Paedophiles often groom victims, parents and situations to make their task easier and to feel out perspective opportunities. This is well documented behaviour. They often are friends, family members or close associates of the victim who build up levels of trust or dependence in order that they may guilt and obligation on their victim. For kids guilt and obligations to people they love are respect are highly motivating factors.
Really? Well British paedophiles are obviously much much different to American paedophiles. A great amount of the cases I've ever seen here are males (or females) who abduct kids. So it's obviously down to differing points of reference. Even so, those actions and mannerisms can also be acted out by someone who actually does want to be friendly. If I approach a girl in a bar and talk to her, am I an automatic shady rapist based on the fact that rapists use the same technique?

This so so far from fact that I can't believe you typed it. Although that does happen, generally it is a paedophile with additional mental problems that resorts to kidnapping and murder.
See above.

Paedophiles often stalk children for years, repeating offences over long periods of time. You are generalizing WAY too much. MJ is also accused of repeated offences on multiple victims.
Personally, I've not hear many cases of paedophilia where the assailant stalks his prey for a number of years. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, it does, just doesn't seem to be as common here as it apparantly is there.

Is it so important to you to feel as though you have "spanked" someone in a debate? I have seen you make that comment in different threads. What's worse is often you make that statement and it isn't true. Make your point and move one, I'm sure if someone sees that you have "spanked" someone else they will make a comment (as they often do). Save the victory dances for other venues, it is embarrassing to see here and often belittles any good point you have previously made.
No, it's a phrase. Just like when someone says "I win". It's just my way of making semi-comidic jibes at people, all in fun. People seem to not be able to take it as a joke, like most things on this site. You all seem to think that once a debate gets even slightly higher than room temperature and you're losing footing, that I am all of a sudden some megalomaniacal tyrant bent on forum domination. It's really really petty. Purely because I get along real well will many other combustible personalities on this site, coincidentally they know that I respect their opinion regardless of how fiercly I debate. Picking down what I'm putting up? Don't talk to me of embarassment, I don't really think you're one to talk about that with regards me/you....and you know what I'm refering to. But this is all off topic. As soon as people get past their own insecurities and realise that I back up my arrogance and I joke alot with it, we can move on.

Actually, whether you are aware of it or not, you do insult people. Snide remarks and jokes at the expense of others are insults. We all resort to insults at one point or another, be mature enough to realize that you do the same.
To insult, someone has to be insulted, correct? You're all just far too easily insulted, by now most people here are fully aware of how I conduct myself in debate and they know that I attack the debate not the person. If you choose to misinterpret that then it really is your own problem.
To be honest I find it kind of ironic, I make jokes and people get their tampons in a twist. PVS makes a comedic insult toward me and gets "You kill me dude".
Hypocricy isn't a river in Egypt.
