Innocent/non offending people killed or attacked

  • In 2000 in the UK, families fled from paedophile protests. Man beaten unconscious, elderly man dies from heart attack. Elsewhere in the country, innocent people have been targeted and a suspected paedophile is reported to have killed himself after a vigilante attack on his home left him in fear of his life.[1]
  • In 2003 in the Netherlands, several organizations offered money to kill pedophiles on IBLD. "Dutch websites that offer up to $500 for the IBLD meeting details, $200 for every pedo that gets killed on IBLD and other fine suggestions such as putting a rubber tire around the neck of a pedo and setting it on fire[.]" (find archived copies, links are dead) [2]

Harassment/not death

  • In 2000 in the UK, a paediatrician was driven out of her home by vigalantes who supposedly confused her title of paediatrician with the word "paedophile". Five other families who were wrongly identified as harbouring sex offenders were forced to flee their homes in the Paulsgrove estate in Portsmouth as violence flared earlier this month. [8]
  • UK. PROTESTERS chanting ‘paedos out', onlookers were frightened by the mob.[9]
  • In 2015 in Australia, a father taking a selfie with a Darth Vader display at Target talked to some children to let them know what he was taking a selfie to send to his own children. The mother of the children then photographed the man and posted his face online, calling him a creep and causing him to receive death threats. The post calling him a creep was reshared thousands of times before the father was finally able to clear his name.[10]
