Over pediphilia. Why is it that this thread is so easily distracted? I suppose the subject matter is very disturbing so can understand but we need to stick to facts. That parade had ugly naked men parading their packages before children. Those and the parents who brought these kids should have a day in jail to think about their crime. It is a crime, I believe, appropriately punishable. Is it everywhere? Unfortunately not. I don't always get what I wish but it would be nice to live in a society that was truly interested in protecting kids from garbage.
OK, I thought you were saying that people who disagreed with you that it should be illegal should go to jail. I was confused.
Now that I understand what you were actually advocating, I'll respond.
There's no denying that bringing a child to a gay pride parade is repulsive, and that parading in front of children is repulsive. I'm with you on that.
Even still, I don't think more legislation is the right solution. The right solution, in my opinion, is as follows
1. Private property. The very idea of public property is collectivist, and it leads to conflicts like this. A group of gay guys want to parade and show off their immorality (yet without using violence.) Christian parents rightly don't want their kids exposed to such filth. Now what? Well, in the end, government makes a decision, uses violence to defend its position, and somebody loses out (and based on society's track record, its unlikely to be the perverts.) Privatizing all property and eliminating discrimination laws prevents a need for a "law" or a one size fits all solution. I certainly wouldn't allow gay pride parades and streaking on my property. I wouldn't think much of any Christian who did. And I wouldn't think much of any parent who decided they would expose their children to that. But its not my decision to make for someone else. God will ultimately deal with anyone who leads their children astray.
2. Preaching the gospel. This is more important than point #1. Its no good for people to have Christian morals if they do not believe the gospel. The Pharisees had the right morals, and Jesus used harsher words to describe them than he did to describe prostitutes. Jesus told the prostitutes to repent, but did he advocate using government force to punish them? No. And again, he saved his harshest words for the self-righteous Pharisees.
3. If necessary, shunning. If people want to continue to expose their perversity to children, have nothing to do with them and encourage others to do likewise.
As disgusting as it is, no I don't think exposing one's genitals in the presence of children is just cause to lock them up, as immoral as it is. It isn't actually a physical threat. Spiritual threats can be avoided other ways.
