucker · 13/03/2023 20:26

There is no “rehabilitation” for predatory paedophiles

They will do it again at the 1st opportunity

notthisagainforest · 13/03/2023 20:27

Throw away the key

TwoMonthsOff · 13/03/2023 20:29

@WarmSausageTea
thank you that’s a small glimmer of reassurance (as if anyone would play that shit anyway) but you never know

CatNamedEaster · 13/03/2023 20:29

By the way, the Independent link contains the phrase "child pornography" which really fucks me off so I've sent them a complaint.

TwoMonthsOff · 13/03/2023 20:30

@CatNamedEaster
i know it’s so grubby and inappropriate well done for complaining
