Quote - I must admit the title got me to read this thread...and I haven't followed any of links...but "children being raped by animals" seems to be some of the content in question and that really does cross the line...that isn't art. And I am not bringing up the "what is art" conversation.....

I agree. Bekkah thanks for not bringing up the whole "what is art" arguement, by mentioning it in the first place though. :lol:
This is not directed at you Bekkah, but speaking of slippery slopes and unintended consequences though.
This arguement that this is just someone else trying to force their morality on others is IMHO nothing more than an attempt at saying anything should go. When clearly no, anything should not go.
Our society has every right to say what is acceptable and what is not acceptable behaviour by it's members. Otherwise we have nothing but anarchy and chaos.
This individual clearly chose to ignore the law wich prohibits possession of such materials, and they got dinged for it.
"I didn't know" otherwise known as what I call the "ignorant defense" is not a legal defense for breaking the law. It never has been. And it shouldn't be in this case either.
