First, while I don't know what country you live in, you might as well precede that statement with, "Dear FBI."

You do understand that straight/gay guys don't rape children just because of seeing pictures of them clothed, right?

You do understand that pedophiles don't rape children just because of seeing a few pictures of them clothed, right? If they do rape children, it's because they're too horny, they don't have self control, or they have too many pictures and videos of naked children on their PCs and now they want the real thing.

If someone wants to rape a child and is stupid enough to do it, then it will happen.
If someone doesn't want to rape a child, then a few pictures of children won't change that.
It's interesting that you respond to a post that was saying exactly these things as if you were arguing. The point is that none of this excuses the use of the images to sexualize children, which does great harm in and of itself, both to individuals viewing the images and to the community into which they're introduced, regardless of whether anyone viewing them opts to commit the most heinous act of which human beings have so far proven themselves capable. If you can't understand why these images are, in and of themselves, a serious transgression against your fellow man, against society, and certainly against children and all who have children under their protection to any degree and in any way, then simply understand that in most nations, the consequences for owning and displaying these images are severe, and in most communities, including internet communities, including DV, they will not be tolerated.
