[pp.int.general] Some info required about Jörg Tauss.

[Reinier Bakels]

I think it is time to make the radical step to question the general indignation on child pornography. Because the topic is so emotional, it is easily abused as a pretext for all kinds of censorschip that violate basic human rights.

No, I am not a paedophile. But I wonder: is there a reason to assume that they are more often sexually violent than other sexually active people? Of course, intercourse between adult people is often (very) desired, while intercourse with children is never desired.

But: isn't a preference for children an orientation like homosexuality, something that happens to people and can not be cured? Is the paedophile to be blamed for being a peadophile (if he does not rape children)? I am not an expert in this field, but I guess that looking at sexual pictures (perhaps while masturbating) could serve as a harmless alternative for real sex. But then they argue that making erotic pictures also violates rights of children. OK, but why disallow *virtual* child pornography? The running argument is that the distinction is hard to make. But isn't there ground to believe that the availability of (truly virtual) child pronography actuall *reduces* the risk of (actual) children to be abused? I love to look at the virtual tits of Lara Croft. http://www.moviesense.nl/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/189555-lara-croft_400.jpg      

And now I wait until the polic comes because I have broken the taboo to condemn child pornography unconditionally.

    Hi:

    We have seen published some news on spanish papers about some paedophilia 
    suspecting files found in Jörg Tauss computer.

    link in spanish:

    http://www.adn.es/politica/20090620/NWS-0738-SPD-Diputado-Partido-Pirata-sospechoso.html


    Besides, they also publised that he has left the German SPD  and now 
    affiliated to the German pirate party. Could anyone from any close/trusted 
    source, specially from the German pirate party, put some light over it?


  I was browsing Slashdot: and I came across the following post by Hurricane78 (navid.zamani at googlemail.com):

    The whole thing is a joke. It was his job to handle child pornography cases. He left, because he was disgusted with the way it is handled now.

    And another group of politicians made his special rights vanish in the blink of an eye, so that he could not react, and they had a window for suing him. It was all staged.
    Interestingly, that very group is known from the "Sachsen-Affäre". A large-scale scandal, where it is proven that they took private advantages, bribes (while in office), did illegal spying, human trafficking, child prostitution and drug dealing. And guess what happened to them. Exactly. Nothing.

    So the wolf is the shepherd here, and I guess you can pretty much bet, that the point of this law (at least partially) is to protect them.

    UPDATE: Good news: The Pirate Party accepted his membership. So now we have a Pirate in parliament!. Yay!

  I don't know who Navid Zamani / Hurricane78 is, but I thought forwarding this post might prove useful for anyone wanting to know more about this person.
