Man who wrote 'how-to' for pedophiles arrested

[Eddie]

I listened to a lecture once, the gist of which was that many of the exceptions to our rules of evidence get created because of child molesters. A series of examples was presented to show cases were an accused molester presented a valid defence that would exclude evidence in their case only to have the court find an exception to the rule. Each time one of these cases got upheld on appeal another loophole was formed allowing otherwise inadmissable evidence to be used in future prosecutions, not only prosecutions of child molesters though, against anyone.

Great post. Lots of legal "exceptions" are what has caused a lot of our rights to be eroded. RICO being another one. It was supposed to be used against organized crime, ends up being used against all kinds of weird things.

Usually some truth in old sayings. Bad cases make bad law.

I am not an incompetent person. I completely understand the situation. Hence why I stated STRICTLY PERSONAL. Don't violate MY 1A rights to express how I feel about pedophiles.

I don't see you being arrested for writing your opinion down here. Hence, no violation of your 1st Amendment rights.

He committed no crime. I don't like what he did, but he committed no crime.

You can't write a "HOW-TO" for committing crimes and expect to get away with it!!

Explain your reasoning. Last I checked, I'm free to write about whatever I please without being arrested. The 1st Amendment is there for a reason, and here's a hint: it's not toilet paper.

I am a firm supporter of free speech, but not when children's lives are at steak. An orderly society should not allow people to to exploit children!! As a father i think there needs to be limits to protect children.

Unfortunately if you start drawing a line in the sand onwhat is free speech and what isn't, then people that get offended are going to keep moving the line.

People are free to express themselves even if other people dont like what is being expressed.

Or, at least, it should be that way.
