This illustrates the absurdity of the law. Going to prison for writing text, where there were no actual victims involved. A much more widespread absurdity is that shock/violent/gore images are perfectly legal, yet they also contain victims who are emotionally harmed, or whose families are emotionally harmed by the distribution of those photos. Look at the Nikki Catsouras case: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikki_Catsouras_photographs_controversy Yet there is nothing illegal about hosting pictures of her car accident. So you can have one or the other, either we protect people from speech that may emotionally disturb or offend someone, including the victims of child sexual abuse and of violence who appear in gore pics, or we allow it, but allowing one and not the other is irrational and hypocritical. I would rather the government not make that decision.
