yeah, put razors tightly around his flaccid penis, and let naked kids dance before him!
Yeah, I agree with that. Yeah, children pornography is just plain wrong, but acting like a "lynch mob" as the OP put it correctly, we do not differ from the medieval witch hunt times.
Do you know if he served the prison sentence because of the naked children images OR for actually acting out pedophilia (as in: intercourse or other lewd activities with a minor)??
That's constructive!
Yes they may be trying, But I wouldn't like them to test whether their therapy/punishment is successful in my neighbourhood
i'm already a bit of a wimp about being broken into etc.
and i know these people would be around even if i didn't know about it but knowing about it is worse because then i worry about it.
i'm all for saying give them a chance, we can't prove it's them. but every time it's happened it's been before 11pm (their curfew time) and they've been walking up the road to where the hostel is. also when the police found out where we lived and put this together with people standing at our windows etc they took us a lot more seriously.
So, where do you think they will go? You've ignored the main point of what I said - they've had thier punishment, are you just expecting them to disappear?
how wasn't it? you haven't answered his question.
Are you a bit simple?
It scares me that people like you are allowed to vote.
About as constructive as your post, I agree. I notice you chose to engage with my flip comment rather than my subsequent more involved comments.
How constructive of you.
So who's neighbourhood would you do it then?
The news article said that he had emailed an image to someone who was subsequently investigated, and it was traced back to him. He had category 1,2,3 and 4 images on his PC, and was convicted of possesing the material. There were no charges of child abuse.
It's people like Sarah who are the bigger problem, with attitudes like hers you stir trouble.
he's looking at pictures of an abuse crime comitted and enjoying it, therefore he supported the site's runners
Looking at images of child sex abuse is a tough one- it does cause a lot of damage. Even if you haven't created the images yourself by abusing a child, you have caused a child to be abused by looking at the images.
It doesn't matter if you raped and abused the child, or whether another man has, the child has still been raped and abused.
I agree though that it doesn't necessarily follow that any person who looks at child sex abuse images would abuse a child themselves- most wouldn't. It's very easy to find images of child sex abuse on the internet- just type certain key words in Limewire and your computer will find thousands of images- and sometimes curiosity will get the better of people. But for someone to be prosecuted and jailed there will be a large collection of images, collected over many months and years, and so the person collecting that does pose a risk.
It isn't as easy as saying that these men are evil- some men probably would hurt a child themselves, but many more wouldn't. Some men just get sucked into it and get addicted to the risk or the taboo of it all. For every person who downloads these images there will be a different reason behind it.
Interestingly most child sex abuse images involve pubescent children, rather than babies and toddlers. In a society which prizes youth as a major sexual attraction, of course some people will start looking at pubescent girls and liking what they see.
You have the Amber Alert as well for missing children don't you (maybe not in every state... I'm not sure), we found the website once whiler esearching for school, and had a good look - it all seems a good idea tbh.
