i'm 37 and i don't care. i could care less if this person goes to prison for whatever sentence the judge and jury gives her. i could care less because i believe in the system as a whole and in the idea that it functions quite well and has for a long time. its not perfect, nor will it ever be... and no other legal system is either but this case is not something totally unexpected or out of left field. and she didn't write child rape stories for me, for my family or in defense of my purported rights. she wrote child rape stories to attract pedophiles.
you can go on forever about history, rights, constitution etc and at the end of the day, any moron would know that she was on very thin ice and any attorney would have demanded she stopped what she was doing because of the obvious legal risks. she is being prosecuted for obscenity and you know what?.. its NOT on the front page of global news for a reason... because no one cares about a person doing something like this, no one wants to defend it and few will try.
you can't extrapolate from such extreme arguments/examples to deduce that this industry wouldn't exist without people like this clown. thats just not true and its not provable. you can argue all day long that people have to fight... fight for everything and argue all day long that without those fights nothing good will happen or that the sky will fall and that doesn't change the fact that the laws DO already exist.. these issues have been to court and just because something odd popped up that the law doesn't happen to address, doesn't mean that the earth will fly off its axis if everyone doesn't get agressive and "fight" for someone they don't agree with doing something they feel is wrong.
