"Man blames cat for child porn downloads
One kitty. One thousand pics
By Dan Goodin in San Francisco • Get more from this author
Posted in Odds and Sods, 7th August 2009 19:30 GMT
A Florida man accused of downloading more than 1,000 images of child pornography is blaming the offense on his cat, according to published reports.
Keith Griffin of Jensen Beach is charged with 10 counts of child porn possession after detectives found the images on his home computer, the Associated Press reports.
Investigators say Griffin told them his cat jumped onto his computer keyboard while he was downloading music. After returning to his machine following a brief trip to another room, he found "strange things" had happened to the machine. He said his cat frequently hopped on the keyboard when the PC was left on.
The 48-year-old is being held on $250,000 bond in the Martin County jail. It is unclear if the cat was neutered. ®"

unfortunately thats not how the legal system works, especially not when it comes to stuff like child porn -- shit is strict liability. if its on your comp, you are guilty. thats how the law for child porn operates, and how it is interpreted 99% of the time.
how could you possibly disprove any alibi? oh you have me on tape murdering someone? well it was a clone made by aliens and the real me was time traveling in an alternate dimension. well how could you disprove this?

certainly unfair to bring charges against the cat as it probably had no ability to discriminate between illegal and legal age limits for human actors/actresses. the cat was probably also under 18 itself.

The first part of your post is right I think.
But isn't it "innocent until guilty beyond reasonable doubt"? For example you couldn't say that alien had cloned you because that's crazy, but if you have an identical twin you can argue that he did it. It's happened before.

An attorney for the cat has released the following statement:
"These accusations are patently false and outrageous. The assertion that Mr. Dickens would simply traipse across a keyboard without caution or regard are ludicrous. Furthermore, my client has been alibied as being on the couch at the time of the download, vigorously cleaning his genitals. I have signed affidavits from both Orson, a blowfish with a spotless record, and fern in the corner of the living room to this effect.
"We trust in the American legal system. After this case is resolved, we intend to file a civil claim for damages in the amount of $150 million, to help Mr. Dickens pursue his own American dream, a house made of and filled with Meow Mix."

Considering my low post count, maybe
Although you know, Billy Mays was a cocaine user, the cat could have done it... (Joking, of course).
+ Show Spoiler +If we demand on a level of proof on par with that of mathematical certainty, then no, God's existence can't be proven just as it can't be proven God doesn't exist. If by 'proof' we mean something along the lines of inference to the best explanation given all available evidence, then I think surely one could, given the evidence, build a case in which is more reasonable to believe than its contrary. I don't in fact think theists are at all justified in replying, to any given objection, "well he is God and therefore transcends that" -- how is it that God transcends his 'dis-proofs' but not his proofs? Such things should be rejected out of hand. For all the bad arguments for and against the existence of God, there are also some very good arguments for and against the existence of God. For the theist, these would have nothing to do with 'fooling the unwashed masses'. Just my view on things, anyway.

I have a feeling that a lot of this child porn stuff is reactionary. It's engrossed in the public mindset to crucify these guys for their sexual orientation. Take Law and Order SVU. Every other episode there's some depraved sex fiend who rapes and kills children. I challenge you to find a modern paedophile who is celebrated with his or her paedophilia in mind.
With that said, this bullshit cat alibi could easily be disproved by tracking the download date for the pictures.

Naah, in so many words, Kwidomaker is right. There are academic and non-academic arguments for and against God, that's a fact. End of story. However, with regards to your post, I think pedophiles suffer the unfair plight of the fact that if they carry out their desires, people are hurt in the process. It is unfortunate.
|
How do you get caught for having child porn anyway, unless the cat reported him to the fbi.
|
It's entirely a problem of perspective.
When a paedophile goes a strokin', he (or she, but he has one less letter, no sexism here) has to have his pornography produced somehow, which inevitably requires a minor to be 'sexually abused' (I put that in quotations only to point out that 'sexually abused' is such a fucking gray area). Child rape is of course wholly (though perhaps not holy) wrong as long as rape is, but doing it to a child just makes it that much more unstomachable. There is a difference between the two though, and it should be obvious. When downloading kiddy porn the paedophile is indirectly 'abusing' a minor, whereas the kiddy raper is directly abusing.
Consider the little girl who made your textiles. I think you all know where this is going.

This child thing does go pretty obscenely far. Yes child porn is wrong, that isn't up for debate.... but was it up for debate is that I know that some lawmakers in the US have been clambering to make the possession of drawn lolis illegal (already like that in the UK.)
I don't understand how a clearly drawn picture that ISN'T DEPICTING A REAL ACT could be justified as something to throw someone in jail for.... really... how the hell does that even cross anyones mind?
Sometimes I think children are a little too voraciously protected.

I don't know, I think it depends. If it's a situation where new material is constantly being provided because of a viewership, then the viewer holds some responsibility. As much as the one performing the act? Probably not, either way you'd have to have a pretty sick mind.
+ Show Spoiler +Well, I usually stay away from any forum discussion even approaching the topic of 'God' or religion, for that matter. Too many people who would have us believe they're 'clever' To be clear, I'm not directing that comment at you (remembering what I said earlier). There are numerous academic arguments for the existence of God, most of them grounded in philosophy and theology, followed by history and science. So, I don't know if embrace really meant to say religion, or if he just uses the word religion interchangeably with the word God, in which case I would find what he said to be a bit odd. In any case, I tend to avoid discussions of 'God' and 'religion' on forums as inevitably, the majority of the arguments are rubbish, "spaghetti monster" arguments.

