Yes, I'm horrified again. I guess I'm also naïve because I had no idea pedophiles used symbols to identify themselves to each other. One would think they're ashamed of their unnatural proclivity and would try to keep it a secret. Who would have guessed that there is a community of pedophiles?
I'm posting this with two pages of the FBI document in hopes that parents and non-parents alike will see these pictures and take note.
If you see someone around children with any of these symbols, get the children and yourself away as quickly as you can. If you see any of these symbols on a website or in an email on your child's account, take action immediately.
Protect the children.

The Pedophile's Secret Codeby Bonnie Goldstein
Posted Monday, Dec. 3, 2007, at 4:07 PM ETEvery subculture speaks its own dialect, and pedophiles are no exception. Hence the FBI's January 2007 "intelligence bulletin" on "symbols and logos used by pedophiles to identify sexual preferences." The document, was prepared and distributed to FBI divisions and field offices earlier this year by the Cyber Division's Innocent Images National Initiative. These are the G-men and -women who work on cases involving child exploitation and sexual abuse.
Did you know that "boylovers" make their presence known with a "small blue spiral-shaped triangle surrounded by a larger triangle"? The larger triangle signifies an adult male; the smaller triangle, a boy. If the boylover wishes to emphasize the smallness of the boys he covets, then he uses the "little boy lover" logo, which is more rounded and thinner than the boylover logo, apparently to "resemble a scribbling by a young child." Males or females whose taste runs to young girls identify themselves with a logo showing one heart inside a larger heart, while "non-preferential gender child abusers" indicate their enthusiasms with a butterfly logo made up of two large hearts and two smaller hearts. These logos are sometimes incorporated into jewelry or even stamped onto coins.
Included with the intelligence bulletin is a customer-satisfaction survey aimed at measuring how helpful the report was—not to pedophiles but to law enforcement professionals. Recipients are asked to "[p]lease take a moment to complete this survey and help evaluate the quality and value of FBI products." Was the report "delivered within established deadlines"? Did it identify "new information associated with pending matters"? Respondents are asked to indicate their opinion by circling a number (1 = Strongly Disagree; 5 = Strongly Agree). The inapplicability of Total Quality Management to this particular topic is underlined when respondents are asked whether the report "is reliable (i.e., sources well documented and reputable)." Well-documented, yes. But reputable? As a general rule, you can't find information of this nature in a reputable source. The report's footnotes to online sources (see Page 6 of the original article) bear this out.

Great post! It is a little disturbing they feel the need to 'identify' with each other.
Wow, cant believe that people would really take crap like this seriously. Your telling me that all those little kids who wear clothing with those symbols on them are wanting to sleep around with same sex?
Maybe, just maybe, MOST PEOPLE WEAR THOSE SYMBOLS BECOUSE THEY LOOK COOL.
Only a seriously fucked up idiot would beleive this crap.
You know you are living in a police state, when a government bureau with police powers starts taking community symbols, and producing propaganda like this.
I remember when this came out, and the initial reaction.
Given that it was never concealed that we have a number of official symbols, and these are outwardly displayed for the world to see, it is ludicrous to call these a "secret".
They were designed and chosen to be a public icon to identify us. Very much like a crest or flag.
It is typical for any liberation movement, to have a unique symbol to identify it, and it's unity.
The FBI "report" is more like a bad joke, in poor taste. And clueless at best. They enjoy fear mongering, just like much of the media.
