A fair number of postings on this board refer to real life cases of abduction, rape and murder of children. Although these contributions include sympathetic (nay sometimes sanctimonious) comments, something doesn't quite ring true.

Yes.

This may be an unworthy thought but could it be that a fair number of people here actually get off on this sort of stuff?

It's a valid question.

Is it possible that this keen interest indicates that the fantasy life of many here involves the abduction and violation of a child?

I don't think the answer is that simple. We've seen Furbydad talk with the ghost of a dead girl, and some others don't seem far behind. I really wonder what's going on here.

Like Casey i stopped reading those threads, they are pointless and most of the time the replies are abdurd, like one about the importance of filling an adult killer's canteen.
