Hi Jimbo,
A couple of people have taken exception to your references to
paedophiles in this debate, and I'd like to join them. Is there any
evidence that actual paedophiles were arguing for the inclusion of
that image? Or is it just, as you acknowledge, anti-censorship people
getting caught up in the argument and crossing the bounds of good
taste?
Conflating anti-censorship, anti-prude, anti-common sense, or simply
trollish people with paedophiles is unfair at best, and inflammatory
and offensive at worst, isn't it?
