...unless it's accompanied by an article from a reputable news source,
in which case the discussion shall be limited to the scope of the article. Legz, believe me, I've read the rules a time or six. :thumbsup:
Just my 2 cents from the peanut gallery. But I don't see anything wrong with this article being posted. It is, as you say, a news article and the discussion is a responsible one.
This thread (also from yesterday), on the other hand, was also an article posted in a completely responsible manner, but the discussion which followed suggests to me that more than a few people on this board might possess child pornography, or at least have no problem with illegal adult/child sexual encounters. In fact, they're glorifying it. And that, I'm pretty sure, is against the board rules.
These adult female/male child threads pop up here every few months. And whenever they do, it's always the same thing: a big jerk-off session among certain members (often the same people over & over). Only after the last one had been open for months(?) and I reported it, was it eventually closed, even though a mod had posted in the thread too.
This is usually a fun board. And you can't take anything on here (or on any board) too seriously. But I'm in a particularly foul mood today (better than even chance that someone will either get smacked or fired today), so my patience with obvious dumb shit isn't all that long right now.
But until you guys & gals on the Mod Squad start handing out infractions and/or bans to these numbskulls, it seems to me that right now, FreeOnes is a good place for female child molesters to come, hang out
and be made welcome by more than a few of the
fantasy land members here. And of course, the next step (down) from there would be male child molesters showing up and finding sympathetic ears (cause you know,
"sure, she was only 12, but she had the body of a 15 year old!"). At that point, I would want no connection to this site. I really don't need some FBI or Interpol agent having my IP address on his desk as he looks over the member list here.
In closing, legal is legal and illegal is illegal - plain & simple. Child porn is illegal. Adult/child sex is illegal. People who like, support or participate in either should die the most miserable deaths, IMO.
Sorry for the rant. Sorry that something else is making me more pissy than usual. But I implore FreeOnes to put an end to this bullshit, since the participants obviously don't have the sense that God gave a goose.
