Whoa pump your brakes freak.

1. Alice springs is a major NT township with a average age that is well below the national average, with corresponding high unemployment and child abuse, low levels of education etc. A PAEDOPHILES PARADISE in other words. Think about it for fuck sake.
2. Gays NEVER hurt anyone? Really.

I mean, I don't support the harrassment or anything ... I think these people are tools ... But I don't feel sorry for him either, dude kidnapped and raped three kids, if he dies a slow and terrible death it'd be okay with me.

But these people are just making themselves out to be animals imho.
Really? see, i thought the police only found vasaline on the girls vagina, the other 2 kids were untouched. Oh yeah and they didnt find any signs of penetration either, his explanation for the situation is actually quite plausible, i know i wouldnt have been able to convict because i would have doubt in my mind over what happened which is probably why he got such a light sentence.


His chances of re offending are tiny. He is blind in one eye and can barely see out the other, he is an old man with vigilant parents picketing his house. I would be more worried about uncle Tom who is babysitting the kids while you are picketing. Statistics show that the pedophile in the shadows is a myth, 99% of the time the sexual abuser of your kids is a trusted adult.


sure the man is a perverted freak with no remorse, but dont blame him if the courts let him out when he was not rehabilitated


I love it how everyone says he has so remorse. The thing is, he had no choice about that. He very well might have wanted some help to deal with his issues and talk about it while in jail, unfortunately that wasnt an option for him. Whilst we say we want to reform our prisoners, his situation was such that he believed saying anything or acting at all like he was guilty would lead to more years on his sentence. Just got to love our legal system, hey. A man wants help and he cant get it because if he tries he will be rewarded with a longer sentence. I would have kept quiet too.


'Pedophiles are treated abhorrently by the public and media in general.' and so they should be? do you think different?
they should be moved to alice springs int he middle of no where or just stya in jail. Porblem is mainly solved.
and homosexuality is in a clearly different section to paedophilia!
gays never hurt anyone, paedophiles do.
Homosexuals were treated badly by the public and media once too. No i dont think they should be treated badly, pedophilia is a sexual preference, they cant choose to be attracted to kids. If they could, do you really think they like being universally hated? people wanting to kill them? almost no chance of being sexually satisified, and if they do they have now commited a crime? even owning porn they find stimulating is illegal? Sounds very much like what the gays faced 50 years ago.

pedophiles and child abusers are not the same thing.

The problem is people lump them together. Its as ridiculous as saying someone who is fascinated by violence and enjoys violent films and video games is necessarily a violent criminal.

There is no reason to universally hate pedophiles because many of them do not ever abuse children.

Similarly not all child abusers are pedophiles. Many are just opportunistic or sadistic people who are actually primarily sexually attracted to adults.

We will never be able to move forward with these issues and start treating pedophiles in a way that is conducive to preventing them from becoming child abusers unless people start to understand this distinction.

no he chose to be what he is on his own accord
God does not make people sin, God is not responsible for this
So god didn't make him a pedophile, just like he doesn't make people gay right?

So if these people are naturally homosexual and attracted to adults, why do so many chose an alternative that results in scorn, ostracism and in the case of pedophilia, imprisonment?

If god is a perfect all knowing god, and everything that happens is part of his master plan, why is the abuse of children permitted to happen at all by this benevolent god?

I mean I understand the free choice argument that you guys pull out when you say we are free to not believe in god, and free choice is important. That's fine because the only person supposedly harmed is the non believer who misses out on going to heaven by not believing.

But in the case of pedophilia, the pedophile's "choice" to be a abuse children results in innocent children being harmed. What kind of god allows millions of children to be sexually abused, suffering enormous pain and agony that often destroys their lives when by definition this all powerful god can easily stop it from happening?

Punishment doesnt fit the crime anyway. He only fucked 3 kids and he got given 14 years and now he has to live in Ryde? bit harsh

It is a difficult situation.

From an objective viewpoint, he has served his time, and 'justice' has been achieved. There are hundreds of other convicted paedophiles out there living in anonymity. Why should this man be treated any differently?

Subjectively though, if I were a parent in the area, I would have extreme reservations about having a man of this nature living in the same street, or near to their school. This of course is where emotion tends to cloud objective reasoning.

We can partially blame the presiding sentencing Judge for the situation. He failed to make an order for a psychiatric assessment to determine his ability to control the sexual urges, instead opting for the usual mode of sentencing. Without this assessment, we are left in doubt as to whether this man is a psychopath with a never ending desire for sexual gratification with children.

Interesting article here: Perversion of the law - background to the Dennis Ferguson case | The Courier-Mail
This is going to happen everywhere though, what is he supposed to do? Go back to gaol? It's silly really.

The man is elderly, blind and well known to every child in the area. The chances of him reoffending are nil. It's the 10 other sex offenders who were never reported in the area that you have to worry about.

Further, you either believe in locking paedophiles in gaol forever, or you believe that at some point they have done their time and should be given another chance.

Yep. What a beat up. The public incapacity to forgive is probably as morally repugnant as the crime imo

If a person molested/raped a member of your family, would you forgive them (even if they have done their time) etc?
You have to be empathetic for these families. This man only thought about himself.

I believe in locking them in jail forever.

But once they are released, it does no one any good to continually harass them.
