the domain "thebirdisthe" is ALL MINE SUCKERS.

The laws are there to protect children. This is true. What is not true is the assertion that no children are harmed in the making of these images. A graphic drawn image of CP may not be the direct result of an abused child, but it will add to the potential of a child being abused. Considering these images as legal only serves to "normalize" this mental illness and predatory behaviour. Anything which dierctly feeds the Pedophiles illness is in of itself dangerous.

If you consider me ill-informed, then so be it. I'd rather be uninformed than a pedophile apologist.

So are you suggesting that a masterfully done manga of a 4 year old being graphically raped by an older man is *not* child pornography? Or perhaps a 7 year old boy pleasuring an old man in all its pulp throbbiness?

Drawings can certainly be child porn, make no mistake about it. The question is where can the law draw the line.

Leave the TomTom at home.

Not of me of course, I was merely an innocent bystander, too afraid of my wifes wrath.

1) Find a place where trains pass somewhat slowly

I rolled my own RHEL5 desktop cloud. If an engineer does something stupid, the VM he has reserved dies and he reserves a new one. He doesn't impact the other virtual desktops and the VM that he crashed gets rebuilt from a single master image. This is the benefit of isolation, and it can be extended to security if you plan it right. It all boils down to the competency of the admins.

Hey, have you lost your virginity yet? Cause that's something you have yet to deliver in the last 20 years...

Seriously though, most telcomm operations operate like this. Their switching centers are all fully automated and unmanned, and usually in the basement of some non descript building. This is nothing new.

Do you have something against being made accountable for your own words? I am free to say whatever I want whenever I want, but I am held accountable for those words. If my words encourage hatred towards a minority, I am committing a hate crime. If my words encourage suicide, I am complicit in their demise. Thats the only real implication.
