Precursor Games Founder Arrested For Child Porn

[likalaruku]

Legit kiddie porn this time, or another lolicon manga collector?

Keep in mind accidental viewing doesn't count.

It can do, I remember reading about a case where someone was arrested and charged after police had dug out a very poor quality cached thumbnail from the depths of their computer. Luckily for the defendant the jury had some common sense and dismissed the case, another jury might have convicted them.

damn, he only needs to start eating those babies and he will be on par with EA.

ROFL. I love this comment, thanks.

Let me just regain my composure. I declare your post to be the Post of the Year.

Did the children consent?[yes I know that they don't have the knowledge needed ect ect but I'm still curious on if they were willing]
And how old are we speaking, toddlers or young teens?
These things will affect my judgment but so far it's not looking good for him.

Absolutely none of this matters or should affect your opinion, just FYI.

Yeah I'm with you on that one. The way some people are trying to justify and defend something like this completely sickens me.
And yeah, a drawing of it is just as disgusting...

Are we talking about actual child porn or Lolicon because there is a difference [one uses real children the other drawing/cartoons] depending on the answer my opinion will change.

Wasn't cartoons ruled to not be child porn because, being a drawing, there is no child being exploited?

Not in every country there are still many countries which consider Lolicon child porn.

He lives in Canada, which still deems lolicon (and most hentai) illegal.

apparently its fashionable and cool to find a way to defend pedophiles these days

Better than throwing them under the bus before they are convicted.

Also being a pedophile isnt a crime, abusing a child is a crime, pedophelia is a sexual orientation no different than being straight, gay, or bisexual.

Most pedophiles are able to control their urges and are never a harm to anyone, some cant though and they are called child abusers.

Edit: As for the OT, it wouldnt surprise me if this was some group of retards arresting him over lolicon or some shit.

While none of us know what's what and what will eventually stick, I'd like to chime in here real quick.

I find myself unwilling to accept that pedophilia is 'a sexual orientation no different than' any other. Whatever happens between consenting adults is one thing. When someone faps over images, thoughts, souvenirs of or with actual underage children present, party's pretty much over and I am absolutely unable to even want to generate any compassion or sympathy.

"I am only willing to accept a sexual orientation if it doesn't personally disgust me". When someone faps to the idea of a child, it's happening between consenting adults: one consenting adult is masturbating, there are no children involved. Or are you adverse to a sexual orientation that causes harm to others? Plenty of people have rape fetishes but would never actually rape anybody.

I do not intend to discuss this, as I find it absolutely beyond discussable. If someone really does naturally grow into being a pedophile, with people now seriously discussing that pedophilia is love like any other, I say fuck the DSM-5 and whatever pure chaos might follow.

Look, people with these urges might turn into Miyamoto for all I know, and that's fine - AS LONG AS IT IS UNDER CONTROL. Any lapse in control, and I'll gladly find myself in the same camp with plenty of people I hate because our lack of accepting pedo-rape-bear unites us and makes us pretty darn human. That's that in a nutshell for me.

Doug Stanhope sums up how difficult it is to find child porn here:


My point is, if they have enough evidence to arrest you for child porn, you're more than likely guilty. Especially in this case where this guy was charged with having child porn and accessing child porn.


And to the lolicon defenders here.

I personally don't even think lolicon should be acceptable in the slightiest. In my opinion its just as bad a child porn. The point that no children are harmed with lolicon is combated with the reason that such people look at lolicon in the first place. Its for sexual arousal caused by children, and I can't abide by that. There's too much of a slippery slope in lolicon for me to find it ok.

That's my opinion and you're free to disagree, but you have to acknowledge the fact that its still involves a person who is sexually attracted to children.

I'm also not calling for a witch hunt either. Any way society can help rather than demonize is ok with me, but in this case I highly doubt that its lolicon due to the charges involved.

And even if it is lolicon, he's still going to jail due to Canadian law.

You might find it beyond discussable, but studies have found that 1 in 4 males have tendencies toward pedophilia and 1 in 10 have masturbated to such a fantasy. 4% of respondents claim that they would have sex with a child if they faced no repercussions, and this is without considering the vast amount of nonresponse likely in a survey where these responses carry a huge burden of social undesirability. It's a legitimate and likely genetic sexual identity that currently has no way to be fulfilled legally.

Yeah... I want to see some verifiable sources on that before I even begin to come close to believing it. Those number seem extremely inflated.

This is the guy who wrote the script for Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, one of my most treasured games.

Weird.

Naturally grow, like a pod person! Except it only eats children. It is very picky.

That is really high, but then I thought, hmm, a certain major religion really pushes it as legitimate. Because all that sacred dude did is holy, and he did children. This is considered legitimate and followed in certain gulf states, as the increase in Syrian child slavery demonstrates. There it is supply trying to meet demand.

The truth (and identity) is out there.

This was just one arrest of many involving a country wide investigation which saw about 22 people being arrested. Two children were saved during the search and seizures. Something tells me this wasn't just anime.

Well in that case:
Did the children consent?[yes I know that they don't have the knowledge needed ect ect but I'm still curious on if they were willing]
And how old are we speaking, toddlers or young teens?
These things will affect my judgment but so far it's not looking good for him.

I don't think it matters. in the United States any person under the age of 17 is not legally declared an adult, and thus are dubbed to not be legally able to "consent" to sexual acts with anyone. We hear of teens having sex all the time, but it's harder to pin the blame on two teens then say, one teen, and an adult. If this is legitimately the case then this company had one hell of a dark cloud cast upon it.

You do know there is a difference between children pornography and underage pornography. the difference is sexual maturity of the "child" involved. if the "child" is sexualy mature, it is underage pornography and if he is not then it is child pornoggraphy (and/or paedphilia)

Naturally grow as opposed to being a deformation and defect due to either external stimuli or generally something going wrong on a psychological/neurological level.

I actually like your pod people analogy, as it is not quite as anal as intended.

 

[KOMega]

Every once in a while one of these stories pops up, and sometimes it turns out to be just to be a drawing of what "appears"to be a child and even then I would argue that the drawing does not harm anyone, let alone just having the drawing.

If however this is infact a kid or a picture or video of kids engaging in sexual acts, then this is legitimate and you can throw him under the bus then.

Not much details have been given here, so I don't know what to think.
