If law enforcement actually performs necessary duties those duties should take priority over something like this. The fact that this kind of thing gets taken seriously makes me think that perhaps too many officers are doing way too little. Save us all some money and lay off unnecessary officers if this is all they have to do!
The fact that sexualized pictures of "children" (anyone under 18 qualifies in federal child porn statues) are rampant and often consensual should somehow be reflected in the laws. Instead, low-level sex offenses are becoming the low-level drug offenses of this century: Something we overreact to in a charade of concern and, in the process, turn decent people into criminals.
COMMENT ONE: The dad is a moron. He should have taken the cellphone to the police. The minute he downloaded the content, he became a contributor of child porn. What an idiot.
REPLY: As soon as he downloaded the content he became a contributor of child porn? I'm not so sure about that. Case in point: just because you left a comment here doesn't mean you contributed to the conversation.
