Anexdotal & qualitative evidence is absolutely preferable to no evidence. And there are areas where quantitative evidence is impossible to gather and/or, in individual cases, inapplicable.

I assummed from context that your conclusion was that killing a pedo isn’t the answer. Sorry if the assumption was wrong but I think it’s reasonable. In that case, the fact that you didn’t even bother to provide analysis for that conclusion is NOT A POSITIVE. You can’t assert something, then when asked for data to back it up say ‘I didn’t make a proper argument do I don’t need data’.

My suggestion in the first place was: if you cannnot get a danger to children to seek help and/or can’t get them locked up a bullet can very well and often be a justifiable course of action. I think you assummed I was drawing a universal moral prescription of how to deal with all cases and I see how, but I wasn’t.

All I’m saying is that in many cases, a bullet for those who aren’t willing to rehab is a valid way out, and there are a lot of those people.

Sorry for the lengthy ass comment, didn’t see a way to shorten what I said while keepin the substance. When I have time I’d rather avoid empty snide quips like those you’ve been making
