Happy tissues or sad tissues?

Bear Grylls lives just down the street. Coincidence?

calbert: it could've been even creepier

Yes, that is worse. The pitcher of lemonade just seals it though.

This guy is f*cked up in a real serious way.

cman: I am no expert at CP laws, so I will just ask, is nudity alone enough for a child pornography conviction?

It doesn't even have to be real nudity, there's been convictions based on fictional depictions of child porn, like hentai and what not. I can't provide any specific cases because I'm not going to google underage cartoon porn from my work computer again.

Here's one of the creepiest things I've ever read. (Stolen from this Cracked article Link
A 57-year-old man living by himself in Japan began to notice small things amiss in his house -- objects wouldn't be where he'd left them. Food would disappear that he swore he didn't remember eating. He'd wake up to strange sounds in the middle of the night, but every time he'd go and check them out, the door would be locked, the windows tightly shut. Nobody was there.

Was he losing his mind? Being messed with by a shy poltergeist? To find out, he set up a series of spy cameras around his house. The next morning, he ran back the footage on the camera and that's when he saw it. A strange woman crawling out of a cupboard like it was the TV in The Ring. And if you think that's terrifying, imagine what happened inside his stomach when, at the end of the video, she crawled back into the cupboard. The one that was just a couple of feet away from where he was standing, watching the video.

Presumably in an effort to maintain bowel control, the man assumed the woman was a burglar who was only temporarily hiding in the cupboard, and had since left. He called the police, who pointed out that all the locks on his doors and windows were undisturbed. There was simply no evidence whatsoever that anybody had broken in -- in other words (cue dramatic strings) the woman had been in the house all along.

After a thorough search, the woman was found nervously huddled in a small cupboard. Apparently she had sneaked into the house and slept, ate and even took showers there for an entire year without being detected. Think of all the things you've done in your most private moments -- the things you thought nobody would ever see. Now imagine a homeless Japanese woman had been watching it all. Yeah. We'll let that one sink in for a moment.

I can just imagine them opening the cupboard door and her being like "Sup?".

"Hello"



/hot

"Yeah, I think I found the problem: your drains are clogged with rotting, dead bodies. You wanna come take a look?"

Creepy... or GENIUS??

If he installed cameras...why was he just...hanging out? Doesn't that defeat the purpo...y'know what I'm just flabbergasted. I be it.

Yeah whatever you do, don't start reading the Great Teacher Onizuka manga. There's so many depictions of deviant behavior like this (and others) that you will lose your mind. I myself was in training for the mental state [of an otaku] for several years before I read it, so I was able to get 20 volumes in without vomiting, but... yeah. Take say, my white-bread yuppy sister who teaches French/German in Indiana, converted to Catholicism, and has kids. She'd probably have nightmares for months over some of the stuff in there.

Mind you, I'm not even bashing GTO. I like the story. But some of the minor characters are damn right CREEPY.

/Moth-suit guy, I'm looking at YOU...

Dad!?

But seriously... that is some farked up shi**, that would certainly make the baby Jesus cry.

Mark Ratner: Happy tissues or sad tissues?

In this case, I'm gonna say YES

DO NOT WANT Poster Girl: I find it sad that here's a woman living alone with a toddler in a flimsy trailer and the newspaper thought it was a great idea to toss in her actual address along with the details of how to break in.

Hopefully she's moved out.

They don't give a sh*t about her privacy or protection, they've got a story to write.

Yeah, she needs to move.

I`m surprised he didn`t ask her to marry him.

Hello!

What I find weirdest of all is that he was recording onto videotape while the rest of the world has moved on to SD cards and other forms of solid-state memory.

...or at least reporters are still calling it "videotaping".

I can't believe I didn't pick up on this conspiracy. Did my tinfoil hat not protect my brainwaves enough? I'm sure yours must be better; I'd love to know the number of your supplier so I could dial her up.

Anti-gunners. Surely you see why capping this hideous troll would be a service to God and country ....

drop a big fat turd on his head, that'll teach him
I wanna watch

True, but 'sd-carding' or 'solid-state-memorying' just don't have the same ring to them.

*sees what you did there*

IIRC the conviction involving manga was a guilty plea, not a trial, and it was an obscenity conviction and not a child pornography conviction. Obscenity statutes were amended to encompass underage and imaginary depictions. How to determine the biological age of a stylized cartoon character was not hashed out because, as noted, they got a guilty plea, which avoids the inconvenience of proving facts. It seems likely that a drawing could be ruled constitutionally protected expression if a defendant had the stamina and wherewithal to litigate it.

Depictions of mere nudity, even photographs and film including nude children, are not illegal. There are statutory definitions that get pretty detailed on distinguishing a legal nude image from an illegal sexually explicit image. But, the objective definition often doesn't matter because if someone is perceived to be a pedophile then, informally, child porn is circularly defined as whatever the pedophile has made or collected that involves children. Most cases end in a guilty plea. Usually, the person of interest actually is a pedophile and comes off as a pedophile, and so counting on a jury trial to disqualify evidence because of the technical definition of child porn may be a bad bet.

Reporters can keep it simple just by referring to it as "recording".

Stop trying to bamboozle me with "facts" or "good ideas" - I have it on good authority that if I white knight crappy journalists they might sleep with me.

I wonder if these guys that like to watch people use the bathroom would be willing to PAY to watch.
