another obscenity bust…
Looks like another obscenity bust has taken place, thanks FBI. This particular case is unique because they were exchanging porn access to iraq soldiers…. for pictures of corpses in iraq. yup.
Corpses for Porn
The American operator of a Web site which posted grisly pictures of people killed in the Iraq and Afghan conflicts was arrested on obscenity charges unrelated to the war photos, police officials in Florida said.
Unrelated? Uh… no? Is anyone stupid enough to believe that?
The Polk County sheriff’s office said Christopher Michael Wilson was arrested on Friday and faces one count of wholesale distribution of obscene material and 300 misdemeanor charges relating to the Web site and pornographic photos.
The charges were unrelated to the photos of corpses from Iraq and Afghanistan, which the site states were provided by U.S. troops in exchange for free access to pornographic material.
Sure. Well, look folks, i hope you’e not stupid enough to believe this has nothing to do with the war photos. There are literally dozens of much larger adult sites out there, some dealing with degredation porn and worse. it all comes down to the simple fact that its ludicrious to bust these guys and not think they were one of the first targets due to the war photos. ludicrious
Now dont get me wrong… I think displaying war photos is definately on the borderline of what free speech was designed to protect. Its a fringe freedom for sure. But, you fucking start exchanging those photos for porn, then you’re definately pushing the moral boundries.
