Sentenced For Viewing Simpsons And Pokemon Cartoon Porn

TO Australia, where Glenn Phillip McGuire is pleading guilty to possessing child pornography, specifically naked characters from The Simpsons and Pokemon performing sex acts on each other.

Like this blast of Olympic-standard oral sex from Lisa Simpson.

Children are being exploited. Not real children, but drawings of children. And that is enough.

Mr McGuire admits to Newcastle Local Court that he had six such images on his computer.

Mr McGuire did not create the images, but downloaded them while surfing the Limewire website. He dowloaded the images, which is, apprently, not the same is walking into bookshop and looking at such images in Manmga comic books; or dowloading them from a shelf. Call the thought police. Emergency!

Mr McGuire is convicted, fined $1000 and placed on a 12-month good behaviour bond.

In Australia a “person” includes cartoon characters.

As a Justice Adams ruled last year, in a similar case:

“The alleged pornography comprised a series of cartoons depicting figures modelled on members of the television animated series The Simpsons. The male figures have genitalia which is evidently human, as do the mother and the girl. The mere fact that the figure depicted departed from a realistic representation in some respects of a human being did not mean that such a figure was not a ‘person’.”

Says McGuire’s defence barrister Mark Preece:

“It’s the sort of spam email garbage that is disseminated all around this country every day. The images are at the extreme lowest end of the scale. He’s extremely embarrassed about the nature of the charge. To say that this is a very unfortunate matter is probably a gross understatement.”

Comic books are porn.

It’s a fact soon to be enshrined in British law…
