Ever known a child who has been molested? The worst thing that can happen to a child. It seems to me they are wanting to protect children from the many awful things that happen every day. I don't think anyone is saying that a person who creates questionable images is a pedophile, but if a pedophile creates those type of images, they are just fueling their screwed up hormones. I haven't made up my mind how I feel about this legislation yet, but I can see why people would like to combat child pornography. I am glad they are concerned about this type of thing. I just hope that they will look at it with a neutral mind and listen to the facts and issues at hand before making up their minds. No one likes to have their artwork censored, but it has always been an issue for those that create vs. those who view/listen/experience the artwork. Many times an artist creates something with one thing in mind while those that see it will take it completely different from the intended message. I don't know where the line should be drawn, but I think it is an issue that should be discussed rationally instead of both sides trying to go to extremes.
