[QUOTE=silentjubjub;32671143]Pfft. Reasonable suspicion.
I'm glad they caught him but if those teens hadn't broken inside this guys house and gotten these CDs, there would be NO suspicion.
And all the things the police found inside his house would have never been found because there would have been no probable cause to issue a fucking warrant.[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure how that invalidates the case. The case may have been discovered [I]because[/I] of unrelated illegal activity, but that only invalidates the evidence directly compromised; AKA, the CD's stolen by the burglars. The burglars likely traded the CD's for a plea bargain of some sort, which gives the judge ample cause to issue a search warrant.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding your argument, but it seems like you're saying, "it doesn't count, because nobody would have known he was a pedophile if they had never found his child pornography," which is a silly argument to make. That's like saying, "in the event that a crime goes undiscovered, there is no crime," which, of course, is not the case.
fuck i'm not going to get my CDs back am i

There are pedo rights activists?[/QUOTE]
yeah they want to legalise cgi CP
the reasoning goes that they'll jack off to that rather than go around molesting kids, and since its virtual no kids are exploited in the process of making the porn
I kind of agree with it
[QUOTE=JDK721;32685237]can you read? not one fucking time in my post did I ever say or imply that I approve of what he did.
if you actually comprehended my post, you would've realized that I have an issue with HOW they obtained the evidence and were able to get a search warrant.[/QUOTE]
I must've been distracted by your ~~edgy~~ counter norm ideology
"Help! Police! I've been robbed!"
"What did they take?"
"They took my kiddie porn- I mean... fuck."
[QUOTE=Valdor;32670697]I think the burglars made up for their crime by turning him in. I don't really even feel it's bad that they broke into the pedophile's home, but no doubt ill be called dumb by pedophile rights activists.[/QUOTE]
This is THE most ill-informed post I've ever seen in the news section and that's really saying something. Are you a pedophile? YOU DON'T HAVE RIGHTS ANYMORE! This isn't even an argument about the death penalty or some shit with tenuous but understandable justifications. You just claimed pedophiles don't have to right to not be burgled from.
[QUOTE=Falchion;32684691]childporn almost always has a victim. theres a kid in every child porn picture and somewhere, that kid really exists and is or was abused to create the porn.[/QUOTE]
Not necessarily, it could be illustrated child porn.
Pedophiles are a danger, but just because they have those feelings doesn't necessarily mean there evil. It's not like they want to be pedo's, a lot of them probably feel really ashamed about it. They should just should seek psychiatric help.

except that's not my ideology at all. you're an idiot.
[QUOTE=Valdor;32670697]I don't really even feel it's bad that they broke into the pedophile's home, but no doubt ill be called dumb by pedophile rights activists.[/QUOTE]You're dumb because you're a burglar rights activist, not because we're supposedly paedophile rights activists.
By your logic I guess it would be okay for me to break into someone's house and steal their jewellery and macbook as long as I told the police about the marijuana plants I saw in their basement afterward.

I was obviously being smug.
This thread reminds me of a movie I watched about a month or two ago, called [I]the Collector[/I]. The premise of the movie is a man breaks into a house planning to rob the place (he had been doing construction and stuff there so he knew where all the valuables and stuff were), but when he breaks in, there is already a serial killer there, and he proceeds to [sp]attempt to [/sp] help the family survive.
It was a very gory movie, but I actually found it very interesting. Worth a watch if you have nothing better to do. Had a pretty unique ending.
