I don't think the issue is about the banning of the book anymore. I think the arrest of the man who wrote the book is the bigger issue now.

Jeez people, Amazon is a business and they can sell WHATEVER THEY WISH.

This is not an issue of government censorship at all.

now if Amazon decided that public backlash was going to be severe, and they didn't want to deal with it, and they thought it was going to affect their bottom line, then they can stop selling it. That's all that happened.

Not a freedom of speech issue, sorry.


Why is it so hard for you to understand why this thread was bumped, and why it is now a freedom of speech issue?

what a setup.

i think the book is disgusting, but to arrest someone over a book... crazy.

there are many tv shows svu? should they all be arrested? where does it stop?

better hope the judge throws the case out.

I could see putting the man who wrote the book under investigation. I'd like to see what a computer forensics specialist can do with his hard drive, honestly.

But yes, I definitely think that there is a limit to free speech. Call me old fashioned, but I think that the molestation of children is something that should be frowned upon in all respects, and not romanticized.

Pretty sure child rape wasn't a fashion of any time, and the closest thing to being a pedophile without actually breaking the law would have been the old fashioned times of marriage at young age anyway.

So, according to the CNN article, here's how the arrest is made: the charge is "distribution of obscene material depicting minors engaged in harmful conduct" - from Florida state law. Apparently an undercover detective from Florida purchased and received the book, and that's that - violation of state law - arrest.

If people didn't act with such outrage, this would never have gotten any attention. And I don't think any more little kids would have been raped thanks to this book than if it were never published.

Child abuse/sexual assault is a big problem but I don't think arresting this man is doing anything for the cause. I bet those cops feel like they're heroes of humanity though.

Of course it would be Florida; they're the same ones that ordered DVDs from Max Hardcore's website and successfully prosecuted him. It's like they're trying to police the internet for us.

Don't bother explaining it to him, when one dies they spawn into a hundred more and create right-wing political parties with stolen 4chan mottos.


I haven't read the book, obviously, but from what I can tell it seems to me that the author is either well-intentioned but can't control his sexual cravings, or honestly believes a compossionate sexual relationship with a minor should be acceptable.

Either way, he decided to write a book which from what I understand is largely about safety (in a physical, psychological, and don't-find-me legal sense). The only problem is that this man either doesn't understand or doesn't care that a child under 14 isn't mentally developed enough to know whether they want to have sex (a 15 year-old girl knows if she wants sex, even if she ends up regretting it later).

Do I think prison time is the right thing? Definitely not. You'll be turning a presumably gentle child molestor into a prison-hardened paedophile. The man needs therapy, not a few years to get horny and angry behind bars.

i was exaggerating AND was referring only to the current discussion
But I see your point

now to rephrase: free speech shouldn't be an absolute law, there are and there will be cases where exceptions have to be made.

Free speech is not absolute. Why do people think it is?
I always try to give a sensitive, reasoned answer. This is usually awkward, time consuming and pointless.

Actually, it was, in many places and times. An example that comes to mind is the Roman Empire.
The use and abuse of slave children for sexual pleasure was quite common back then.
