I don't understand. Really. How in the hell do you "blackmail" anyone into doing sex acts over Skype.

If they say "no, fark off", there's no leverage.

How does any of this even work? I don't remember being that stupid when I was a kid. "Hey, masturbate for me over video chat"

How about no? Does that work for you?

If you allow you minor children to have a computer in their room, you aren't supervising them.

Until they're of age, the computer should be out in an open common area where the screen is facing outward and you can monitor their activities and only permit access when there's someone around.

It sounds like he posed as being their age, maybe as a chick, and got them to do stuff. Then used that video to make them keep doing stuff.

I'd hit it

Spad31: Godscrack: What the hell are you on about? "deeply closeted, self-hating conservative Christian"? Are you projecting?

Rick Finkbiner owned the website for an evangelical church in Terre Haute.

So, no.

There's another Richard Finkbiner on FB. If it was me I'd change my profile pic to an image that said "Not this one".

gallagher taught me to have sex when i was 11 and my dad watched.

true story.

he had me spray the audience with water, while another boy my age blasted an air horn. gallagher had a hulk action figure straddling a vibrating watermelon. he gave us each $20 in ones to go on a date.

Oh, he's going to be a big man in the joint.
If he's lucky he'll be sentenced to a medical facility.
It's all about managing the consequences at this point in his soon to be short miserable life.

What no one gone for the Brazilian wacks joke......I'm so disappointed in you people.

I was going to say something like 'benefit of the doubt/devil's advocate' but then I thought, nah, fark it. Somehow these guys are usually dumb enough to leave mountains of evidence, and possibly .000000001% of accused people didn't actually do it.

If I were falsely accused of it, and my death would be a deterrant, then Godspeed, bring on the firing squad.

How do you figure? I mean the deterrent?

Unless you want to do it live on Youtube or something, over a free video feed and make sure it's routed to all the pervs who are out there trolling for jailbait; in which case, yes, it might be quite a deterrent at that.

Or as the Iraqi official said, when asked what he thought should happen to Saddam Hussein: "He should be given a fair trial under the law, and then hanged."

There is no need to have a public execution. Just shoot the guy, and say you shot him. Don't charge his family for the bullet or anything, or make a super big deal of it. I mean I can't see how this can be more clear cut:

They got his IP.

His computers were FULL of oodles of illegal crap.

He blackmailed children into performing sex acts.

Bullet to the head, and everyone is better off.

Technically, that's reverse phrenology: changing the personality by changing the pattern of bumps on the head. And yes, flattening the bumps on the head like that will definitely get rid of any pederastic personality tendencies.

Nem Wan: What is a pederast?

Shut the fark up, Donny.

That nose is fitting for such a pig.

My advice is never verb a noun. It weirds sentences.

That is one of my favorite Calvin and Hobbes strips. I also loved Calvin's father's wild explanations of things that Calvin always fell asleep for hook line and sinker.

I wonder if some of those proxies were set up by law enforment organization to find illegal activity and move things along.

Which one? Seriously though Gahllager is like 1000 years old now anyway. I was just posting that to show the kind of phrenology I was talking about. None of that old-fashioned fakery. Just good, solid, Newtonian science.

That's technically Retrophrenology, most commonly practiced among the citizens of Ankh-Morpork

Ok just because no one else has made the distinction:

Phrenology

Hate to be the nit-picker on this since it's a silly field anyway, but really... learn something from the vastness of the interwebs.

Oh fark me, guess I should have read through that site completely first. I'm more inclined to agree with the wiki article, aka it's a pseudo science.

Some people give perverts a bad name.

This guy is a sick fark and should be put away for a long time. People need to realize that anything you do on your webcam can and probably will be captured by the person watching it on the other side. All it takes is 1 simply body part flash and if someone has it captured they can use it against you over and over again using the fear of it ever getting out against you. They really should put warnings like that on all camming type sites "all of your actions can be recorded, do not do anything you wouldn't want staying on the internet forever".

david_gaithersburg: What is with all of the gay hate here? I thought you guys were all for the gay.


The real question is, where is the victim blaming usually so rampant on Fark? Normally it would be "if you make a sex video of yourself and send it to someone, you deserve whatever bad things happen to you." But if a gay perve is lurking behind the scenes, suddenly there are innocent victims.

If his victims were female they'd be "attention whores" and he'd get the "hero" tag.

Discuss.

Maybe everyone should go ahead and post pictures of their junk and butthole online and get it over with, admitting upfront and forever the strange fact that we're all made of flesh.

/ still found ways too look at pron as a youngin

In 1992 I was 15/16, I had the only computer in the house. It was in the basement. I ran a BBS on it. I did with it as I pleased. Guess what? I grew up fairly decent. Oh wait that's right, I had real parents that were firm as needed, etc etc. Oh and Europe. Yes Europe was a part of my growing up.

However, having known younger gay men even in this more modern time, I can see how they could reach out to someone that showed them even some affection. It's gotten better, but being a young gay male, especially in more rural areas is not an easy life and if someone appears to show some affection and accepts you for who you are ... yeah I can see where some venerability can happen.
