Personnally i believe anyone who dabbles, be it just looking at pictures that are indecent or taking the abuse to a higher level - thay all should be punished severely . How many times do we hear that someone was only looking at pictures .
As far as im concerned peadophiles always go up the scale never down.
We as parents have to be allowed to protect our children because as it stands the law is letting our children down by giving perverts lenient sentances. :-5

Like you, P.O.F, I hate pedophilia! Photos of children in these situations are exploitive, deeply disturbing, abusive and rightly criminal!
But, I'm troubled by the recent tendency to go overboard and make drawings of children in similar situations criminal. A drawing is an extention of a thought...nothing more. From their website:
"Free Speech Coalition v. Reno challenges the constitutionality of the Child Pornography Prevention Act of 1996, which outlaws images that appear to be minors, even if they are not, or if they "convey the impression...of a minor engaged in sexually explicit activity." In other words, images of persons who appear to be minors engaged in sexual activity, even if no minor was in fact involved in anything of a sexual nature, are now forbidden. There are no exceptions, even for works with artistic, historical, educational, or scientific value. There is an affirmative defense, but only for material produced with an identifiable adult which does not "convey the impression" that a minor is involved."
Are we to say that THOUGHTS are criminal acts? We've all seen comic books/animations of violent and criminal actions....those aren't illegal. As I said, I'm troubled. It's impossible to defend pedophiles, but should the government be crossing that line between fantasy and reality in peoples' heads?
