There may be somethings missing from the release of the photos of Epstein's Buildings. [View all]

This may be unsettling or upsetting to some out there who may not understand the full scope of porn on the internet. It exists. Simple fact. But there are all kinds of internet porn from tame Playboy gals to BDSM to, well, just about any perversion one can imagine. And it’s not all just on the “Dark Web” either!

That there are photos of people in positions many might find astonishingly offensive, one thing overlooked is “what’s in the background” of those photos? How many times have you been shown and seen someone in a photo but can’t even recall, just a little while later, what was in the background? Standard fare could run from scenic to erotic on those internet photos and to be honest, probably 99.99% of those viewing such images don’t and won’t notice the background. Which brings me to my comment.

If erotic, obscene, BDSM photos or worse (yes, there are worse photos than those few items) of, let’s say women, girls, young girls, men (some may even be identifiable, perhaps, Bubba?) or even children appear on porn sites on the net, one might wonder if any of the backgrounds could match up with photos from any of the Buildings, Rooms or Areas of Epstein’s Island?

Imagine a photo of a sexual (or worse) encounter being discovered that clearly was taken somewhere on one of his Island places. Further, imagine an identifiable person (not a subject victim) in the photo! Of course, finding such a photo or photos might prove daunting but I’m sure Pam and the DOJ would spare no expense filling all needed “seats” at computers with all of Musk’s computer help to scavenge the net for such images if only to try to prove none may exist. Of course, I wouldn't even consider any of today's media doing the "leg" work to try to find anything like those!

On the other hand, should any questionable photo or photos appear of possibly underage girlsminors or other victims maybe even being molested (by known person or persons) or even just posing in what may be described as definitely a room somewhere on Epstein’s Island, I would venture a guess that Pam would be more than happy to call for major investigations and release the photo to the press (faded image of the subject, of course!). And if that might happen to show someone who could be identified – someone who may be on the “list”, well, I think that might make for a “very interesting" development as old Laugh-in’s Arte Johnson might say. Some politicians may even call for release of those pictures or files. And of course, some may certainly want to hide them…for security reasons, no doubt!

Realistically, I’m sure ANY such existing photo would never really see the light of day under any Republican Administration or investigation…unless some intrepid amateur internet sleuths with capabilities of “Web Exploration” happened upon some (any takers out there?). Of course, the AI Nuts will provide comic relief for us until then.

But, what if…

Democracy just might be interested in knowing.
