I completely agree with "the person who buys this video treats this the same as if he had bought a video of pedophilia. Because of that i think it shouldn't be filmed, not that the actual filming or acting is wrong."
Surely it's better though that if they are buying it because it resembles child porn that they are using the legal alternative where no child is actually hurt and they are just watching consenting adults. Take away the legal option of paedophiles who are at least making the conscious decision to watch the legal, faked version then all they have is the real thing, which as it's already banned yet still available you could do nothing about.
A) Legal version = nobody gets hurt. No child is abused. It's already regulated so fairly safe.
B) Illegal version = Abuse and exploitation of children. Impossible to regulate.
Take away option A and the demand will still be there yet the only alternative they would have is option B, thus possibly increasing demand and production of option B. It certainly won't stop ANYONE getting hurt and abused who already is.
Quote:If I made a cocaine substitute that was legal, but was pretty much exactly the same,only pink in color. Then I went and sold it to my friends as a legal cocaine substitute. I should hold some accountability (at the very least I would have severe guilt) for someone dying from an OD or going on a murdering rampage because of the stuff.
That would create SOOOOOOO many grey areas in the law. If doing anything that resembled a crime or resembled the outcome the law was trying to stop without actually commiting a crime became illegal it would be such a ridiculous place to live.
