Huh, I thought I posted a correction but I was in a hurry so maybe I didn't save it.
I looked for the original article I *thought* I remembered reading about this book, but I can't find it. Everything I'm reading tonight says there are no photos in this book, which is likely why they depended on the decades-old obscenity laws to charge him with. I still think every private seller such as Amazon should refuse to sell such shit.

So my question here is, would having access to CGI child porn make there be more satisfiable gold-star pedos? Or would having that exist make them be more likely to go out looking for the real thing, gateway style?

I think historically chemical castration has not been very effective in stopping these people from raping children, so I don't have much faith that providing something to get them aroused and riled up would do any better. And how do we know about these magical pedophiles who never act on their impulses? Again, if they participate in the underground market for kiddie porn, they are still abusing children simply by expanding the market for this product.
