No trial needed for lolicon life imprisonment?

If I am reading this article correctly.... even when you haven't done any crime at all, none, merely looking at a picture that has a children in it is enough to warrant throwing you in a jail?

Possesing child pornography (which that guy did) is a huge deal in the US.

As far as I saw, it said nothing of lolicon.

All this says, is that if you posses child pornography, they are allowed to jail you for as long as they deem necessary.

Regardless of if you had finished your sentence or not.

The lesson here? Don't have that shit on your computer, and you'll never have to worry about it.

I oughta start a thread about how much lolicon threads bug me

Seems like you skimmed it quickly, first amendment is also being attacked again in this particular event.

""Democrats are delighted by the victory – Obama even recently promoted the lady who argued for indefinite sentences on behalf of the federal government, Elena Kagan, to the Supreme Court herself.

She is on record as having argued that the government should be able to restrict any speech it considers “harmful,” irrespective of the First Amendment""

The quote above was near the bottom of the article. What's there to stop moral crusaders from targeting anime and such.

Count me in.

You're right.

Really there isn't anything to stop them from targetting anime.

Will they? As in actually go so far as to call it illegal (And enforce it)

I doubt it. If the Supreme Court passes something that is blantantly against the 1st Amendment like that, then it's the start of the downfall of this country.

But, it all depends on the interpretation of loli. Is it child pornography? Whatever that ruling is, will define the ability to have it covered under the 1st Amendment or not.

US BS makes me lol.

Being convicted without any trial. That really sucks! I pity the man.

Here's the original source of the such article.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/18/us/politics/18offenders.html

Keeping a person in jail past his sentence limit is illegal and thus unlawful imprisonment?

"Democrats are delighted by the victory – Obama even recently promoted the lady who argued for indefinite sentences on behalf of the federal government, Elena Kagan, to the Supreme Court herself."

Democrats, celebrating a unlawful imprisonment, including the president of usa.

You shut your whore mouth, loli at law threads are important.

Plus as some guy on sankaku commented,

""...
this is sounding really bad...
if they start denying a fair trial to something they can start applying it to everything else...""

And then other part of the article says

""Some states already operate similar laws, but this decision ensures the federal government can now freely override sentences throughout the land.

The solicitor general for Kansas, Stephen McAllister, a supporter of the law, suggests that allowing indefinite civil commitment for all kinds of criminals might now be possible:
“Constitutionally, it might be possible. I don’t have a constitutionally limiting line for what kinds of mental disorders might be permissible and what [might] not. If they lead to danger to others, potentially, they could be covered under such a law.”""

It's quite muddy from right there, basically they plan to expand from there. Seems like that.

U.S. makes simple things into bigger mayhem.

FAIL USA is FAIL

they need to know they're priorities, these sentences needs to go to drug dealers/users and murderers.

No, these sentences shouldn't go to ANYONE, given that they're a violation of our constitutionally protected civil rights.

I'm shocked that the government is surprised at all the armed militias that are being organized around the country now. What did they think would happen?

This is one of those supreme court decisions that reeks of being repealed a short time after it was instated.

No trial is unconstitutional. if this is true(sounds fishy to me), it will soon be overturned.

Unless, IF you got caught. we're lupins right?

You guys forget that usually ALL people who get busted for loli ALSO have actual CP on their computers. Those who DON'T have CP just get unlucky enough to go to a court whose jury THINKS it's CP because they're uneducated fucks who don't know any better and won't bother to.
