What should be done with people who view child pornography?
Advertisements [?]
Last night I went out with three intelligent, liberal friends.

The discussion turned to child porn, and I was sort of stunned and amazed that there were four TOTALLY different opinions around the table, ranging from treating people who view child porn as pedophiles to saying they didn't really hurt or exploit anyone so they should get a slap on the wrist. The discussion also touched on issues of age of consent and complicity in committing a crime or exploiting others (including adults who are coerced into porn).

What do y'all think?

(We're not talking about pedophiles or people who MAKE child porn, just people who VIEW child porn.)
