Re: 'Making' indecent photograph of a child

Does possession video of the Twin Towers explosion imply support for terrorists ? It all depends on who you are. If you're a Muslim suspected to be in contact with members of a "terrorist" organization, it may be enough to send you to prison in some of our so-called "western liberal democracies". Same with pedophiles. Pictures that may be innocent enough in the hands of the average Joe may very well become some horrifying child porn if possessed by a pedophile. Remember, there is no real victims in viewing CP. So, it means the only crime in such a case is thought crime. Therefore, obviously the crime depends on one's thoughts, not on the material itself. Isn't the use of minor actors in films and TV series exploitation? As long as there is more money to be made from the films than from prosecutions and related abuse industry, it is not ;) Why is it illegal for a minor to film himself with his own camera? Because it isn't about the kids welfare. Just like with the war on drugs, any law threatening a large proportion of the youth works perfectly well to maintain some unfair social order while parading as virtuous protectors of the population.
