That is not at all what he's saying.
He's saying that we shouldn't tar and feather people that haven't done anything bad. I agree with him on this and have posted about it before. No one chooses what or who they're attracted to. Someone that is attracted to children without ever acting on it has to live one of the most miserable existences on Earth. You will never have a normal life with a wife and kids. You know that if your secret ever gets out, even if you've never acted on it, every single person you've ever interacted with will think you are the most disgusting person to ever walk the Earth and they'll want you dead.
Obviously, anyone that acts on it should be fucking hanged but it is an area with so much grey, it's not as black and white as everyone here seems to think and anyone that refuses to see the nuance is lacking in the brain department.
