WTF? "I think I may have been sexually abused as a child and I was doing research into it." Asshole. This fucking pisses me off -- this is no excuse for looking at CP.
I've been in heavy-duty therapy for over 2 years, gone through some hair-raising shit while getting through dealing with what happened to me as a little girl, but there was never a time when I thought, "Hey! Since I got fucked when I was little, how's about I go find me some nice child porn while I work through my issues? That'd be good."
There are literally thousands of places one can research incest recovery and get support for it -- granted, a lot of them seem to be populated by large, overly religious women who want to play a rousing game of "MY abuse was worse than YOUR abuse, neener neener" or "I got through my time of trial with the help of Jeeeeeeebus Christ" -- but not one of these support and/or research sites is going to encourage, support, or condone seeking out CP. (Looking at too many in one day sometimes encourages me to go out and shoot the very next person who says that "God loves me", but that's beside the point.)
Townshend is a rat bastard, and if he believes in a hell, I dearly hope he's earned himself an especially hot, nasty place in it for being involved in CP. Fucker.
