manga porn illegal

Post by ribot »

In sweden a translator of japanese manga comics has been convicted. Reason: posession of fictional child porn pictures.... Pretty bizarre I must say. Although the subject is taboo, why is it worse than fictional murders or so ?

Anyway I don't care. Just letting you know..,.

Because having pictures of naked children is illegal, whereas having pictures of dead people is not.

But yeah, it's completely retarded. Basically this makes dragonball and comics like it illegal. Like wat? o,o

And wasn't this a while ago? I remember reading about it like half a year ago or something like that.

I understand some people might view these weird mangas as being immoral but putting a man in jail for that? For some animated drawings doing stuff you don't like? That's ridiculous. Will they jail people for just thinking about it next?

I mean, I don't see anyone who's contributed to the movie A Serbian Film going to jail despite a newborn rape scene. Ban the art if you don't like it (even if I don't agree with that) but don't imprison people for it.

The world is one weird place.

from what I've heard Sweden is a bit "police controlled" country in general, but this scares me...

the guy was convicted only to pay a fine..i guess it's not supposed to be "convicted"...and it happened quite a while ago, but they are still waiting for the highest court to take the case... anyway, i guess swedes are quite informed about it, but i think it's interesting for others to know too.
