Man in Court Over Simpsons Porn

Ever get the urge to look at pornographic drawings of famous cartoon children? Neither do I, but 28-year-old Kurt James Milner did, and that's what got him registered as a sex offender. Police received a tip about the pornographic material and eventually found images featuring child characters from The Simpsons and The Powerpuff Girls on Milner's computer. Back in 2008, a Supreme Court judge in Australia ruled that cartoons in which child characters engage in sexual acts is child pornography. Milner said he downloaded the images to show them to his friend 'because he believed they were funny.' Guess it's not so funny now.

    At this point I'm picturing Nelson Muntz popping up in the courtroom, shouting HAH-Ha! at the judge, and then running off. (And just to be clear, it's not a naked Nelson Muntz).

    Oh , and I must point out how brilliant the Queensland police are:

    but a year later police forensic experts recovered 64 images of cartoon child exploitation material in the machine’s recycle bin.

    The fool ! He should have known that cartoon characters don't recycle ! You have to use *the Dip* !

    My mother has photos of me when I was a child playing almost naked, aged 3. Will my mother get arrested?

    Well, she will now, big mouth.
