    Yes I hadn’t considered the reporting could be protected and not lead directly to jail. You are correct this should be the way. We just need to have a program set up to accept them.

      It’s a huge relief to talk to someone who gets it.

      We have 130 billion dollars available to give to law enforcement. 800 billion to defense. And not a dollar to treatment and counseling for people with potentially harmful attractions? It doesn’t make sense. The first step should be discussion of the problem and potential solutions. I’d like to see research done into the attraction, find out if there are environmental causes (ie. preventable ones), treatment for people with the attraction (can it be replaced? is there a non-harmful maintenance that makes it tolerable without relapse?), and justice for the victims & families that includes more than revenge.
