I have done it, please do so aswell (hope no one minds this thread) Green rep to any one that replies after doing it
I don't think it 'prevents' anything per say. I think the idea is to educate, inform, and the like...is it not? I need to go back. Does it contain additional info. Like: here's what else you can do to help...
The idea probably is. But by lighting a candle, you aren't actually DOING anything to stop child porn. You are just clicking your mouse button. Think any politician cares about a million "clicks" online? Does anyone NOT understand (besides the ACLU) that child porn is a problem? That's my point.
As for not being my business, you are dead wrong. If a child is being abused it is all of civilized societies business. If your neighbor is abusing a child, what, you just look away cause it is not yours? That is pathetic. "child porn FTW!" Care to explain what you mean by this?
This sounds like you approve of child porn. Are you that type of person? Candle lit, message left and red rep given.
It looks as though they're well on the way to lighting a million candles. But I'm also asking myself, what specific good will this do? Child pornographers are already amongst the most reviled of all criminals, and there are already laws against them. Do the campaigners want to divert funds from other police activities towards eradicating this problem? In which case, which other police activities should face cutbacks? If the ultimate aim of this website is to stimulate this sort of debate, then perhaps it's all for the good.
I don't think it really has to do any specific good. Just raising general awareness and keeping the issue from being forgotten is a good enough reason to take a few seconds and light the candle.
I know this but I am not one of an army of vigilantes, so if maybe in some way doing that on the website would help I dont no but why not. Well I take you dont have kid's, but even so!!! I have read things that many others must have over there life, that sick things happen to children, child porn is just one of them. children have even been kidnaped for this and this could happen to any one at any time anywhere. I am sure I dont have to go into detail on what these kids have to go through and live with for the rest of there lives, but if you dont have a heart then I am sure that no post would be even needed from you or any one else even thinking about doing one ALL people that do this thing should be made to bleed to death from all 5000 exit's of there largest orgon (there skin) I think the website is to show people that it does happen and open other peoples eye's on this, I thiunk if it wasnt on such a bad subject they would give stories on children that have been through this sort of thing. There is nothing we can do really but if we all gave up in anything in life like this then where would we all be now! Also please note people there are others out there that have been through these things and if they see a website like this and see the serport that there is and how many people dont agree with it, then this will give there minds some sort of hope in life I am sure, remember we cant do anything but doing something must help some one out there in some way even if its a smile.
