Quote: It also covers obscene images of minors including ones in a "drawing, cartoon, sculpture, or painting." (The language warns that it is not necessary "that the minor depicted actually exist.")
Very cute, since when did it become a crime to exercise concepts and ideas in drawings, cartoons, sculpture, or paintings? How does anyone know the age of a fictional character depicted in any of the aforementioned media?
I'm all for prosecuting anyone that actually victimizes anyone else in a tangible way. Especially when children are the victims. But in what way are fictional creations victimizing anyone?
This is becoming remarkably like the Orwellian thought police. While I have no interest in children as the recipients of sexual or violent actions, I refuse to see expression of thoughts or concepts as criminal action. - Posted by: Technocrat@...
