Socially marginalised groups with low baselines for violence (women, gays, preteens) have demonstrated a capacity for exceptional violence in direct antagonism to their marginalisation or marginalizers (suffragettes, rioters, over 50 school shooters were preteens).
Other marginalised groups that include fighting age heterosexual men (Black, Islam, Incel) have even formed violent organizations, or carried out acts of political terrorism.

It is easy to identify social marginalisation as a factor in precipitating political violence and rebellions, for example, and only an idiot would argue the two things aren't related in some way. But it's a lot harder to locate examples of actual violent MAPs or pedophiles, perhaps because the group is not yet politically self-aware. Without self awareness there can be no struggle.
Statistically, MAPs make up a considerable portion of society, some say around 20% of males when properly accounting for some heterosexual men's preference for adolescent girls.

Yet, despite the existence of a few examples (e.g. the Dunblane massacre, shootings of cops and vigilantes) little is said about acts of "pedophile" violence, because by and large "pedophiles" are a humble and meek target that does not lash out in rage.

For me, it is both the lack of political self awareness/communal organization, and ashamed meekness of minor attracted men that spares us multiple acts of "pedophile" violence. In the future, we should expect to see more acts of radical violence, and properly forumate ways of responding to it as a community.

Re: Could 'pedophile violence' become a problem?
This reminds me of that characterization of the Holocaust that Jews had gone "like sheep to the slaughter."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Like_shee ... _slaughter"Like sheep to the slaughter" (Hebrew: כצאן לטבח) is a phrase that refers to the idea that Jews went passively to their deaths during the Holocaust. It derives from a similar phrase in the Hebrew Bible that favorably depicts martyrdom in both the Jewish and Christian religious traditions. Opposition to the phrase became associated with Jewish nationalism due to its use in Josippon and by Jewish self-defense groups after the 1903 Kishinev pogrom. During the Holocaust, Abba Kovner and other Jewish resistance leaders used the phrase to exhort Jews to fight back.
