Child Porn vs Child Protection


Concerned Women has published an article regarding the 'fine line' of protecting our children or 'protecting' those who view child porn. Has our society become so desensitized that people who view and peddle child porn are not convicted on these heinous crimes?

The article continues:

It is symptomatic of the condition of our culture today that the Express, a daily newspaper for commuters published by the Washington Post, can feature a piece in its entertainment section about an indie-rock band known as the New Pornographers without raising any eyebrows. But let someone speak out against pornography and suddenly people get uncomfortable.

We’ve reached the point where we blindly ignore gross and horrific child abuse. And we’ve become so comfortable in our upscale communities that we don’t want to acknowledge what the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) calls “the seedy and sophisticated underworld” of child porn.
