[Hide] (49.3KB, 640x430) Reverse I used to agree with the idea that possession should not be illegal, but creation and distribution should be. But nowadays, I've come to seriously disagree with that conclusion. There's a reason why we arrest people who buy and take illicit substances. A demand ultimately leads to supply. People being able to possess child pornography, normalizes the creation and distribution of it, as the demand grows because now there would be many pedophiles who were unrestrained by law, trying to get their paws on child pornography. This would give an offender MORE motivation to harm children. This would make the harming of children MORE normalized. There's no such thing as staged child pornography as opposed to staged rape pornography or any other taboo erotica. Child pornography is a true representation of what is happening, it is so authentic, that i believe it WOULD motivate a person who already has the desire to harm a child, giving him the mentality of "Well, he did it, so can I!". To clarify, I do not think loli should be illegal because no children are harmed, and it's simply not real. You have to have preexisting desire and plans to do these things to be genuinely influenced by loli. Loli is obviously a work of fiction, and unrealistic at best, so any influence that loli may have, contrary to popular belief, serves merely as a "tipping point" at its greatest. Also, when these children grow up, these children molested, they'd have a risk of encountering footage of their most traumatic moments on the internet again, as it'd be distributed at a higher rate. Even with child pornography completely illegal, this happens way too often.
Lastly, I'd like to say that pedophilia itself isn't immoral. It's taking advantage of a person who isn't mentally developed enough to make rational decisions. Pedophiles should have ways to relieve their sexuality in a way that doesn't harm others. Just like gays they can't change themselves. But they do have the choice not to harm a child.
