UK Proposes Banning Computer Generated Abuse

peterprior writes "The UK Justice Minister is planning to outlaw computer generated images and drawings of child sex abuse. While photographs and videos of child sex abuse are already illegal, undoubtedly to protect children from being exploited by these acts, what children will be protected by this new law? If there is no actual child involved is the law merely protecting against the possibility of offenders committing future crimes against real children?"

That's it!

Any further goatse, 2 girls 1 cup, or tubgirl links will result in the poster being modded -1 Troll and reported to the UK computer police.

First they came for the pedophiles, and I did not speak out - because I was not a pedophile. Then they came for the anal stretchers, and I did not speak out - because I was not Goatse. Then they came for the girls who like to share cups of feces, and I did not speak out - because I was not a girl with a friend with a cup. Then they came for me - and there was no one left to speak for me.

I think we should dismantle every buildiing with naked babies with naked babies perched on top of massive, rock-hard shafts. So what if they're just statuary on the top of columns of every major cathedral in every Christian nation? That'll serve those awful pedophile priests right!

Computer generate abuse?

While (true)
{
      me.bitchSlap(wife)
}

before anyone one says anything,
I know this wont compile.
Cause wife is null.

if you think that wife implies you,
you're in for a great surprise in your life.
especially when it comes to the
wife.sex()
function

Think of the pixels!

Won't someone think of the pixels?

Re:logical progression

[sakdoctor]

The logical progression is of course to ban children. If we don't have any children, then they can't possibly be abused and will therefore be safe.

Is this good logic? Can I have a job as a politician yet?

Please think of the children!

[naich]

On second thoughts - don't. It's illegal now.

tetris? you mean that game where innocent little blocks are being blasted and disintegrated for the sole act of filling a complete horizontal line?!

You are truly heartless for not condoning something like that.

Why, this CGI is gateway porno!

Yeah, it commonly leads to Perl, PHP and in the worst cases Ruby on Rails.

Good thing all of my pictures are computer generated images of children being stabbed. Sex may be horrible but people are cool with violence.

Desperately needed in Toontown

[Fastolfe]

Toon child porn is a very real problem that affects residents of Toontown every day. Local ordinances only go so far. So long as there are no laws against toon child porn outside of Toontown, the demand exists and toon children continue to be exploited. Toon children are regularly taken across municipal lines and blatantly exploited in dark basements to produce these images. It's about time we did something about this and I applaud this ban.

You imprisoned an innocent child inside your stomach for 18 months then forced it backwards through your genitals for your own sick amusement?