First off I want to say... this article is hilarious and of course no one is going to buy that story. A great find regardless.
Second I will say that people who make that stuff are going to do the terrible acts regardless of anyone viewing their photos or not. Like, seriously. I would imagine the pictures in virtually every case were intended for themselves but they decided to upload and share them anyway. If there was no internet it would be the same amount sicko's breaking the law and doing that stuff as we have today.
Should you really be considered a felon for looking at pictures? Is there any proof what-so-ever that pictures is a 'gateway activity' into the real thing?
Does looking at guro or incest material increase your chances of actually participating in that activity? Given, the pictures are wrong and horrid, but these are questions that need to be thought about in regards to our current laws.
Though it looks bad for anyone who tries to defend them, because OMG U SUPPORT IT OMGGGG

Actually many pedo-rings are fairly closed and in order to access the pictures you have to first submit a certain amount of "fresh" ones yourself. (Sort of like a private tracker, except that instead of uploading tv shows you rape people and post videos)
So yeah ~~ The presence of the pictures themselves definetly incites more rape.
I disagree with your second point as well, people are always more likely to do things (ecpecially unspeakable things) if they know they are not alone. The internet and their pedo rings give these people a sense of belonging and maybe a way to accept who they are. I am thouroghly convinced this increases the proportion of pedophiles who chose to live out their fantasies.

It was because he neutered the cat that it went and downloaded the porn.
THE CAT DID IT THAT MAN SPEAKS THE TRUTH!!!

^^I think it was more going for the porn part, like an unneutered cat would have sexual desires and therefore be more likely to dl porn. (Well, not really, but that is the joke.)

^^I think it was more going for the porn part, like an unneutered cat would have sexual desires and therefore be more likely to dl porn. (Well, not really, but that is the joke.)
The story itself is quite funny by its very nature but I am not sure that cracking wise in a story about child pornography is really appropriate for a newspaper.

Idk, it is "The Register: biting the hand that feeds it" and this is a list of its top articles atm.
# HP excessive packaging world record put to the test
# Man blames cat for child porn downloads
# Vid Brazilian TV ad: Save water, piss in the shower
# Brit diplomats' mission to expose Scientology's 'diploma mill'
# Warning: No IT angle Tattooed Swedish devil girls sexually molest cyclist
I mean, I've never heard of the paper before, so I can't really judge, but to me it seems to definitely be leaning towards humor quite heavily.

I don't know, I think it depends. If it's a situation where new material is constantly being provided because of a viewership, then the viewer holds some responsibility. As much as the one performing the act? Probably not, either way you'd have to have a pretty sick mind.
First off I want to say... this article is hilarious and of course no one is going to buy that story. A great find regardless. Second I will say that people who make that stuff are going to do the terrible acts regardless of anyone viewing their photos or not. Like, seriously. I would imagine the pictures in virtually every case were intended for themselves but they decided to upload and share them anyway. If there was no internet it would be the same amount sicko's breaking the law and doing that stuff as we have today. Should you really be considered a felon for looking at pictures? Is there any proof what-so-ever that pictures is a 'gateway activity' into the real thing? Does looking at guro or incest material increase your chances of actually participating in that activity? Given, the pictures are wrong and horrid, but these are questions that need to be thought about in regards to our current laws. Though it looks bad for anyone who tries to defend them, because OMG U SUPPORT IT OMGGGG Just my .02
If it's a situation where new material is constantly being provided because of a viewership...

Investigators say Griffin told them his cat jumped onto his computer keyboard while he was downloading music. After returning to his machine following a brief trip to another room, he found "strange things" had happened to the machine. He said his cat frequently hopped on the keyboard when the PC was left on.
This is gold...rofl.

Having a kiddy fetish, fine. Getting off on underage hentai, fine. Marrying a pillow with a picture of an underage girl on it, fine. Funding child abuse, not fine.
Stupid thing is that if we stopped treating it all like it's equally bad and provided safe outlets for these guys it'd probably cut the problem. If you're in as much shit for looking at cartoons as for the real thing then you might as well. Plus once you take the step of watching real child porn you know you're endorsing it which puts you halfway down the slippery slope to being okay with doing it. If you have a safe harmless option that harms nobody then you can get off to your fetish safe in the knowledge that you'd never hurt a child.

you were asking for huge flaming lolcats when you posted this man.

This thread is hilarious ^_^ No one is going to buy that.
Seems like there's been some discussion about certain things. First of all, being a pedophile, afaik, isn't illegal or anything by itself, I don't think it's their choice and they can't affect that they like children. It's kind of like if a man has a fetish for raping. It's not illegal, as long as he doesn't actually rape someone. So if they don't touch children or possess child pornography, I doubt they're doing anything wrong. Although this man is completely full of shit. And his picture = lol.
And drawn loli illegalization... is just dumb =S And it doesn't really affect anything in the end. They just have to make some plot modifications like a witch casting a spell on a 12-year-old that stops her physical aging, or just an underdeveloped, flat, short girl who even at 18 looks really young. Afaik there are 18-year-old porn starts that look like they're 15 or something. So... I have no idea how they can enforce the loli law. The author can just say that someone who looks young is 18 and what can they do about it? Maybe they're elves who age 5 times slower than humans and hence their body develops a lot slower? Just dumb ^_^
Looking forward to seeing how dumb the legal system can actually be. Perverts like this man should at least be put to jail. Why do all the child porn owners / child gropers look so... perverted?
E: Kwark makes a lot of sense.
