Attorney General Gonzalez Gives Graphic Testimony on Child Porn

[MaskTVMaura]

For those who are surprised that CP is so prevalent, just think about the statistics for children who are sexually abused in general. I think the reason there is so much CP is because photography has changed so that people don't have to develop their film at the local photo hut and can instead take digital photos of anything they want and never have to relinquish custody to a third party (who might take issue with that material) to finalize the images.

People sexually abuse kids and now it's so much easier for them to document their atrocities. If we want to make a REAL dent in CP, we have to address child sexual abuse too. The most recent statistics say 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 5 boys is molested, and that each abuser hurts over 100 kids during their lives. That's a lot of material.

Excellent point.
