ALERT: Review of the Anderson Copper Show: Inside the mind of sex offenders
Our Comments About The Show:
Educating people on what to look for pertaining to sexual abuse, is a good thing, but not when you use titles like "Inside the mind of a sex offender" and the show is about people who have molested children, or have sexual desires toward children (pedophilia).
The show should've been called "Inside the mind of a child molester or pedophile" to be more accurate, not all sex offenders, which this show makes it seem, are either. Many are teens who have had sexual relations with their underage girlfriend, when they themselves were just a couple years older.
This is just pure disinformation. If you came out with a show called "Inside the mind of a Christian" and then had a couple radicals on your show who have committed hate crimes or terrorist acts, you can bet many other Christians would come out and say basically the same thing we are here.
Use the terms properly, and stop lumping all sex offenders into the "child molested / pedophile / predator / child killer" group, that is just wrong!
I liked the show, but as
ReplyDeleteusual, you use the term "sex offender" and make it appear as if all sex
offenders are child molesters or pedophiles, and that is simply not
true. I like Anderson Cooper, but after today's usual demonization of
ex-sex offenders, maybe not.

i also in agreement with this comment! it is disgusting when i hear on t.v. when they report do know if a sex offender lives near you? but they never go so far to report if someone has killed some child or adult and for some reason has got off with lighter sentence and is living near you!
