QUOTE The Edmonton Journal reports that a local man has been arrested for attempting to import 15 books containing sexually explicit manga featuring adults having sex with children, including depictions of "tied-up children and infants in diapers." When police searched the man's house they found 78 more books of similar pornographic nature. The man has been charged with importation of child pornography.

The Edmonton Journal writes, "[the Internet Child Exploitation team in Edmonton] searched a house on Edmonton's south side on Feb. 10 and found 78 books containing thousands of pages of explicit pictures, commonly known as anime.... anime has been given a black eye from a perverted offshoot of the industry called Hentae[sic], where cartoon characters are bound and raped."

Any thoughts in relation to this? Is it justified to arrest him on the possession of lolimanga?

Im not sure myself

On the one hand i think that since its not real and the person can still distinuish real from fiction than its just fine, but on the other hand what if he slips up? You dont want that to happen to any child.
 
I agree with you TNT, its up to me what he reads, its not hurting anyone, and no one was harmed iun the making of it (i think is a gross thing to look at but i can respect the man freedom), but as you said if he is obsessed with it then a problem could arrise, how you determine if there is a problem is anyones guess..

If your thinking about kiddy porn at all, you have something seriously wrong with you.
 
Is there? The fancy for kids doesnt just come from a desicion, (I hope, because otherwise I would have to agree with you) I assume its pretty much the same as with any other fetish. Be it with breasts, feet or farts, there is apperently something in certain humans that turns them on when thinking about it. Something in the subconcious or maybe its a mutation in the brain like (hope I dont offend anyone with this, it is not meant to offend) with gay feelings.

Thinking isnt bad (or maybe it is, but thats a different discussion), its acting on thoughts that are "wrong."
You're not going to tell me you never thought of ramming that idiot in the car in front of you off the road? Or maybe you have thought of just kicking those slow kids aside because you are in a hurry to catch the train.
 
I was going to say, if you get those feelings you ignore them you don't go ordering anime kiddy porn but from your example QUOTE You're not going to tell me you never thought of ramming that idiot in the car in front of you off the road? Or maybe you have thought of just kicking those slow kids aside because you are in a hurry to catch the train. I can understand where your coming from, I'll admit that I've had thoughts like that but you vent it out somewhere like GTA3, never act it out in real life
But then you gotta argue where to drawing the line on these things. Any thought on kiddy porn is disgusting

Children Porn....ewww...icky, fact they rushed in and did that....seriously wrong. Allow me to share the song lyrics to a NOFX song that's pretty relevant

Vanilla Sex
Don't ever take away from me my pornography
We obviously don't agree on what's obscene
I have the right to choose what I
Want to see and read

Don't try to take away from me
My right to privacy what I
Do is no one's business but me

So stay in your missionary position
I hope that you get bored to death
There's no way I'm going thru life
Having vanilla sex

The government's trying to get in
Your bedroom you better lock your
Door and close your shades because
There could be someone watching you today

Why do you try to make things illegal
Why do we have to be 21
Are you afraid that people are having
Too much fun
Why do you care what I do in my bedroom
Why do you want to know how I screw
It seems to me you've got nothing better
To do.
 
good call on the nofx lyrics

my opinion is kinda' split on this subject.. in one hand, the fact that it's manga and not real pictures, in my opinion, makes a huge difference. it doesn't involve real kids, so it won't create the underground business of pedophile business like selling children and stuff like that. idk, it might be comparable to venting out in GTA.. on the other hand, i still seriously dislike pedophilia so i'm not so sure about if i'd rather see it allowed or not.

my biggest doubt is: would that manga help him control his need for pedophilia or would it encourage him to up the ante and get serious? if i knew the answer to this i could easily deside what to say about this.. after thinking a little about it, maybe it really is a good way for him to control is urges.

nice topic!

Exactly, you vent it in GTA, what if that guy vents it with comics?
huh.gif
He isnt hurting you, or the three year old kid next door by reading them.

I agree with you that kiddy porn is disgusting, but thats a personal opinion. I think that the french language should be banned and all books destroyed since I hate that language. I also think that the guys who translate the english tv scripts into dutch should go back to school since they make horribly obvious mistakes.

Overconcerned parents think that GTA is the most horrendous thing ever created since Carmageddon and should not be sold. Some Katholics think pokemon is the devilsbreed and should be banned from stores.

I think that maybe we should be a little more tolerant despite that we all lose our lunch just thinking about it. I was thinking that maybe we should send people like that to the psychiatrist, let him turn the mind of that guy inside out and judge wether or not he has a big chance of losing touch with reality...
 
There's nothing wrong with him!

Listen, when I was little, I would take my barbie dolls behind the kitchen into a little cupboard and make them have sex. I would even make little barbie sounds. I was like eight years old, and I enjoyed it. Okay, I don't enjoy it anymore, but it was fun. I'm sure this guy feels the same way.
 
sasha, that's kinda' different from a grown up man wanting to have sex with children.. it's something completely unrelated and definitely disgusting.

When I said venting I meant going to pick up playboy or something, not kiddy porn even of the anime/manga kind to satisfy you. :/ I'm not defending the guy, I still think that is sick

When you vent off to something, you generally vent off on to something that won't harm others. I think that this can be applied to lollicon, even though as a society we generally look down upon it, we cannot judge other cultures and other peoples tastes based on our own backgrounds. There will obviously be differences. That being said the age of consent for sex in japan is somewhere around 14, which is 2 years younger than in England as far as I am aware.

I'm not saying kiddy porn should be allowed, but we're talking about drawings, they aren't exploiting nor damaging anyone. A child was not used as a basis for drawing it, so it should be allowed. Even if the content is very questionable.

it depends on how you define wrong. in my opinion, this guy definitely has some issues.

anyway, arent barbie dolls all girls? or were there guys in barbie dolls. (sorry for my ignorance)
 
Yeah, there were Ken dolls.

True, now that I think about it, child molestering is a bit... Bad. I don't know how to put it. Can anyone help me out?
 
Ken and Barbie broke up a few years ago.

@ Sasha its a bit disgusting?

Yeah, that's a good way to put it.

And the Bratz dolls were sued and gotten rid of. My best friends father works for Mattel and she told me that they were sued. Gabi (my best friend - we call her Barbie Girl) said the guy who made the Bratz dolls for Mattel secretly sold them to another company, and Mattel could get in trouble for "copying" the other companies' idea. Fortunately, Mattel found out, and took the guy straight to court and the guy had nothing to say for himself. Eventually, they won the case, and the Bratz dolls are no more.

Now there's just Barbie left to get rid of

Ugh, thank god. I couldn't stand those commercials.

Yeah. And the MyScene dolls are disgusting. If Barbie is so popular, why do we need to buy her friends?
