This blog is written by a wife whose husband got caught viewing child “corn on his computer at home.  

Out of nowhere, the swat team showed up with a search warrant and seized their computer.  They found child “corn on it.  The husband made a deal and is going to prison for 4 years.  While I sympathize that it must be horrible to wake up and find out your whole world is changing, I think it's out-of-line to be saying child “corn is harmless.

The reason this woman should GOMI – the wife thinks it shouldn't be illegal to look at child “corn because the children in the photos or video don't know that her husband was looking at them.

Quotes from the blog:

"Victim impact statements are commonly a bit of boilerplate stuck into the presentence investigation report, with no real consideration of whether it applies to the case or not. If the defendant used child “corn, it is assumed–and used against the defendant–that his looking at images has damaged a child. Even a child who cannot be identified, who has no idea that this particular man looked at those photos, and perhaps has no idea that the photos are out there at all."

"The person who looks at child “corn is victimized by a court system and a society that treats him as if he has committed the abuse in the photos even when he did not."

"Looking at images should not send someone to prison, even if society as a whole finds those images especially repugnant and even if those images are of a crime. We don't send people to prison because they look at pictures from the Nazi prison camps or from the rape of Nanking or from the massacres in Rwanda. All repulsive images; all images of crimes against children as well as adults. Why is child “corn treated differently? Is it because we assume the viewer is sexually aroused by something he should not find arousing? Arousal is not illegal; neither is masturbation nor fantasy."

How could she stay with someone who masturbates to child “cornography? Throwing up, judging, and throwing up some more.

THIS. my fucking god, their children need taken from both of them

This is really awful. There are lot of things in life that are uncertain but I know this: if I caught my boyfriend/husband/whatever looking at child “corn or being with a child, it's over and I would thank him for making it so easy to dump him because he is that much of a sick bastard loser.

In my area, three high school teachers are being accused of having sex with students, and two admins tried to cover it up. When are people going to realize that we need to protect children, not disgusting, abusive adults???? WHEN?

I have to wonder if this isn't fake. Written by someone who is into child “corn and is trying to justify it by creating this blog where his "wife" defends him and how it really doesn't hurt anyone.

I just have to not believe that someone would defend such a digusting and vile thing.

Well, I thought the same thing.  However, there are links in the blog to a prison forum.  She is posting there saying the sex offender registry list is unfair.  Basically the same stuff in her blog.

I've learned never to say never in my life but honestly, that would be a deal breaker for me.  I wouldn't be able to get over something like that.  

Child “corn drives me up the wall.  I think parents that post pictures of their kids on the internet are crazy.  I'll never get over that my little webpage for the grands got linked on child “corn sites.  Believe me, the pictures were not provocative in any way. They were innocent pictures.  My husband's foot never appeared as a foot or anything else and the page still got linked.

I think this is fake, created by a child “corn aficionado, trying to justify his habit. There is too much here about how the real victims are the men caught looking at child “corn, not the children being exploited, and that is a common thread for these guys – that the 'system' victimizes them, because they aren't responsible for creating the images.

Binky said makes raping children a profitable undertaking.
 

I DO NOT understand how, if this is real, that doesn't occur to her. It's basic economics. Without demand, there would be no supply. If people like her husband weren't consuming the evil stuff, people wouldn't make and market it.

BARF BARF BARF

Pineapplehead, I figured you were just so grossed out, you lost control a little. Totally understandable with this topic. 

How sad is it that this is probably going to be the only thread where we all agree? 

Yes, viewing child “corn IS harming those children!!! They were harmed in the process of producing the “corn and the demand to view it means that children are harmed in the process of making it!! I can't even look at the blog or it will make me even more ragey than I already am. This woman is an ignorant fuck.

HOLY SHIT.

 

So, I'm gonna dig up the lady's grandma, steal the jewelry off her body and then roll her down a hill. The lady's dead, so there's no victim. Right?

When some delightful young lads at the local college gang-raped a high school girl at their fraternity party last year, part of their defense was, because they had drugged her and she had no clear memory of what was done to her, the impact of their alleged actions should be deemed as negligible. They also argued that, because she didn't say 'no', they shouldn't be held responsible, because they took that as an implicit 'yes'. Those rapscallions sure were thoughtful, roofing her almost to death so that she spend the rest of her life seeing random men on the street and wondering if he was 'one' of her rapists, too. Seems pretty similar to me, in terms of defense.

I can't even wrap my head around child “cornography. And I can't wrap my head around the idea that a man who indulges in watching it can feel victimized when he gets caught.
