Though I feel all measures that can be taken to protect children and find those who would harm them or distribute such filth should be taken, I'm not sure I completely agree with this law.

Putting the onus on the individual who finds the porn on someone's machine, is a little scary. I mean, sure people should report finding child pornography if they happen across a site on the net that contains it. That's a given. But what if this was a loved one? I'd think that I'd want to try and help them. I mean, it is a psychological disorder, similar to many others. Some specialists think it may even be a sexual preferences similar to homosexuality, bisexuality, etc. (I have a hard time stomaching that).

So if there is an option to get the person help without ruining their lives and those of their loved ones, then I think I would want to try that course first. Unless of course I had evidence that they actually assaulted a child. Then I'm sorry, but they have crossed the line...

Ok, now before anyone jumps down my throat or gets on a high horse. Think about this: I was a victim of sexual abuse when I was little, thankfully I don't remember much of it, but If I can think of trying to help someone out who may end up being like the person who abused me, why can't you?

I've also known a few others who were victims, I lived in a group home for a few years where my best friend was abused by her uncle since she was a baby. I have every reason to hate and loath child predators, and for the most part I do. I still believe that people can get better if they have help.

Maybe I'm naive, but I don't think so...
