A surprising number of child sex abusers appear to be Trekkies. Trying to figure out what that means, however, shows how little we really know about pedophiles
JONATHON GATEHOUSE | May 26, 2005

The first thing detectives from the Toronto police sex crimes unit saw when they entered Roderick Cowan's apartment was an autographed picture of William Shatner. Along with the photos on the computer of Scott Faichnie, also busted for possessing child porn, they found a snapshot of the pediatric nurse and Boy Scout leader wearing a dress "Federation" uniform. Another suspect had a TV remote control shaped like a phaser. Yet another had a Star Trek credit card in his wallet. One was using "Picard" as his screen name. In the 3 1/2 years since police in Canada's biggest city established a special unit to tackle child pornography, investigators have been through so many dwellings packed with sci-fi books, DVDs, toys and collectibles like Klingon swords and sashes that it's become a dark squadroom joke. "We always say there are two types of pedophiles: Star Trek and Star Wars," says Det. Ian Lamond, the unit's second-in-command. "But it's mostly Star Trek."

The LA Times recently ran a story about the Child Exploitation Section of the Toronto Sex Crimes Unit, which contained a mind-boggling statistic: of the more than 100 offenders the unit has arrested over the last four years, "all but one" has been "a hard-core Trekkie."



for reals, shit is creepy

1. 'reaganite America' includes more than "being fucking capitalist," do your best to follow data's lead and try to not be so autistic about everything.

2. you are correct in that i did not read your essay from stardestroyer.net

1. Hmm, yes, there were certainly social elements of Reaganite America that were reproduced in TNG... such as Christianity (never mentioned), and conservative family values (prostitution is legalized).

2. Do so, it clearly outlines the socialist elements of Star Trek, including: absence of hard currency, lack of private property, lack of corporations, reliance on public transport, reliance on government manufacturers, the highest echelons of federation society are all politicians/military officers/scientists without any rich dudes, etc.

most fascism is pretty clearly anti-capitalist as well so a post-scarcity society condemning greed in favor for the greater community ain't inherently socialist

fascism is mostly associated with nazis and the axis of world war 2, which was deeply and intrinsically capitalists

the problem with assigning generalizations to fascism is there isn't a real definition of the word. it's a vague and ominous word that strikes terror into the hearts of liberals and aside from that it really holds no meaning.

also star trek is some faggot shit for faggots

communists are supposed to hate fascism nazbro



i don't think that's true, beebs. fascism is nationalism, combined with socialism - it's not really that different from the 'communism' that has historically existed, and still technically does.

Sorry, I didn't mean you. I meant the pretend theists who spew nonsense as a result of any religion-oriented post I make.

Also, Nazbro, the Nazis and Imperial Japan were decidedly not capitalist and I honestly expected more from you. Hitler was the leader of the National Socialist German Worker's Party and railed against capitalism at length. He believed in consolidating economic strength in the state for the benefit of national values.

the nazi system was more capitalist than socialist but it was a hybrid, it was the sort of war-economy state that American socialists were pining for after ww1 and actually got after ww2

the official excuse for getting rid of them was "drugs" but the real reason was the other major high school at the time got burned down so ours was at twice maximum capacity and they needed more room in the halls
