Pedophiles are now demanding their rights as a protected class and claim that wanting to have sex with children is just their normal orientation. Some idiotic study claims that children don't suffer any serious consequences from having sex with an adult.
The Repubs wanted to exclude pedophiles from being including in the groups who are considered a protected class, but the Dems refused and apparently consider pedophiles to be people with alternative sexual lifestyles and not the mental disease that it is.
"B4U-Act calls pedophiles "minor-attracted people." The organization’s website states its purpose is to, "help mental health professionals learn more about attraction to minors and to consider the effects of stereotyping, stigma and fear."
In 1998 The APA issued a report claiming "that the ‘negative potential’ of adult sex with children was ‘overstated’ and that ‘the vast majority of both men and women reported no negative sexual effects from childhood sexual abuse experiences."
Pedophilia has already been granted protected status by the Federal Government. The Matthew Shephard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act lists "sexual orientation" as a protected class; however, it does not define the term.
Republicans attempted to add an amendment specifying that "pedophilia is not covered as an orientation;" however, the amendment was defeated by Democrats. Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-Fl) stated that all alternative sexual lifestyles should be protected under the law. "This bill addresses our resolve to end violence based on prejudice and to guarantee that all Americans, regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability or all of these ‘philias’ and fetishes and ‘isms’ that were put forward need not live in fear because of who they are. I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of this rule.""
