NY Moves to Ban Sex Offenders From Gaming Platforms

Agree to disagree, neither side is gonna budge really

It's actually both, but ok

Sorry to break it to you, but children aren't just small adults. They are in fact quite different. Molestation is going to have a much, much larger impact on a child than an adult. That isn't really up for debate. if you don't think so, you're wrong.

I never said they'd have the same effect. I still think they're equally bad.

If you steal $10,000 from someone who has $10,000 and steal $10,000 from someone who has $1,000,000, it has a greater impact on the person who only had $10,000, but the action that was done is still one in the same.

So the plan is to get child molesters to stop playing videogames? I cannot see how encouraging them to go outside can go wrong at all no sir.
At least this cant go as badly as previous restrictions on sex offenders have gone. The US literally has hundreds (thousands?) of registered sex offenders that decided to live off the map due to it being effectively impossible to be anywhere without being in violation of some law/parole.

If you shoot Hitler, and you shoot a baby the action is still the same.

[Khajit]

What does baby Hitler have to do with this?

[Yugl]

And some molestations are better than others.

Edit: Baby Hitler was sexually offended by inferior races.

hey guys hit your friend in the face as hard as you can and a baby in the face as hard as you can, it's the same thing

You bite every time. And it's probably because you see how ridiculous your assertion is.

[Day]

It's not ridiculous at all, I mean yeah if you want to go all fox news on me I guess I am saying some molestation is better than others, but that's like saying pro-choice is pro-abortion. Your argument is not only flawed but it is weak. All molestation is horrible, but for reasons such as not being able to defend oneself as well as being life traumatizing, child molestation is clearly worse. Now you can pick out individual exceptions like an idiot if you want.

But day, my friend's cousin was molested when he was 4, and he's just fine, but my aunt's half brother's friend was molested when she was 30, and she killed her self because of it.

Clearly you're wrong.

[Day]

Pretty sure yugl same guy flailing about in the hate crime threads with exact opposite argument

[Yugl]

Now you can pick out individual exceptions like an idiot if you want.

Your claim that some molestations are better than others is not equivalent to saying Pro-choice=Pro-Abortion because I'm not accusing you of saying people should enact molestation. That's your first mistake. Not to mention that people within the abortion thread agreed that some killings are worse than others, so your point is moot.

Your second problem is that you're trying to safeface by using other people's arguments. I agree with the people saying that the potential damage is heightened when children are involved. You're not one of those people. Your sole claim was that molestation of people less capable of defending themselves was worse than in other cases. This is evident by the fact that you added other subsets of people, not necessarily undeveloped, to the list of "Worst cast" molestations.

Third, since your only criteria for "worse" molestations was based on the ability to defend one's self, you enact a notion of "fair molestation." This is where we get to see how ridiculous your claim is. If a person is molested, it clearly did not matter whether they had better or worse means to defend themselves; in the end, they were molested regardless of that means. For you to sit there and spew this bullshit criteria is to treat molestation cases like some sort of wrestling fight where you're looking competitors of relatively equal status. You're essentially looking for a good "show" when it comes to molestation cases. It's utterly disgusting.

[Day]

sorry i didn't give a 5 page dissertation on why child molestation is worse bro, figured you know that's kind of common sense

[Qalbert]

Yugl, give it a fucking break. This is the internet, not stick-up-your-ass debate class. It's painfully obvious what he means, and you're being needlessly obtuse and legalistic about it, not a good look.

It's his fault for acting like a child and not using his damn words. No one is a psychic. If someone wants to be understood clearly, he or she should use his or her damn words like an adult. I'll accept that he failed to communicate coherently and leave this situation alone though.

Nah it's cool, my fault for not giving the right words for something he agrees with me on.

[Qalbert]

You're the one acting like a child, Yugl. "OOOH OOOH I GOT YOU NOW! YOU SAID SOMETHING THAT I CAN CLAIM MEANS SOMETHING EVERYONE KNOWS YOU DON'T MEAN, OH BOY!" Again, not a debate, not a court hearing, cut this legalistic nonsense out. To take him saying "child molestation is worse" and claim "he thinks some molestation is ok" approaches absurd.
