World Nut Daily is now publishing child porn

I'm not going to post a link - first, because it's a right-wing hate site, and secondly because quite frankly it's extremely disturbing. It's linked from Drudge's site with a headline about children being victimized on Facebook, if anyone really needs to verify the story.

Basically, World Nut Daily did their own "undercover" investigation into child porn rings operating on Facebook. The WND article contains graphic descriptions of child sex acts, as well as barely blurred images of children engaging in sex acts. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't this also make WND guilty of publishing child porn?

Quite frankly, I found the article completely repulsive, and couldn't believe that they would find it necessary to include such graphic descriptions and photos. Maybe they just know their audience, who knows, but seems to me that this article itself could be considered illegal. Question is, who would this be reported to?

Wasn't there just an author who went to jail for "researching" child porn?

That's how these criminal pedophiles find each other.

These people if found guilty should be thrown in a hole and then throw away the key.

Most internet hosting companies etc. simply turn these kinds of complaints over to the NCMEC, since that is the only organization with a statutory exemption.

While child molesters are widely despised across society, it's actually Republican legislators who usually push for the toughest (some say too tough) sex-offender laws.

This occasionally pops up in the news, especially when harsh laws are passed that prevent sex offenders form living however many feet from places like schools and day care centers. In some places this effectively exiles sex offenders from the community, since many cannot afford homes in the suburban sprawl where there is enough distance between housing and places like schools, etc.

Try bringing up sex offenders next time you're around a conservative Christian. You will find that their attitudes towards them are usually very harsh. It also usually fits in with their homophobia and disdain for liberals, since many equate homosexuality and pedophilia and believe that permissive liberal culture encourages sexual deviance.

Your reams of rhetoric are nothing compared the long, long lists of convicted repig pedophiles.

But you can do a "whois" and report them to their ISP.
