Legalization of child pornography?

[Dumac Dwarfking]

I'm sure some of them have become that way from personal experience, but certainly not all of them, and it would be far too presumptuous to allow legal access of child pornography to the masses in the hope/possibility that it may save lives.

Why are you sure? I gave my opinion alongside the admission that I'm fairly clueless on the subject. I'm intrigued to know why you claim a degree of certainty.

And I added a proviso to the access of the pornography (an employment blacklist), so it isn't exactly something a curious person would want to risk. As for it potentially increasing the number of paedos... I mean, I'm no advocate for the lack of stupidity in the human race... but even I baulk at the idea of a "monkey see, monkey do" when it comes to the sexualisation of children.

I'm not "sure". I simply based this on your previous statement, all I've expressed is merely opinion.

I don't invision a "monkey see, monkey do" expansion of sexual predators, I simply meant that people who may never have stumbled across this material as it available today, may come across it in an easy to access database, and find that they like what they see. Again, I know of no research that's been done so all expressed is simply my opinion.

And if the access to this material was on the proviso of joining a blacklist, people would invariable choose to continue to find the material without signing up for the database. On the database everyone will know of that persons affliction, but in secret, he/she may justify that he will never get caught. This would make the whole exercise futile.
