    Pedophiles should just kill themselves before killing cool projects like this.

    Or raping kids I guess.

    Pedophiles are a minority of the child rapers, so that's a stupid statement.

    Just read the DSM-V before commenting such bullshit.

    There's a clause in that. Learn english before responding to comments written in English.

    Oh, I'm so sorry, I just reread it and realized I misunderstood what you said.

    I noticed that I isolated the first part of your comment and overlooked the subordinating conditional clause below it, which led me to commit a straw man fallacy driven by a selection bias.

    That said, I have to point out that your initial statement still relied on a composition and a generalization fallacy —even though you didn't explicitly claim that all pedophiles are offenders— by stating in a blanket way that all pedophiles should kill themselves due to the actions of a minority of them.

    I think this mutual oversight was the root of the misunderstanding, and again, I apologize for my part in it.

    I hope this helps both of us have better interactions in the future.
